Islamic Arts Biennale, Jeddah, Saudi Arabia

沙烏地阿拉伯吉達  伊斯蘭藝術雙年展

OMA

The first edition of the Islamic Arts Biennale brings together a mix of ancient artefacts and contemporary artworks, displayed over 120,000 square meters of exhibition spaces, taking over the SOM-designed Western Hajj Terminal. 


第一屆伊斯蘭藝術雙年展匯集了古代文物和當代藝術品,展場面積超過 120,000 平方公尺,佔據了 SOM 設計的朝覲航站樓西邊。

The OMA-designed scenography divides the exhibition space into two complementary parts: 


(1) A choreographed trajectory through a sequence of newly built galleries allows visitors a progressive sense of orientation as they move from one room to another. Inspired by the concept of the Qiblah – the direction Muslims face when they pray – the exhibits manifest gradually in a journey from darkness to light, starting in a dimly lit room filled with 17th-century astrolabes – used to calculate the Qiblah – and concluding in the bright space hosting an installation which incorporates the First Saudi Door of the Ka’bah in Makkah, installed during the reign of King Abdul Aziz. 


Oma 將展覽空間設計成兩個互補的部分:


(1) 沿著精心設計的軌跡,參觀者循序漸進地穿梭在各新建的畫廊中。由「Qiblah(穆斯林祈禱時的方向)」作為主題發想,展品從黑暗到光亮逐漸顯現。最一開始的房間昏暗,擺設著 17 世紀時用來判別 Qiblah 的星盤;最後的明亮房間裡,其中一個藝術裝置上結合了麥加的第一座天房之門,它被安裝於阿卜杜勒.阿齊茲國王統治期間。

(2) Under the terminal’s canopy, a desert-like landscape alludes to the journey of Hijrah – Prophet Mohamed’s journey from Makkah to Madinah. Slopes and slanted walls of various heights, arranged in relation to the geometry of the existing structure, have been built to display the artworks, creating a sense of exploration throughout the visit. Two freestanding pavilions act as reference points in the open landscape, exhibiting artefacts from Makkah and Madinah. In contrast to the rough atmosphere outside, the exhibits in the two pavilions are embedded in a bright, diaphanous screen wrapping the perimeter of the walls.

 

Independent from the theme of the Biennale, a separate gallery named AlMadar, or The Orbit, features items from twelve local and international institutions including Kuwait’s Al Sabah Collection of Islamic art, together with an exhibition that pays homage to the Hajj Terminal – both celebrating their 40th anniversary.

 

在航站樓的遮陽蓬下,沙漠般的景觀映射了希吉拉之旅,那是一段先知穆罕默德從麥加到麥地那的旅程。不同高度的斜坡和傾斜的牆壁,根據現有結構的幾何形狀排列,用於展示藝術品,在整個參觀過程中帶來了一種探索感。在開放的景觀中有兩個獨立的展場館,展示著來自麥加的和麥地那的文物。展館內的展品都鑲嵌在環繞墻壁,明亮且透明的屏幕中,與展館外觀的粗礦形成了鮮明的對比。

 

名為 AlMadar 或 The Orbit 的畫廊,獨立於雙年展的主題,展出了 12 個當地和國際機構的展品,包括科威特的 Al Sabah 伊斯蘭藝術收藏,以及一個向朝覲航站樓致敬的展覽。這兩者都迎來了 40 週年的紀念日。
