Project: UNDERGROUND MUSEUM (2012)
research theme: | urban culture |
Directors: | Michael Schindhelm |
Ekaterina Varionchik was born in Moscow, where she graduated from Moscow Institute of Architecture. At Strelka Ekaterina was engaged with the Moscow underground railway, considering it as a living underground museum. She has come to a conclusion that if the central stations are objects of cultural heritage outside, than outside the Central Administrative District the majority of them is deprived of cultural components. Ekaterina has offered a number of actions at “Izmaylovskaya” and “Partizanskaya” stations to make them more attractive for the district inhabitants. Ekaterina is currently working at the architectural studio SPEECH Tchoban & Kuznetsov.
