International seminar
EMERGING ARCHITECTURE & URBANISM 1 : (New) Contextualism
Ratusan karya arsitektur hadir disekeliling kita dengan kecepatan luar biasa. Namun sedikit yang mampu memberikan makna. Sedikit yang bisa mengkritisi mutasi sosial budaya kota. Kekinian kebanyakan berakhir menjadi akrobatik geometri semata.
• Bisakah kekinian arsitektur menyela identitas budaya ?
• Mungkinkah kekinian arsitektur mewadahi mutasi sosial?
• Dapatkah kekinian arsitektur merenungi kiamat ekologi ?
• Mampukan kekinian arsitektur meretas isu-isu urbanitas ?
Seminar ini akan mengulas pemikiran dan menampilkan karya-karya terpilih dari para arsitek dan perancang kota internasional dengan beragam perspektif dan pengalaman yang mendalam dalam merespon isu-isu kontekstual baik identitas, mutasi sosial, ekologi maupun urbanitas.
Waktu: Minggu, 31 Augutus 2008
