About this Item

The international architecture symposium "space condition" initiated by Roger Riewe at Graz University of Technology accompanied the exhibition "Latent Utopias" curated by Zaha Hadid and Patrick Schumacher. Renowned contemporary architects, designers and architecture critics were invited to elaborate upon the most important issues concerning architecture of today and tomorrow. Is it conceivable that architecture can provide concepts that no only determine forms, contents and spaces but that also evoke self-generating structures? Where is the dividing line between vision and reality, between portrayal und implementation? This publication documents the various positions in discussion minutes, pictures and interviews and provides an in-depth insight into current architectural theory discussions. 640 gr.

About this title

Synopsis

The international "Space Condition” symposium hosted by Roger Riewe at Graz Technical University in the autumn of 2002 was intended to complement the "Latent Utopias” exhibition curated by Zaha Hadid and Patrik Schumacher last year. Almost all major contemporary architects, designers and architecture critics commented on the subject of architecture’s importance to society, which was a discussion area of particular importance. This publication is a compilation of discussion minutes, images and interviews that reflects the participant’s differing positions and the current status of the architectural-theoretical dialogue.
