A planet and its round it. Began his career in the 1950 s. Designing cars made of plastic that material inspired all his future designs aerodynamics and ergonomics have always played an Important Role in his visual language. For decades i tried to get european coming to switch over to soft rounded functional and aerodynamic shapes i didnt succeed as many. But the all volunteer evolove 20th Century International design kept barreling full speed ahead. Kalani worked in japan the us france and switzerland as well as germany. Everything he made his unmistakable signature. Many of his ideas were too expensive to produce they exist only as prototypes displayed in exhibitions. To many people kalani designs were outlandish but his inventiveness clearly knew no limits in 2003 he even tackled the world of Fashion Designing uniforms for the Hamburg Police force. We were to provide an example in the city and develop uniforms that a forceful formidable and functional spic ive been through. In 2004 he and his studio team in calls for germany worked on a radical new idea the design of an entire city shape. Like a human body. Is when you look at this thats the head of the administration the lungs are the park and sensibly the power station is in the middle of the park its. The city in Southern China was one of colonies many castles in the sky. In fact about 70 percent of his ideas were never implemented but luigi kalani never stopped thinking outside. Of our years with art curator Klaus Lichtman wanted to make a statement and now that hes made it its almost tragic just how timely it is for forests is a replica of a european forest thats been erected in a football stadium in austria and the installation reminds visitors what it would be like to live in a world where trees think this only as an exhibit and its caused quite a stir. Anyone expecting to see penalties of the vertices stadium in clark in fort lee in for a bit of a surprise theres not much soccer going on in this forest. For his project the swiss artist klaus lipman was inspired by a drawing by the austrian artist max pite now called the an indie attraction of nature. Basically what im doing here is trying to produce a quite radical picture and im dealing with an underlying theme that next point now also have both of us independently of each other and thats perception. How do we deal with our perceived nature with. Visitors are not allowed to touch or into the forest. And wanted to create a warning more new meant about the Climate Crisis it took him 6 years of planning to realize the full farce project. He works together with the swiss Landscape Architect in so anyhow its nice to be staff. These are the difference of incentives here so those there are the black pines youve seen theyve been replanted 16 tiles. 299 trees were planted between the goal posts creating a mixed forest which has become quite rare in europe these days max prajna whose artworks also feature in new yorks museum of modern art is the visionary who imagined a stadium forest over 40 years ago. But it is it was not only wild mixed forest. But if you see a story just great that the forest is different from our on my way over here i was really scared that they had managed to capture my forest but now im really glad that they do it and will do it in the photo soon these get off the. Whole forest is a sustainable project visitors can enjoy it until the end of october the stadium opens tonight at night afterwards the trees will be transplanted again and will set down their roots not far away for the long term. Amazing that trees can take so much punishment and my colleague Melissa Holroyd has joined me in the studio welcome melissa this is an absolutely huge undertaking from the looks of it tells a bit more about it its the largest installation in austria have taken such as ive just seen some 300 trays between 8 and 40 meters tall some of them white as much as 6 tons and they brought them all into this stadium and thats very significant for a lot of reasons i think been for one we often count the destruction of forests into. Of football stadiums we often hear this so when so many football stadiums with the forest are destroyed every minute is also the fact that a football stadium is a place where people go to switch off and to relax and to not think and its exactly there that theyve put this very important installation and you know sort of asked the question what is our relationship to nature and also what is the wider game thats being play and hes really not allowing us any of that usual distraction in that in that feting this is obviously very expensive and i believe that fled to quite some controversy tell us about that it has cost a fair bit but i mean but not a penny of that money was taken from taxpayers and this is a myth that continues to persist. The most private fund its all privately funded and there has been a lot of controversy surrounding the project littman was personally attacked into in the lead up to the opening the stadium itself was built for the european football championship in 2008 and is seen as the legacy of you haida a long time far right leader who died later the same year theres an election coming up in the area and the right wing parties have been wrongly saying that this is funded by taxpayers money and that their football stadium has been taken over by a swiss artists fake news there but clearly it is difficult to kick a ball around in there while as the entire forest then you know what is the local team actually doing yeah youre right yeah i mean obviously they cant. These trees that there has been taken over a little bit that is true and the local team has been put out the stadium was chosen because of its size and also because its not used that much but then the local team got into the Europa League so now for the next couple of weeks theyre going to be playing in another stadium ok but the amazon burning and all of the forest fires that weve seen all over the world in siberia. Southern france over the summer just to name a couple the timing of this seems crazy the tree has really become such a powerful symbol hasnt it the timing of this installation is is just is pretty incredible really and its also been a big surprise for lytton as well in recent months as weve seen the Climate Change is very much in the news with what the future fridays 5th and many people many experts across the world say this is it were in a do or die situation so yes the timing is is really critical. This this installation in a lot of ways is also stronger than partners drawing implies his drawing speaks about a dystopian vision where we have to look at a forest in a zoo like situation but we can never look at the forest in a zoo like situation because we need forests to survive in order to breathe in order to breathe ok well it definitely does is an installation that gets us to think twice about trees for forest on until the end of october in clogging for the whole ride thanks very much for bringing us about background story. Well no forest was too deep for i like sound of one who moderates and certainly no mountain was too high oppression aristocrat was an avid explorer and naturalist he was also a polymath and he was the 1st person to observe and actually describe this phenomenon of what we call human induced Climate Change on september the 14th he would have been 250 years old and heres a book tip to get a bit of a feel for his eccentric genius.
