Flooded Modernity: Half-Sunken Replica Of Le Corbusier’s Villa Savoye

The installation titled ‘Flooded Modernity’ has been designed by artist Asmund Havsteen-Mikkelsen, the 1:1 scale model of a corner of Villa Savoye by Le Corbusier juts out from the water like a clean-lined modernist iceberg. It?s one of ten projects selected from 90 original proposals that have been cast adrift for the Floating Art Festival, an annual event organized by Denmark?s Vejle Museum.
With Flooded Modernity, challenging the principles on which Villa Savoye was built, Mikkelsen reminds us of today?s turbulent and conflicted sociopolitical scene
