The Lisbon Architecture Triennale has released the Talk, Talk, Talk debate series on its Vimeo channel. The series was held as part of its 5th edition, curated by Éric Lapierre. Divided into five major exhibitions, the Triennale explored architectural imagination in one of them—the theme of the Inner Space exhibition and of the debates featured here.
The Inner Space talk series, part of the 2019 Triennale, revolves around the construction of architectural imagination as both a collective and individual process. The duo Mariabruna Fabrizi and Fosco Lucarelli (Socks Studio) defined imagination as the ability to organize, structure, and translate other forms of our own experience of the world. This experience can be direct or mediated through a subject's encounter with images and concepts.
Guest speakers Giovanna Borasi (curator of the CCA), Jacques Lucan (historian and critic), and Jo Taillieu (professor and architect) approach the topic from complementary viewpoints: historical and theoretical, through the building of an architectural practice, and through the development of a collection and a research center.
Held at the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation, this session aimed to deepen the reflection proposed by the core exhibition, Inner Space, presented at the National Museum of Contemporary Art—a convent converted into a museum space.
