项目介绍

来自建筑事务所的描述：近日，Destination Crenshaw项目的第一张效果图在洛杉矶发布。该项目是一条户外艺术文化体验街，总长度为1.3英里（约2.1公里），目的是庆祝洛杉矶黑人发展，项目位于Crenshaw大道。项目的设计灵感来自于社区，由洛杉矶市议员Marqueece Harris-Dawson发起。项目以公共艺术和街道风光为基础，将标志性的街道用作画布，负责设计工作的事务所是Perkins+Will建筑事务所，由Smithsonian学会非洲裔美国历史国家博物馆支持。Destination Crenshaw将庆祝洛杉矶黑人的历史和对洛杉矶甚至是世界贡献。这个项目将于2019年初动工，计划于2020年春天开幕。

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
FROM THE ARCHITECTS:
Los Angeles—The first renderings were released today for Destination Crenshaw, a 1.3-mile-long outdoor art and culture experience celebrating Black Los Angeles under development along Crenshaw Boulevard. Spearheaded by L.A. City Councilmember Marqueece Harris-Dawson, this community-inspired project will use the iconic street as a canvas and anchor for public art and streetscape design. With designs by Perkins+Will, the visionary architectural firm behind the Smithsonian Institution’s National Museum of African American History, Destination Crenshaw will celebrate the historic and contemporary contributions of Black L.A. to the city and the world. The project begins construction in early 2019 with plans to open in Spring 2020.



效果图在前段时间的社区会议上发布，展示了新社区圆形剧场的鸟瞰图，包括市区的天际线、好莱坞标志，还有整个Destination Crenshaw 项目。这个效果图还展示了对世界著名Crenshaw Wall的改造设想，Crenshaw Wall也被称为“Our Mighty Contribution”。这面墙是组成Destination Crenshaw的主要部分，它位于11个全新口袋公园的对面，在这些公园中，人们可以举办各式各样的艺术活动。大道两侧的景观由Studio MLA设计，其中包含有成百上千的绿色植物和其他街道小品。不像其它的传统博物馆，Destination Crenshaw更趋于室外特征。开放、公共的艺术和文化体验将是建筑设计的一大亮点，这也是洛杉矶黑人的创新思维和开拓的精神的体现。

“对洛杉矶和世界来说，Destination Crenshaw是一个历史性的项目。” Harris-Dawson议员说，“我们即将用超过100个独一无二的装置艺术品，和许多美国黑人主题口袋公园来表达想法，文化街道和景观都会进行更新设计，这是洛杉矶黑人的生活表达，同时在社区中融入了创意。”

项目位于Leimert Blvd的Crenshaw大道，到第60条街，人们会在洛杉矶机场全新地铁线的一侧看到这座线性室外博物馆。洛杉矶机场全新地铁线是Crenshaw Blvd大街上的唯一的一条线，而且是洛杉矶郊区地上地下唯一一条主要通廊。Hyde Park站是洛杉矶机场的下一站，人们在这里就可以饱览Destination Crenshaw的全景，而同时这里也成为了来自各地骑行者的主要通道。

“Destination Crenshaw是洛杉矶美国黑人社区的创意庆祝会。” Perkins+Will的项目主要建筑师Zena Howard 说，“我们所构思的是一座表达友好艺术精神的建筑。”

Renderings revealed Saturday at an event for community leaders show a new community amphitheater with an elevated overlook with views of the downtown skyline, the Hollywood sign, and the entire Destination Crenshaw project. The renderings also show off a potential treatment of the world famous "Crenshaw Wall," also called "Our Mighty Contribution.” The Wall, a major component of Destination Crenshaw, will also be opposite one of the 11 new pocket parks and parklets built to house hundreds of art opportunities. Landscaping along the boulevard by Studio MLA will include hundreds of new trees and additional streetscaping. Unlike traditional museums, Destination Crenshaw won’t be bound by walls or ceilings. The open-air, public art and cultural experience will feature architectural designs that capture the innovative and trailblazing spirit of Black L.A.
"Destination Crenshaw is a historic project for Los Angeles and the world,” said Councilmember Harris-Dawson. “The stamp we will make on Crenshaw Boulevard with more than 100 unique art installations, a dozen African American-themed pocket parks, and culturally-minded street and landscaping improvements will be a living reflection of Black L.A. and the creativity that pours out of our community.”
Located along Crenshaw Boulevard from Leimert Blvd. to 60th Street, this linear outdoor museum will flank the new Crenshaw/Los Angeles Airport (LAX) Metro Rail Line. This section is the only segment of the line on Crenshaw Blvd.—and one of the only major corridors in L.A. County—where the train is at-grade versus under or above ground. As one of the first stations upon leaving LAX, the Hyde Park stop and the at-grade length of the line will have clear views of Destination Crenshaw and will serve as the gateway to the City of Los Angeles for riders from across the globe.
“Destination Crenshaw is first and foremost a celebration of the creativity of the African American community in Los Angeles,” said Zena Howard, the project’s lead architect from Perkins+Will. “Everything that we build is simply a backdrop to the innovative, artistic spirit that is alive and thriving here.”



Destination Crenshaw的设计以非洲植物为灵感，那是非洲的一种草，当非洲黑奴被关在船上时，黑奴们把它用作船上的床上用品，这种草在条件恶劣的异国他乡依旧可以繁衍生息。如今，它来到地球另一边，面对恶劣环境的韧性，就像是黑人面对暴力和歧视时的顽强生命。这引发了黑人深刻的共鸣，提醒着美国黑人的历史。尽管多年都缺少资金，洛杉矶的黑人社区已经发展得较为强大与团结，这就像这种植物一样把根深深长入地里，他们深深扎根在洛杉矶南部和Crenshaw District街区。这段历史和黑人精神将会表达在这个项目之中。

Crenshaw区拥有一些当今受欢迎的黑人艺术家，几十年来一直是艺术界的核心成员。2018年夏天，在第一次艺术家集会上，主办方收到了当地艺术家的不同规模的作品，这些作品将会在林荫大道委托制作。第二次艺术家集会的作品将于2019年开始征集。

The designs for Destination Crenshaw are pulled together through Grow Where You’re Planted—a unifying theme inspired by the African giant star grass. Used by slavers as bedding in ships, the grass thrives in alien lands despite inhospitable conditions. Today, it remains a profoundly resonant reminder of African American history, the paths of global dispersion, and black resilience in the face of violence and racism. Like the giant star grass, the Black L.A. community has deep roots that sprouted through the surface and spread across the globe. Despite years of disinvestment, Black Angelenos have been able to create a strong, interconnected, and thriving community, deeply rooted in the Crenshaw District and South L.A. This history and resiliency will be reflected in all aspects of Destination Crenshaw.
The Crenshaw District boasts some of today’s most acclaimed Black artists and has been central to the thriving Black L.A. art scene for decades. A first open call for artists was launched in summer 2018 and hundreds of applications were received from local artists for large and small-scale works to be commissioned along the boulevard. A second open call and selections for commissions will be announced in 2019.



Destination Crenshaw在过去两年中，已经与洛杉矶黑人社区的主要成员进行了合作，确保社区可以参与到项目中来。项目团队成员包括Larry Earl，是1619件展品的所有者，Mayme A.Clayton图书馆和博物馆，以及休斯顿非裔美国文化博物馆的前执行主任，另外还有女演员、作家、导演和制片人Issa Rae，国际知名艺术家、园丁和社区活动家Ron Finley，副主任和首席加利福尼亚非裔美国人博物馆的创建者Naima Keith，以及西海岸最具创新精神的嘻哈企业家Nipsey Hussle。Destination Crenshaw正在与工作室MLA、AMPR Group、RAW International、Bridge Street、Terry A. Hayes and Associates，以及 Artemis Events Company 共同合作。

Destination Crenshaw has been working for the last two years with major figures in the Black L.A. community to ensure that community voices are incorporated into the project.

Clayton Library and Museum and the Houston Museum of African American Culture; actress, writer, director, and producer Issa Rae; the internationally-renowned artist, gardener, and community activist Ron Finley; deputy director and chief curator of the California African American Museum, Naima Keith; and one of the West Coast’s most innovative hip-hop entrepreneurs Nipsey Hussle.
