FreshLatino at Storefront for Art and Architecture

Curated by Ariadna Cantis, curator of the FreshLatino exhibition at the Instituto Cervantes, in collaboration with Eva Franch.
Storefront for Art and Architecture, in collaboration with Instituto Cervantes, presents the inaugural event of their new Manifesto Series with the FreshLatino seminar Emerging Latin Territories.
If we accept that America was a laboratory for modern movement in an unequal and fragmented way, then what is the role of Iberian America today, within the panorama of emerging architecture and contemporary thinking?
Confronting ourselves with this question we came up with the idea to produce a manifesto that diagnoses the world’s architectonical situation within a different [ Iberian American] perspective and at the same time establish certain values that question the current directions within the architectural discourse and propose new projectual material and vectors of thought.
There will be a two days seminar between October 25th and 27th divided in two acts aimed to be held in the following institutions. Simultaneously with the FRESHLATINO video installation exhibition.
ACT 1 | 25 OCT | Opening
ACT 2 | 27 OCT
More information after the break
EMERGING LATIN TERRITORIES
The seminar intends to be a declaration of strategies and visions to understand and project a new approach towards the construction of our built environment from a Latin-American perspective within a global world.
In order to operate with different degrees of intensity within this larger framework, the conversations will be structured in 2 different sessions with the aim to envision through different lenses multiple processes of observation and projection of our built environment.
1/ Material and Sensorial – Urban Territories
2/ Environmental – Geopolitical Territories
The conversations will take place in a twofold strategy where three individuals will present a 15 minute manifesto for an Emerging Latin Territory followed by a discussion between them orchestrated by a moderator. There will be 5 presentations per session.
