《世界建筑》的读者朋友,

本期《世界建筑》刊登2013年秋开幕的奥斯陆建筑三年展。

奥斯陆建筑三年展(OAT)始于1998年,是北欧地区最大的建筑事件,在2013年已至第5届。本届展览题为“绿色大门背后”,重点关注可持续性及其对建筑的影响。展览汇集了来自200余个建筑事务所的600余个实物与实例作品,引导人们可持续性是如何在建筑项目的实践与研讨中被诠释的,以及这种诠释所营造的一种新的道德观念。

挪威是北半球纬度最高的国家,也是斯堪的纳维亚国家中最晚获得现代意义上的民族独立的国家。独特的历史与地理特点使这一土地上生活的人们对自然有着与众不同的认知:既非天然舒适的温床,亦非人工征服的对象。从早期强悍的维金人,到后来匮乏的农业社区,再到富有的现代挪威人,带有充分的敬畏之心去感激自然的给予,以最有效的方式去利用资源维系自身的生存,并以此寻求与自然的共存,是一种不断被延续的态度。有介于此,当代世界的最重要的概念之一 ——“可持续发展”在30年前被这个国家的首相首次提出也就不足为怪了。

如果一提到“绿色”(不论它后面跟随的是“建筑”、“城市”还是“人居”),您想到的首先是技术,那么,“绿色大门背后”展览会出乎您的意料。展览试图向人们揭示的是,为了实现可持续的共同未来,技术与实证主义可能是必要的,但远远不是最重要的。真正关键的问题在于态度,在于人性所必然承载的对自身生存与其环境间关系的反思,在于自然、舒适、工具、诗意、理想间的矛盾与碰撞。展览通过建筑实例档案、专题展陈以及历史线索梳理等3种方法呈现了30余年来围绕可持续性这一概念所形成的知识网络,并以此为起始点,激发观众对可持续性形成自己的观点与思考。

我们在此必须对策展人团队、比利时Rotor组年轻的策展人们致以全部可能的敬意。这一展览对相关知识点进行梳理的严谨与完整程度不亚于一部小型百科全书的编制,是在巨大的智力与时间投入基础上形成的。观者如能以长时间的关注和深度的思考加以阅读理解,必能获得高度的心智满足。与我们的时代里司空见惯的那些快餐式的、只能使我们变得愚蠢的展览相比,这样的展览真是一剂良药。

Dear Reader,

In this issue of World Architecture we publish the Oslo Architecture Triennale 2013.

Initiated in 1998, the Oslo Architecture Triennale (OAT) is the biggest architectural event in the Nordic Region. Reaching its fifth edition in 2013, it focuses on sustainability and its impact on architecture this time, under a catchy title "Behind the Green Door". It brings people to the reflection on the interpretation of sustainability in architectural projects and rhetorics, and the new collective morality upon it.

Norway is the north-most country in the world. It is also the latest Scandinavian country to gain modern independence. Its unique historical and geographical feature has given the people living there a unique view on nature: nature is neither easy and comfortable, nor atrocious and untamable. From the mighty early Vikings to the diligent medieval farmers to the affluent contemporary Norwegians, the respect to Nature is kept. The notion of resource efficiency and the semiotic relationship with the environment are always embodied. It is therefore not surprising that one of the most influential term today, namely "sustainable development", was coined by a Norwegian prime minister some thirty years ago.

What comes to your mind when you hear the word "green"? If it is technology, then the OAT 2013 is bound to shake you. The exhibition tries to reveal that, despite the indispensability of technology to sustainable development, there are more important things to a sustainable future than mere technology: attitude, reflection on survival and environment, contradictory relationships among nature, comfort, tools, ideals and poetics. By displaying an archive of selected projects, a categorical study on a series of topics, and a timeline of shifting ideas, the exhibition weaves a web of knowledge formed in the last three decades. Taking it as a starting point, it invites the visitor to interpret and hypothesize for themselves.

We have to say Kudos to the young Belgian curator group Rotor. The undertaking of the curating work, particularly its coherent and complete sorting of the related knowledge, is nothing short of amazing. This is an exhibition that comes out of a massive investment of intelligence and time, and can be highly intellectually rewarding if the visitor is willing to put time and in-depth thinking in it. Today, we are so surrounded by fast-meallike, silly and cheerful exhibitions. An exhibition of such quality is simply healing, to say at least.
