Genevieve Gauckler



"Genevieve Gauckler is a Paris-based artist and creator of a world of eccentric characters, blending them seamlessly into her everyday environment. She can already look back on an accomplished career in graphic design, illustration and art direction, having worked for French record label F Communications (Laurent Garnier, St. Germain), on music promo projects for Dmitri from Paris, Pierre Henry and Sparks with directors Kuntzel & Deygas.

Recently Genevieve worked on Beck's The Information album and website, experimental videos with Pleix, and exhibitions at Colette in Paris, Tokyo and Someday Gallery in Melbourne. She spends any free time traveling around the world, giving lectures, exhibiting work and obsessively taking photos to fuel her ever-expanding photomontages.

Architect: Kavellaris Urban Design

"We wanted the house to be more than just a facade. More than just a message or a graphic stuck to a building. Our building was not an urban canvas paying tribute to Venturi’s “decorated shed”, instead the external facade could be experienced internally and is also a multi functional device that constantly transforms the built form from solid to void, from private to public, from opaque to translucent. By day the building is heavy and reflective and by night inverting into a soft translucent permeable light box. The operable wall or the absence of the facade enabled us to remove the idea that houses are static.
The use of operable walls, doors, curtains and glass walls enables the occupants to change the experience and environment. This architectural manipulation of space blurred the boundaries between inside and outside, the public and private realm. The manipulated spaces overlapped and borrowed the amenity and context of it’s surrounding environment."
