MIT HTC Forum: PRODUCING GEOPOLITICS
presents
Eve Blau
Hybridity as Condition + Challenge: Beyond Project Zagreb
Tuesday, November 10
6:30 pm
MIT Room 3-133
The European Union is generating a new transnational political geography in Europe that raises a number of questions about the internal dynamics and role of cities in cross-border networks. Focusing on Zagreb – a city currently transitioning into the EU and with more than 150 years of experience of operating in conditions of instability and within transnational political structures – Blau examines how such conditions create opportunities for architecture, and generate new forms of practice and techniques for city making.
The Fall 2009 HTC Forum, Producing Geo-Politics, considers creative production within geo-political systems. HTC Forum events are free and open to the public. Organized by the History, Theory, and Criticism Program of Architecture and Art at MIT with the generous support of the Lipstadt-Stieber Fund.
