Lecture Series
HOUSING AND…
This lecture series brings the question of housing into prominence. Not only does it aim to look at the role of architects, but also and mostly, it explores the various ways in which contemporary housing practices have been built, thematized, debated and mediated. It moreover calls for a multi-lenses approach, which covers from questions of intersectionality, human rights and environment.
It invites a diverse group of guests to examine Housing in between architectural production, the historical, socio-political and territorial context, the heritage and cultural making processes, as well as the public space and the public debate.
This event has been conceived by Carsten Ruhl and Daniela Ortiz dos Santos together with a workshop and a seminar in the scope of a Blended Intensive Program from the Erasmus mobility program.
The fourth lecture scheduled for the 4th of December 2024 has been created in cooperation with the Museum Giersch der Goethe-Universität (MGGU). It invites artist Zilla Leutenegger, who is contributing for the current exhibition OUR HOUSE at the MGGU.
