Jorge Pardo – Pier

Jorge Pardo – Pier

increaseJorge Pardo – Pier

The pier made of California redwood by American artist Jorge Pardo runs almost as a matter of course from the northwest bank of the Aasee out into the lake about forty meters, where it becomes an asymmetrical, six-sided platform.

Through his materially conscious, purist reaction to the thoroughly landscaped lake, Pardo connects austere, early modern architecture with the traditional building methods seen in Asian gardens. The site reflects not only the current desires of the public for peace and quiet as well as for contact with others, but it also posesses an altogether urban attitude toward nature.
