Architecture

Think Nonument! Together

Architects! Artists! Researchers! Art Historians! Activists! Writers! Photographers!

For the last two years, the Nonument Group has researched and intervened into the changed circumstances of twentieth-century architecture and monuments. We defined nonuments as twentieth-century architecture, monuments, public spaces and infrastructural projects that have lost or undergone a shift in symbolic meaning as a consequence of political and social changes. We unveiled a wealth of stories from the past, physical remains and intangible traces, as well as many absurdities of the present, unseen ideological forces and newly formed fascinations.

BIVOUAC

In the centre of Lausanne (Switzerland), the forthcoming transformation of the 50’000 m2 of La Rasude site is the occasion for an ambitious artistic project, LABOR, conceived as an ephemeral urban laboratory. Planned over 4 years, LABOR will bring together artists, architects, universities, the population and experts to reflect on the current and future challenges facing cities. In 2020, the BIVOUAC exhibition proposes a first artistic immersion in the hitherto closed spaces of La Rasude by presenting ephemeral works created specifically for the site. On this occasion, LABOR launches an international call for projects addressed to artists, architects and urban planners as well as to anyone professionally concerned by the development and the fabrication of urban space.

Call for submissions: Manchester - A Generic City?

Manchester -  A Generic City?  is a photography book focusing on architectural photography of Manchester in order to explore the idea of The Generic City (an idea proposed by Rem Koolhaas), and to what extent Manchester has come to meet the criteria for this. There has been a dramatic increase in the presence of postmodernist architecture within the city, due to a range of influences in the wake of globalisation, but there still remains a huge presence of architecture which references the city’s role in the industrial age. In a city where buildings of both eras stand prominently next to each other, are they competing visually, or is this a complementary relationship?
