Synopsis
What is a Push Button? Is it the future? A relic of the past? A little of both? Push Button House investigates the process of creation and creativity of Adam Kalkin, an architectural pioneer whose work strikes a delicate balance between art and architecture.
Push Button House is a behind-the-scenes look at the build and installation of Kalkin's follow-up to his sensational 2007 Venice Biennale work featuring a shipping container that blossoms into a sleek modern pre-fabricated home. First-person observation and Kalkin's own words shed light on an artist/architect who defies anything traditional, profiling this hyperactive, yet endearing artist.
Part performance piece and part sculpture, the Push Button is an engineering and artistic feat that captured the attention of both the artistic community and international public as a bold, yet playful vision on the intersection of art and technology.
