Collective Art Paper Aesthetics By Noa Haim At The Walker Art Center

From July 2 until September 3rd the Collective Art Paper Aesthetics by Noa Haim is exhibited

Sat, Jul 2 - Sat, Sep 3  2016

This summer as the construction encompasses the Walker, the Art Lab will be transformed into a construction zone of its own. From July 2 through September 3rd, during gallery hours, children and families are invited to help design and build a collaborative paper structure. Fold and connect polygon pieces to participate in the Paper City project and influence ways that this marvelous architecture evolves over time.

Paper City was designed by artist/architect Noa Haim of Collective Paper Aesthetics, the Rotterdam-based design initiative she established in 2008. The project was inspired by Buckminster Fuller’s exploration of the relationship between objects, space, and experience. Stop in often and watch the structure grow throughout the summer.
