Swedish painter Alessandro Battisti, better known as “ETNIK” began his journey as an artist over twenty years ago, beginning with painting his large-scale murals in suburban areas and anywhere else he could find. This was how he came to discover cities, and the concept of “city” has long been at the core of his art. First featured on our blog here, ETNIK’s work today is a colorful and geometric variety of murals, paintings, and sculpture inspired by the city environment and underground culture of his current home in Florence. He describes his abstract cityscapes as a “wild style”, and creating art is his way of understanding the world.

Medieval Armor for Modern Art: Kukje Gallery by SO-IL

For its 13,500 square-foot Kukje Gallery building in Seoul, the New York City firm Solid Objectives – Idenburg Liu (SO – IL) devised a way to disrupt the stereotypical white box—not from within, but from the outside. And they did it using chain mail. SO-IL partner Jing Liu described it as acting like “shrink wrap,” saying: “We needed something that would do what the rest wasn’t doing—tie all the pieces together.” Indeed, hemmed in on nearly all sides by existing, irregularly shaped buildings, SO-IL had pulled out circulation functions so they protrude from the building’s exterior: a concrete cylinder for the elevator; a metal stair leading to a roof garden; a swoop of curving glass descending to the basement. “It’s a very diagrammatic building,” says Liu. “Basically we took the optimal gallery proportions and then added a stair, an elevator. Everything just is what it is.” SO-IL are one of over 100 other architects, artists, and designers taking part in the inaugural Chicago Architecture Biennial this October.
