Off-season at Chateau La Coste, a few miles north of Aix-en-Provence, and the rows of vines are bare tendrils, entwined. Between them, a few solitary visitors in hats and scarves are on a walking tour of the 44 architectural curiosities hidden in the 600-acre grounds – from Frank Gehry’s pick-up-sticks-esque pavilion to Andy Goldsworthy’s underground woven-tree cave, past Bob Dylan’s ironwork freight car, and down to Sean Scully’s giant geometric Corten steel framework. Dotted around are a number of cranes, construction machinery and workmen.
普羅旺斯艾克斯(Aix-en-Provence)以北幾英里處的拉科斯特莊園(Chateau La Coste)正值淡季,一排排葡萄藤露著光禿禿的卷須,交織纏繞在一起。在這中間,幾位戴著帽子和圍巾的零散游客,正在徒步參觀隱藏在600英畝土地上的44個建筑奇觀——從弗蘭克?蓋里(Frank Gehry)撒棍造型的展館,到安迪?戈茲沃斯(Andy Goldsworthy)位于地下的編織樹洞穴,再經(jīng)過鮑勃?迪倫(Bob Dylan)的鐵藝貨車,然后直至肖恩?斯庫利(Sean Scully)那巨大的幾何型科爾頓鋼架結(jié)構(gòu)。在這四周,還遍布著起重機、建筑機械和工人。
