NEW PRAXES, NEW TOOLS
Emerging Slovenian and Austrian Architectural Practices
Thursday, 6. October 2022
Festsaal, TU Wien, Karlsplatz 13, 1040 Vienna
Dialogue: 18:00 - 21:00
Pop-up Exhibition: 21:00 – 24:00
The aim of the event is to highlight the work of contemporary Slovenian and Austrian architectural practices, which are interesting for the way they approach architectural topics and tasks. Nine Slovenian and ten Austrian architectural practices will be presented, which started their independent professional work in times of global financial and climate crises. The crises have led to shifts in thinking about the tasks of architecture, a rethinking of the connection between architecture, society and ecology, as well as the way (architectural) practice is organised.
Through a series of short statements, the selected practices will present their ways of working, elaborate positions on the tasks of architecture today and demonstrate their approaches towards communicating current architectural topics with the general public.
