Wing 19
Wing 19 is the new exhibition building of Z33, House for Contemporary Art, Design & Architecture. The architect Francesca Torzo puts forward strong ideas about the nature and positioning of architecture itself. In addition, the building responds to the existing context, with Wing 58, the Jenever Museum and the adjoining beguinage. This results in a building that challenges visitors, curators and artists. They will not be given virginal white boxes, but spaces with a distinct character. This makes the building a gift, not only for the art that will be housed there, but also for the visitors and the city.
This publication is a walk through the building in text and image. We give a look behind the scenes with photographs by Kristof Vrancken, Gion von Albertini and Olmo Peeters.
