Erika Kiss, Director of the University Center for Human Values Research Film  Studio and Lecturer of Comparative Literature and European Cultural Studies, is presenting a film installation at the Time, Space, Existence Exhibition at the Venice Biennale. The film juxtaposes the architectonics of the universe with the human-made architecture of the built environment. The research film grew out of a Princeton collaboration with Chris Tully, professor of physics, and Sigrid Adriaenssens, professor of civil and environmental engineering and Director of the Program in Mechanics, Materials, and Structures. The film entitled “Assembly & Disassembly” is viewable on an LED panel in the garden of Palazzo Mora adjacent to the Angelus Novus Vault, a structure built based on the innovative engineering of Adriaenssens' lab. The exhibition runs until November 26, 2023.
