as part of an exhibition opening later this month at munich’s haus der kunst, ‘collaborations’ is the second documentary film by director oliver hardt on the work of british architect david adjaye. the movie features interviews with adjaye’s collaborators, a roster of influential figures in the art and cultural world, and examines a significant number of his architectural projects, including public buildings, residential houses, artist studios and exhibition spaces globally situated and developed over the past fifteen years.

one such project is the working studio of brooklyn-based artist lorna simpson, located in brooklyn, new york. for a guided tour of the building, from simpson herself, watch the video below.

the film was commissioned by the haus der kunst in munich and the art institute of chicago as part of the first comprehensive survey exhibition on david adjay’s architectural work, ‘form, heft, material’, curated by okwui enwezor and zoë ryan. the exhibition opens on january 30, 2015 and remains on display until may 31, 2015.
