Announcing Open to the Elements, an intensive week-long research and design residency presented by Headlands Center for the Arts for those who are and would like to be architects, philosophers, environmental designers, artists, and ecologists.
Headlands’ urban wilderness, situated in a military base turned National Park just over the Golden Gate Bridge outside of San Francisco, poses everyday challenges of balancing human needs with natural and cultural resources.
Led by Observatorium—a Rotterdam-based artist collaborative dedicated to public art and place making—Open to the Elements is a multidisciplinary platform designed to envision the possible future rehabilitation and re-purposing of an historic building: Fort Barry’s early twentieth century army gymnasium.
