2010-12-16 Final Presentation and Exposition: Workshop_01 Spatial Strategies

Transformation of the building(s) of the ancient GDR secret service in Cottbus (Nordrand 45)
The SPATIAL STRATEGIES workshop has the unique opportunity to use the former GDR-Ministry of Secret Service building in Cottbus as a space and starting point to create and develop individual proposals in all scales for the future of the building. The course focus on artistic and scientific methods of analysis and on the understanding of the history and its‘ traces; we ex- periment different approaches of spatial, aesthetical and programmatic transformations and discuss design in the fields of his- tory of structures and buildings, as well as a various range of artistic work – primarily first SPURENSUCHE (individual search for traces of history) and second the formulating of a position as commentary of the existing or as a concept for a temporary or long distance new function. In this methodological frame, we will examine the reflection of spacial, political, historical and sociocultural components of the building and its immediate surroundings.
