36th & Samson : Book 5 by Na Kim (2023)


 36th & Samson (Book 5)

Na Kim

First Last Booklet Series

Philadelphia, PA

(c) 2023

Quoting an insert 

"This series of images was created as a sketch for Na Kim's installation. FFC on 6, 7,  8 she brings her two dimensional investigations to life in space and at architectural scale. The installation is inspired by architect Adele Maude Santos' original vision of ICA's building, which embraced the potential of its location as a nexus where the Penn campus meets the city, using large glass windows to connect people with the art inside and life on the street. Bringing renewed attention to the building's gridded structure. FFC on 6, 7, 8 spans from the eastside windows into the lobby, mezzanine, and beyond, animating what Kin describes as the "social conscious' of ICA. 

I am glad to have had that insert in the booklet : I thought it was a poor knock-off of Mondrian. 

Appreciate the correction.
