TRACCE, a series of FREE ONLINE TALKS.

UCTEA Chamber of Architects of Turkey is organizing a series of online conferences called “Designing with People”. With the support of the Global Award for Sustainable Architecture program, in these conferences, valuable laureates of the program will be giving lectures talking about their approach in architecture and/or urban planning, their ethical and design approach, and their ideas and development of participation processes. Moderated by Prof. Dr. Deniz İncedayı, President of the Chamber of Architects of Turkey, Prof. Dr. Jana Revedin, Founding President of the Global Award for Sustainable Architecture, and Marie-Helene Contal, Director of the Department of Cultural Development, Cité de l’Architecture & du Patrimoine will be giving introductory speeches about the award program which started in 2006, and continues under the patronage of UNESCO. The award program recognizes five architects who share both the principles of sustainable development and a participatory architectural approach to the needs of society, in both the northern and the southern hemispheres.

Exploring urban cultural ecologies, systems and new spatial practices - from one form to another.

The 2021 John Dinkeloo Memorial Lecture will be delivered by Leong Leong Founding Partners, Christopher Leong and Dominic Leong.

EdX MOOC on Global Housing Design

This conversation series is part of Curating Architecture Across the Americas (CAAA), an initiative that brings together institutions, curators, and scholars to discuss the role of architecture exhibitions and collections in the expanding world of curatorial practices and cultural debates.

In this talk, Pamila Matharu and Lauren Fournier will be in conversation on the occasion of the launch of Fournier’s new book Autotheory as Feminist Practice in Art, Writing, and Criticism (The MIT Press, 2021). The two will discuss ideas that Fournier takes up in the book, including the state of the “autotheoretical turn” in recent feminist art, the role that histories of intersectional feminist activism play in contemporary conversations and trends, the ethics of disclosure and exposure, and the relationship between autotheory, autofiction, and other terms, like auto-ethnography. The two will draw from their backgrounds as artists, writers, and curators involved in feminist organizing in Toronto and elsewhere to discuss the use of autobiographical materials in critical and conceptual work. Books will be available for purchase.

Join d.talks in conversation with K. Jake Chakasim and Neena Verma on diaspora and belonging.

Minnette De Silva’s unique position in the mid-20th century exemplifies cultural and local specificity in dialogue with a global modern movement. Her architectural practice was expressive of the materials, techniques, and history of her native Sri Lanka as well as her participation in a network of international architects and designers. As a result, De Silva’s legacy traces the complex and multi-directional vectors of modernity.

Please join us for the new SCIAME Lecture Series, titled And/Or. “Geographies of Absence and Loss” will feature Maram Masarwi and Ahlam Shibli, hosted by Sean Anderson, for a discussion of art and architecture.

The Settler Colonial City Project is a research collective focused on the collaborative production of knowledge about cities on Turtle Island/Abya Yala/The Americas as spaces of ongoing settler colonialism, Indigenous survivance, and struggles for decolonization. Trained both as architects and as architectural historians, SCCP co-founders Andrew Herscher and Ana María León will discuss the work of the collective as an intersection of practice, research, and pedagogy. In light of current prompts for change in architectural curricula, they will problematize how institutions have embraced and conflated depoliticized notions of decolonization and anti-racism.

DEADLINE EXTENDED!
Project Colette together with the The Institute for Advanced Architecture of Catalonia wishes to support this new generation and help them propose a new sustainable architecture and urbanism capable to face the challenges of our century.

New Generations is a European platform that investigates the changes in the architectural profession ever since the economic crisis of 2008 by analysing some of the most innovative emerging practices at the European level, providing a new space for the exchange of knowledge and confrontation, theory, and production. The project was conceived by Itinerant Office in 2012.

CANactions School, Brno University of Technology - Faculty of Architecture, the City of Warsaw, the Museum of Modern Art in Warsaw, and the Romanian Order of Architects Bucharest, are introducing a new educational post-graduate program, to embrace and establish international knowledge exchange between institutions and organizations based in post-socialist states, in order to tackle 'Alternative Models' — for Collaboration, Ownership, Governance, Polycentricity – in urban scenarios across their regions.
The consideration of political, social, cultural, and historical background in these cities and regions imposes questions, problems, and challenges universal to all of these geo-locations.

We open a space to explore the purpose of design as a tool for disruption and reinvention in never-normality, where change is the new constant.
