Aurélien Lemonier is an architect and has been a curator in the department of Architecture at the Centre Pompidou in Paris since 2008. In this lecture, he will examine the history of grottos in architecture and garden design. In relation to Katrin Sigurdardottir’s work, Supra Terram, he will contextualise the highly symbolical motif of the grotto as an artificial, man-made space that imitates natural form.
