Architects Design a Twisting Bridge That Doubles as a Sculpture and a Museum

By Jessica Stewart on September 25, 2019

Architecture firm BIG has made an impressive entry into Norway with their first project in the country—a twisting bridge that crosses the Randselva river. By functioning as a museum, a bridge, and a piece of art, Bjarke Ingels’ studio has created a stunning showpiece called The Twist. Located within the Kistefos Sculpture Park in Jevnaker, Norway, the modern bridge creates a circular loop for visitors to the park and also serves as a new contemporary art space.

인상적인 노르웨이의 비틀어진 다리      건축회사인 BIG은 랜델바 강을 가로지르는 꼬인 다리인 노르웨이에서의 첫 번째 프로젝트로 인상적인 노르웨이에 진출했다. Bjarke Ingels의 스튜디오는 박물관, 다리, 그리고 예술품의 역할을 하는  The Twist라고 불리는 놀라운 작품이다. 노르웨이 제브네이커의 키스테포스 조각공원 내에 위치한 이 현대적인 다리는 방문객들을 위한 원형 루프를 만들고 새로운 현대 미술 공간으로서의 역할도 한다. BIG는 2015년에 처음으로 교량 국제 공모대회에서 우승했다. 1000m2의 알루미늄으로 덮인 다리는 비틀어진 형태로 두 강둑을 연결하며, 그 형태를 통해 하류에서 고도로 쉽게 이동할 수 있다. 사실, 강 양쪽 사이의 지형조건은 고르지 않은 높이차 문제를 일으켰고, 그 후에 트윅이라고 알려진 기발한 디자인으로 바뀌었다. 이 현대적 다리는 1996년 사업가인 크리스틴 스베아스가 그의 가족의 전 목재 펄프 사업 부지에 세운 Kistefos Museum and Sculfure Park에 등장한 가장 최근의 예술 작품일 뿐이다.  Anish Kapoor, Olafur Eliasson, 그리고 Fernando Botero는 모두 이 조각 공원에서 일을 하고 있고 이 단지는 전시 갤러리들과 산업 박물관도 갖추고 있다. Twist의 추가로 접근성이 향상되고 박물관에서 더 많은 전시회가 열릴 것이다. 황기철 콘페이퍼 에디터 큐레이터 Ki Chul Hwang, conpaper editor, curator

BIG first won an international competition to create the bridge in 2015. The 1,000-square-meter (10,764-square-foot) aluminum-clad bridge connects the two river banks, with its twisted form allowing it to move from a lower to a higher elevation with ease. In fact, this uneven elevation between the two sides of the river created the problem that then transformed into the ingenious design known as The Twist.

This contemporary bridge is just the latest art piece to appear at the Kistefos Museum and Sculpture Park, which was founded in 1996 by businessman Christen Sveaas on the site of his family’s former wood pulp business. Anish Kapoor, Olafur Eliasson, and Fernando Botero all have work in the sculpture park and the complex also features exhibition galleries and an industrial museum. The addition of The Twist increases accessibility and will also allow for even more exhibitions within the museum.

“What’s really incredible about Kistefos is the sculpture park. The idea of the museum was more of an add on, but by making it into a bridge, it really became an integral part,” shared Ingels. “It’s not like you go to the museum then you go to the sculpture park and then you go home, you go through the sculpture park, roughly halfway you go through the museum and then you continue.”

The delicate twisting form is surprisingly comprised of completely straight lines, with the raw aluminum strips placed in a staggered fashion to create the illusion of a curve. The exterior twist also has an impressive effect on the interior, where it creates a petal-like form mid-way through the visitor’s journey across the space. In doing so it provides an effective transition from the windowless space accessed from the main entry into the light-filled north side of the building. Fitted with floor-to-ceiling glazed windows, this side provides previously unattainable views over the river and old pulp mill.

“[The twist] connects an introverted vertical gallery to this extroverted panoramic room, where you have spectacular views of the river and the mill. The darkness to the lightness. The art and the nature,” Ingels explains. “It felt like it was so conceptually clear that where the two things meet, the twist happened. The twist is this blatant translation from one end to the other. It makes this sort of third room.”

The Twist is already functional. Currently, the Hodgkin and Creed – Inside Out exhibition is on view until November 17, 2019.

BIG has created a contemporary bridge called The Twist in Norway.

Located at Kistefos Sculpture Park, it functions as a museum, sculpture, and bridge.

 

The bridge’s design cleverly accounts for the uneven elevations between the river banks.

 

The interior is clad with white slats of Douglas Fir to create a light, airy atmosphere.

The north side of the building has spectacular views over the river and old pulp mill.
