Watch Doug Aitken's 'Altered Earth' installation in the Grande Halle in action

很少有艺术家像道格·艾特肯那样把当代艺术带出画廊，进入你的后院-在某些情况下是真的。这位加州多媒体艺术家最著名的是他的视频投影到各种不同的表面，如森林展馆和纽约市街区。他说，“几乎任何事情都可以用作投影面”。

艾特肯的最新关注点是法国南部的卡姆格里地区，他花了几个月的时间来捕捉芦苇状的泻湖、壮丽的动物群和空旷的地理全景，这些都是从罗马时代开始就得到解决的，但此后几乎没有发展起来。今年秋天，“改变地球：Arles，移动图像之城”(Changed Earth：Arles，City of Moving Image)在历史阿尔勒公园(Parc Des Atelier)展出了一个月的生命片段。

在公园的飞机库里，像格兰德·哈勒一样，艾特肯巨大的电影屏幕创造了他所谓的“实体景观的几乎全息视图”。它们在拱形天花板上晃动，就像好莱坞录音室里的奇幻背景，把观众吸引到风景中去。

他称这种效果为“液态建筑”，不过目前还不清楚他指的是场地，它似乎在背景中融化了，还是像蜿蜒的溪流那样引导游客的迷宫般的屏幕布置。

令人敬畏的投影给被证实的地形提供了生动的新生活——一个干旱、不平坦、戏剧性的地形，即使是经验丰富的跋涉者也会在一周内奋力征服。在格兰德哈雷的黑暗中，这些作品都更具传播性。

这次展览是阿泰尔公园重新开发的领头羊.Arles的艺术基金会LUMA已经邀请建筑师FrankGehry为公园设计了一系列跨学科的中心，以帮助它成为当代艺术装置、教育和研究的目的地。

Aitken refers to the installations as like 'liquid architecture', though it's unclear whether he's referring to the venue, which seems to melt away in the background... © Doug Aitken Workshop and LUMA Foundation, 2012. Photography: Robert Leslie
