Description
Carlos Bunga: Something Necessary and Useful By Emily Butler Published by Whitechapel Gallery in 2020, this catalogue accompanies a new commission by Portuguese artist Carlos Bunga. Bunga creates dynamic site-specific ephemeral structures using mass-produced materials, which invite viewers to rethink their physical and emotional experience of space and architecture. The fully illustrated book documents the commission, including new installation photography that captures the transformation of the structures over time. The gesture is complemented by an invitation for dancers to respond to the space before and after its transfer, further highlighting the fragile nature of urban structures. Through his work, Bunga explores the symbolic potential of ruins and the importance of creation and destruction in shaping our understanding of space and architecture. This catalogue provides a unique insight into the artist's practice and offers a fascinating perspective on the relationship between art, space, and human experience.
