공간은 판테온을 모티프로 함
라틴, 이탈리아, 교회의 공간성을 이식히고 장중하고 차분한 분위기를 주는 것
돔형 공간과 천장의 뚫린 구멍이 해시계처럼 기능(눈을 뜻하는 라틴어 오쿨러스)
원래 계획은 천장을 뚫어 공기가 통하게 하는 것이었으나 뭔가 추락해 관객이 다칠지 모르는 안전 우려로 원안대로 구현되지는 못하고 유리로 덮음. 설계자 안도 다다오의 빛의 교회와 같은 문제.
로스코도 그렇고 예술가들이 제도 종교에서 벗어난 어떤 누미노제의 종교성을 추구하는 것 같다. SBNR. 보수적 조직과 관리 체계에 소속되지 않으면서 지기가 좋은 파워스폿에서 심신의 안정, 마음챙김을 하는 것.
이교도의 교회인 판테온과 2천년 전 로마의 건축 모티프를 현대 동양이라는 전혀 다른시공간에 구현. 원주 미술관에 재현난 일종의 서양템플 스테이다.

The British artist Antony Gormley made his name designing sculptures that fit seamlessly into their surroundings.
He installed dozens of life-size figures on a beach, where some are swallowed by the surf every few hours. Others stand in farm fields or on city rooftops, staring mutely back at us as abstract meditations on how we relate to our environment.
But Gormley, 75, took a different approach for his latest big installation.
Instead of designing sculptures for an existing landscape, he worked with an award-winning architect to create a new home for them: an underground art cave inspired by a 2,000-year-old Roman dome.

The art cave, which has a diameter of 82 feet, was heavily inspired by the Pantheon, a marvel of ancient engineering that is nearly twice the diameter and includes tombs for Italian kings.
Like the Roman structure, the cave has a dome-like structure and an “oculus” — a hole in its ceiling that allows beams of sunlight to slowly rove through its interior like a sundial.
Gormley calls the cave a “concentrated place of witness,” a phrase that evokes a house of worship. The allusion makes sense. Like the Pantheon — built as a pagan temple and later consecrated as a church — it has the solemn vibes, dim lighting and echoey acoustics of a religious structure.

Gormley and Ando initially wanted the dome’s oculus to be open to the sky like the Pantheon’s. But the museum, concerned about safety risks, said the oculus had to be covered in glass or protected by a railing. They chose the first option.
