GALERIA AMANTIKIR started as a project for JORDAN SCHÖNNING in AUG 2022. JORDAN SCHÖNNING is Architect Marcello Jordan my husband and me. Last week of September we attended the premiére opening in Penedo. Penedo is located in Rio de Janeiro state 3 hours drive from the city of Rio in the mountains of Serra da Mantiqueria.
Galeria Amantikir is one
building consisting of two commercial spaces.
There are wooden decks welcoming
in front and in the back of the building.
Galeria Amantikir is a space
for Brazilian Art curated
by Nina Garcia.
The gallery has a bar
and serves snacks.
Special attention has been
taken to all of the
trees on the site.
Both outside the building
as well as indoor.
The trees that we here
long before the gallery
define the building.
An arborist aproach
we are very proud of.
The word for tree is
árvore in Brazilian portuguese.
The building is connected
but divided in two.
The white facade is
Galeria Amantikir
and the green facade
will be a day spa.
Inbetween the two conneted housebodies a tree has
been kept and at
the foot of the tree
a pool for turtles. The pool is connected with a indoor section. The turtle pool is outdoor
and indoor aswell in
the Galeria Amantikir.
