QA &

with BJARKE INGELS, the Lead Architect Behind TPAC’s New Performance Home

Bjarke Ingels at Tennessee Performing Arts Center. Photo by MA2LA.jpg

Bjarke Ingels, the Danish architect, founder, and creative partner of Bjarke Ingels Group (BIG) working on the conceptual design for Tennessee Performing Arts Center’s new performance home, sat down with TPAC to share his creative process and what makes this project so unique.

TPAC: How would you describe the balance of art and science in architecture and how does that factor into your approach?

BJARKE INGELS: In many ways, I am using both the left and right side of the brain. On one hand, you have to trust in your intuition and go with your hunch with a certain confidence. On the other hand, you have to solve a lot of real problems by asking many pointed questions and listening to the thoughtful answers you receive.

In architecture, you have to be able to put into words exactly why something is relevant – exactly why something is interesting and why we would want to pursue this.

Architecture really is an art and a science, and it’s by bringing these two spheres together that you accomplish something with the potential to be interesting or beautiful, but also practical and realizable.

TPAC: Designing a performing arts center is considered one of the hardest, most intricate projects.

What makes them so unique?

INGELS: Wagner called opera the Gesamtkunstwerk, which means “the total work of art” because you have all the arts coming together in a singular expression. The music,

drama, theatre, storytelling, set design, and costumes need to be funneled through a single delivery.

It is so interesting for an architect to design one of these cultural spaces because the architecture is that single expression.

TPAC: As an architect with projects all around the globe, what are you wanting to bring to Music City?

INGELS: As an art form, architecture is a bit like portraiture.

I often get the question, “In architecture, isn’t it annoying that you always have to listen to clients with their demands and requests?” But because architecture is like portraiture, you may ask, is the Mona Lisa an expression of DaVinci as an artist, or an expression of Mona Lisa the woman, the subject?

The answer is both. A great portrait captures the likeness of the subject, but also the character, the personality, the soul – and maybe the potential of the subject.

In this case, the subject is TPAC, which is very much alive and active in the city and is going to be one of the cornerstones of the new Nashville. And it could be a building that expresses to the city, “Here is a performing arts center where you can enjoy the performing arts,” and a building that expresses to the rest of the country and the world what kind of a state and what kind of a city Tennessee and Nashville are.

TPAC: Why did you say yes to this project?

INGELS: A performing arts center is a project where an architect can unleash all the aspects of the art and the profession. And, it isn’t very often that a significant city sets out to create a new one. In Europe, many of them are from former centuries. So, that in itself is an amazing opportunity and worth traveling far for. Also, I think Nashville really is a city in America that is having a renaissance. It is about to redefine itself as it goes into a new stage of its evolution as a city. It is a very exciting thing to be part of as an architect.

TPAC: How do you envision TPAC’s new performance home impacting Tennessee and Nashville in the future?

INGELS: One thing that is important to understand about architecture is that our city isn’t the way it is because it always has been. It is the way it is because that is exactly how far the people that came before us got in creating a framework for the life they wanted to live. Because we know that life is always evolving, the life of the city is always evolving. The city we live in, the framework that was created; it was for how the city was, not how the city is today.

As an architect, you don’t know what building you’re going to design when you begin. You discover it along with everyone else and arrive there together. I think we’re arriving at something that will be a unique expression of Nashville today and will allow the people of Nashville and citizens of Tennessee to see themselves in a new way.

A scene from The Simon & Garfunkel Story. Photo courtesy Maple Tree Entertainment.

THE SIMON & GARFUNKEL STORY IS NASHVILLE-BOUND STORY BY

Robert Viagas Coming to TPAC in February, the immersive concert-style show The Simon & Garfunkel Story chronicles the amazing journey shared by the folk-rock duo, Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel. It tells the story from their humble beginnings in the New York City folk world, to their incredible success as one of the best-selling music groups of the ’60’s, to their dramatic split in 1970. The show culminates with the famous “The Concert in Central Park” reunion in 1981 with more than half a million fans in attendance.

Simon & Garfunkel’s perfect harmonies and songs that poignantly captured the times made them one of the most successful folk-rock duos of all time.

The North American tour of The Simon & Garfunkel Story uses huge projection photos and original film footage, featuring a full live band performing all the duo’s hits including “Mrs. Robinson,” “Cecilia,” “Bridge Over Troubled Water,” “Homeward Bound’ and many more.

Big kisses for Harley. @annaliese.wilbur FANNY BRICE (1891–1951) was a trailblazer in the entertainment world.

She was born to Jewish immigrants and became a star, building a career in vaudeville, theatre, film and radio.

Ms. Brice made her stage debut at Frank Keeney’s Theater in Brooklyn in 1906 and it became clear that she

encore was destined to become a showbiz legend. In 1910 she was contracted by Florenz Ziegfeld for his 1910 Follies and she became Broadway’s highestearning star. She performed in 11 Ziegfeld productions and headlined the 1921, 1934, and 1936 Follies, where she performed her most famous character, Baby Snooks. Ms. Brice would continue to perform Baby Snooks for a weekly radio program until the end of her life. In 1918, Ms. Brice married Nick Arnstein and the couple had two children together. She married songwriter and stage producer Billy Rose in 1929; they divorced in 1938. A beloved barrier-breaking comedienne and performer, Ms. Brice was honored with two stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Ms. Brice’s career was instrumental to the future of women in comedy. Her life story and rise to stardom inspired the musical Funny Girl.

ISOBEL LENNART (Book) (1915-1971) was born in Brooklyn. Afflicted by polio as a child, Isobel became an avid reader, especially of movie magazines.

She became a screenwriter for MGM (Love Me or Leave Me, Inn of the Sixth Happiness, The Sundowners, Two for the Seesaw). She married actor-playwright John Harding and had two children, Joshua and Sarah. Some 24 films, three Academy Award nominations and one Writers Guild Laurel Award for Lifetime Achievement later, she turned to playwriting with Funny Girl in 1964. A Tony Award nomination for Best Musical followed and she wrote her last screenplay for the film adaptation in 1968. Ms. Lennart died in a car accident in 1971. Funny Girl was deemed “culturally, historically and aesthetically significant” by the Library of Congress (2016).

JULE STYNE (Music) (1905-1994).

Broadway: Gentleman Prefer Blondes, Peter Pan, Bells Are Ringing, Gypsy, Funny Girl. He is considered one of the greatest composers in the history of American musical theatre.

He has composed legendary hits such as “Everything’s Coming Up Roses,” “The Party’s Over,” “Let It Snow!,” “People,” “Diamonds Are a Girl’s Best Friend” and Oscar-winning “Three Coins in the Fountain.” Jule Styne was elected to the Songwriters Hall of Fame, Theater Hall of Fame and is a Kennedy Center Honoree.

MARGARET STYNE (Special Material).

Margaret Ann Bissett Brown began her career as a model and actress.

She was married to composer Jule Styne, and together they composed “What Do Happy People Do?” Upon Margaret’s death, Funny Girl producers announced, “Margaret was a brilliant storyteller who represented her husband Jule Styne’s genius legacy with creativity and imagination… Her Spirit will be imbued in our Broadway production of Funny Girl.”

BOB MERRILL (Lyrics). Broadway composer-lyricist and screenwriter.

Unlike most of his contemporaries, Bob could not read or write a note of music, but would plunk out his melodies on a toy xylophone.

Nonetheless, he became one of the most prolific songwriters of the 1950s with such hits as “How Much Is That Doggie in the Window” and “Mambo Italiano.” In the late 1950s, Bob composed music and lyrics of New Girl in Town, Take Me Along, Carnival
