FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE<\/h4>\n

OfficeUS<\/em>\u00a0announced a few days ago the premiere of\u00a0The Architects<\/em>, a film by Amie Siegel that cuts transversally through the city of New York, moving through ten architecture studios-from Fifth Avenue to downtown to Brooklyn- unveiling the operational territories and landscapes of contemporary global architecture production. The film will be presented on the\u00a0occasion\u00a0of the\u00a0closing of OfficeUS<\/em>, the project for the U.S. Pavilion at the 2014 International Architecture Biennale in Venice.<\/p>\n

The film will be presented at stage G inside the Arsenale, within Monditalia from\u00a0November 17 to November 23, 2014.<\/h3>\n

Commissioned by Storefront for Art and Architecture<\/a> as part of OfficeUS<\/em>, the U.S. Pavilion at the 2014 International Architecture Biennale, La Biennale di Venezia,\u00a0The Architects<\/em>\u00a0presents a singular visual unfolding, deploying silent conversations among the architectures, locations, objects and characters that inhabit the picture frame, raising questions of scale, agency and power.<\/p>\n

Parallel tracking shots through the working offices chart the office typology through sameness and difference, revealing the reappearing elements of the spaces of architecture production: the long horizontal desks, screens, renderings, models, framing the wide spectrum of practice from large firms to smaller studios, between the lens of the camera and the view of Manhattan, always and only, just outside the window.<\/p>\n
