滑板教堂是一座位于亞內拉（阿斯圖里亞斯）的老教堂。Iniciativas Habitat公司（簡稱IH公司） 最先將它收購下來，對其進行了初步的修復。“教堂突擊隊”組織隨后對其實施了改造，使之成為了一座滑板愛好者的天堂。

教堂曾經屬于一片圣巴巴拉炸藥廠的服務建筑群。西班牙內戰結束后，炸藥廠停工，該建筑群也被遺棄。幾年后，IH公司的卡西米羅·費爾南德斯和他的孩子們買下了這座教堂，并與伙伴們一同決定在此建造一個滑板坡道，把教堂內部改造為一個文化展覽空間。

IH公司與“教堂突擊隊”在沒有任何制度支持的條件下開始了自己的造夢工作：在教堂內策劃舉辦了從音樂會到滑板錦標賽等各類活動，他們不辭辛苦，樂在其中。這個教堂在他們的努力營造下逐漸成為了一個年輕文化的殿堂。

2014年，國際知名的西班牙藝術家歐庫達·圣·米蓋爾造訪了這座教堂。在教堂的開放概念和活躍氣氛的感染下，歐庫達提議在它的穹頂和四壁上作畫，用這種傳統的教堂裝飾做法進一步提升空間的品質。

在歐庫達的作品中，有一個反復出現的形象——卡奧斯星。它是一個色彩絢麗的不對稱羅盤，不斷提醒人們：在哪或做什么并不重要，你自己的方向和目標才是你唯一的行動指南。這一點很好地呼應了滑板教堂的空間概念，因而使這個項目顯得更為驚艷。

歐庫達與他的執行團隊Ink and Movement，在一個眾籌平臺（Verkami）上發布了項目的信息，籌到了足夠的資金。所有參與者和贊助人都可以挑選一件歐庫達的藝術產品作為回報。

藝術家從2014年11月23日開始工作，7天后完成了整個教堂室內的繪畫。滑板教堂于12月10日向公眾開放，開幕時邀請到了滑板界明星丹尼·里昂為滑道“開光”。

這無疑是歐庫達最重要的藝術作品——一幅繪制于藝術史中經典媒介上的畫作；這一創意也很快撥動了文化領域的風向標，為當代藝術的表達開辟了新的空間。（張裕翔 譯）

The so called Iglesia Skate is an ancient temple located in Llanera （Asturias） acquired in 2007 by the company Iniciativas Habitat， donors and precursors of the restoration initiative， and later converted by the collective Church Brigade in place of pilgrimage for skate culture lovers.

Built as part of the complex that once housed and gave services to workers in the explosives factory Santa Barbara， it was after the end of the Spanish Civil War when the company closed down and its facilities were abandoned. A few years ago，Casimiro Fernández and his sons acquired the church as an investment after a lifetime devotion to the international distribution of contemporary furniture （Iniciativas Habitat）. precursors that alongside a group of friends decided to build a skateboard ramp within the church to host art and cultural exhibitions， reconverting space and function of the building， always in a popular fashion.

Without institutional support of any kind，in the purest DIY tradition， Iniciativas Habitat and the Church Brigade crew slowly shaped their own dream: from concerts to skate championships through barbecues and， of course， plenty of worn soles. They gave identity to this place and turned it into a temple to house his passion for skateboarding and to encourage youth culture in an unbelievable location: a church.

It is not until late 2014 when the artist Okuda San Miguel， an international representative of Spanish young emerging artist， visited the church and admired the new interpretation of the uses for such a space and the concept of meetings and activities taking place there. Somehow he visualized the perfect complement to the spirit of the new Skate Church， and proposed to express that conceptual paintings on its walls and vaults as always in churches.

In Okuda's imagery there is a recurring figure， his iconic Kaos Star， depicting a colorful and asymmetric compass that come to say that it doesn't matter where you are or what you are doing，the only important direction is to have your own references to achieve your goals， something that was clearly perceived there leading to thinking of such an amazing project as KAOS TEMpLE.

Together with Ink and Movement， his management and communication team， they published the project in a crowdfunding platform（Verkami） and reached the amount needed to make it possible. All the participants， art patrons of the twenty-first century， could choose their rewards between different types of artistic products produced by Okuda.

The artist began painting the church on November 23 and spent 7 days completing the artwork. The Skate Church was reopened to the public on December 10 and honored the presence of professional skateboarder Danny Leon， who had the mission to be the first one to ride the renewed temple.

There is no doubt that this is the most important work in Okuda's career to date， painting on one of the most characteristic media in art history； a creative expression that has quickly become a landmark of cultural convulsion promoting new spaces for contemporary art expression.

評論

魏春雨：該項目以類似“眾籌”的集資平臺形式募集設計資金，并通過大膽而浪漫的藝術活動DIY的介入，激活了廢棄的教堂，成功將之轉化為富有激情與浪漫精神的場所——滑板教堂，將功能進行了異化，并置了優雅的古典結構美與當代藝術審美，提供了一條輕型、多元的建筑有機更新之路。

Comments

WEI Chunyu： This project raised the design fund through a fundraising platform， in a way similar to "crowd funding". And by introducing a bold and romantic artistic activity， DIY， into the design， it activates the abandoned church and successfully transforms it into a place full of passion and romantic spirit - a skateboard church. The design diverts the original function and presents the elegant classic structural beauty together with modern artistic aesthetics. Moreover， it provides a light-weight and pluralistic path for the organic renovation of architecture.

崔光海：改造是一件由內而外的創造性活動，他們做到了把當代藝術和古典風格建筑融為一體，信眾的教堂轉變成滑板運動的“圣殿”，繽紛的色彩涂畫在傳統天頂畫的位置，組織愛好者參與代替了權威獨立完成。這種操作機制、功能和藝術風格的共同轉換才保證了這次更新的有趣和成功。

CUI Guanghai： Reform is an inside-out creative activity， through which they accomplished integration between modern art and classical style architecture， and transformed a church for believers into a "temple" for skating sport， where colorful paintings replaced traditional frescoes on the ceiling as amateur participation turned out to be independently organized instead of by authorities. Owing to the synchronized transformation of manipulation mechanism， function， and artistic style， both fun and success have been guaranteed in this renewal.
