Venue: Garden of the Austria Pavilion.
After over six months of discursive exchange in and beyond the boundaries of PLATFORM AUSTRIA, we are pleased to announce a commemorative finissage event: Speculations of the City – Reflections on Platform Urbanism.In this public discussion, Vyjayanthi Rao and Pedro Gadanho, thinkers engaged in curatorial studies of the city on a global scale, will converse with Helge Mooshammer and Peter Mörtenböck to bring to conclusion the many strata of PLATFORM AUSTRIA and its formal realisation. Reflecting on the speculative nature of platforms and the ethos of productivity that accompanies their proliferation, the speakers will consider the impact of these layers of “fore-telling”, which continually shape how cities are produced, and the way we study them. These analyses will gesture towards concluding remarks for Hashim Sarkis’s urgent key question: How will we live together?
This event will be open to all visitors of the Biennale Architettura 2021.
