Gastvortrag Juliane Greb im Rahmen der LV 'Gebäudelehre und kulturelles Handeln'

Moderation: Eva Mair

Wechseljahre
Auf der Suche nach einem hoffnungsvollen Blick in eine von Ungewissheit geprägte Zukunft sind einige Projekte entstanden (oder im Entstehen), die alle etwas miteinander zu tun haben und doch sehr unterschiedlich sind. Wie beim deutschen Beitrag zur diesjährigen Architekturbiennale „Open for Maintenance“ ist das Anknüpfen an und das kritische Hinterfragen von bestehenden baulichen und gesellschaftlichen Strukturen zentraler Ausgangspunkt der Arbeiten, in denen - manchmal mit schmutzigen Händen - Handlungsspielräume ausgelotet werden.

Kurzbiografie:
Juliane Greb founded her architectural practice based in Ghent in 2015. The office, which she is running in partnership with Petter Krag (°1978) since 2017, is dedicated to an anti-exclusive architecture, which is accessible in a social, physical and emotional sense. In 2022, Büro Juliane Greb and Summacumfemmer were awarded the DAM Architecture Prize for their cooperative housing project “San Riemo” in Munich-Riem. The practice recently received recognition in Belgium with the project VDK&Cube4 factory, featured in the Flanders Architectural Review. In addition to her architectural practice, Juliane Greb has contributed to the theoretical discourse on affordable and community-oriented housing, including on the editorial team of ARCH+. In recent years she has been teaching at the UAntwerp, TU Delft and is holding the International Visiting Professorship at the PBSA Düsseldorf.
Juliane Greb and Petter Krag together with ARCH+ and Summacumfemmer have been selected to curate the German pavilion at the 18th Biennale Architettura di Venezia in 2023. The exhibition “Open for Maintenance / Wegen Umbau geöffnet” is exploring topics such as repair, maintenance, and care, as well as new alliances and forms of solidarity in architectural practice.
