You'll need dependencies in your project.json.

"Microsoft.AspNet.StaticFiles": "1.0.0-rc1-final"

Note: ASP.net MVC by default look into wwwroot folder for static content. However, if you want to change it, you'll need to override it into Startup.cs

var staticContentFolder = new DirectoryInfo(env.WebRootPath).Parent;
if (staticContentFolder != null)
{
    app.UseStaticFiles(new StaticFileOptions()
    {
        FileProvider = new PhysicalFileProvider(
            Path.Combine(staticContentFolder.FullName, "Contents")),
        RequestPath = new PathString("/Contents")
    });
}
