The guiding principle of Architecture without building is ‘start with the content’. There is a need to ‘be able to show something’, and this in turn requires a space, an architecture. Architecture without building sets out to ‘be at the service of something else’, without adapting to De Vleeshal. Spaces and art exhibits both have their limitations, and Architecture without building seeks to bridge the gap between them. Friedman’s design for De Vleeshal is a three-dimensional module consisting of 500 rings, a spatial structure in which works of art can be displayed. He calls this an ‘iconostasis museum’. The architectural features of the Iconostasis are not permanent, but can be used in various ways for various purposes, and removed, shifted, altered or renewed at any time.
