临时微都市主义——北京城市建筑双年展的一种类似城市设计的展览方法

Temporal Micro-Urbanism——A Near Urban-Design Exhibition Methodology for the Beijing Urban and Architectural Biennale

本文研究和追溯“2021年北京城市建筑双年展未来·家园及2020先导展多元·共生”展览空间的设计的方法论。展览空间的呈现反映了“城市建筑”的双年展定位。在空间策略上,这种临时性的场所设计,应用了城市设计的空间规划和“风貌控制”理念,是一种微都市主义的体现。2020先导展的整体空间设计以“九宫格”结合十字轴线作为空间模型,体现了北京城市空间的特点以及对未来双年展的展望,是双年展永久标志的具象化。展览内容包含了城市、建筑、科技、艺术等未来展览应具备的所有元素,以此体现“多元·共生”的主题。2021双年展以“柔性网格”延续了先导展的整体格局来容纳具有丰富多样性和差异化的内容。分展场之一——西单更新场则是从商场中庭的空间特点和临近长安街的区位属性获取了灵感,以“银河与星系”将空间划分为主题大街和独立空间。三个展览空间都是对北京城市空间的一种解析,并从中汲取了空间规划的策略,是从城市设计的方法转化到了展陈空间的城市建筑文化缩影。

This paper traces and analyzes the exhibition design methodology for the “Beijing Urban and Architecture Biennale 2021 Future·Home and the 2020 Pilot Exhibition Diversified Coexistence”(BUAB). The spatial design methodology reflected the discourse of the biennale “urban” and “architecture”. Implementing urban design methodologies, specifically Spatial Planning and City Scape Control, these temporal exhibition spaces reflected a mode of micro-urbanism. The “nine-zoned-grid” and “cross axis” for 2020 pilot exhibition is a microcosm of the Beijing city, a realization of the Biennale Logo in space and a speculation toward the future biennale. Showcasing the four themes in its curatorial: Urban, Architecture, Technology, Art,the Pilot Exhibition encompasses all the elements necessary for future BUAB Exhibitions. The 2021 themed exhibition further developed the previous system with its flexible grid in order to mediate among richly diverse and differentiated exhibition contents. “Xidan The New” had its exhibition site located within the atrium of a shopping center, taking its inspiration from the proximity to the Chang’An Street, dividing the site into the themed avenue and independent spaces, named its spatial system “galaxy and constellations”. The three exhibitions sites were interpretations of the Beijing urban layouts, and took their spatial strategies from the urban planning, transforming urban design strategies into exhibition designs that showcases urban architecture culture.
