Architecture of Infinity (german, EN subtitles)

Christoph Schaub, 2018

Last year the film in Vals had to be canceled due to a thunderstorm. We won't let that stop us and are showing Christoph Schaub's work this year. He explores the magic of sacred spaces with the architects Peter Zumthor, Peter Märkli, Alvaro Siza Vieira, and artists such as the light artist James Turrell and the musician Jojo Mayer. The film goes far beyond church buildings. The artists think about what constitutes spatial spirituality and search for the "spiritual life" in construction, fine arts, and nature.
