Beiträge zur Demokratisierung Österreichs nach 1945
17.10.2019 – 24.02.2020
Eröffnung: Mi 16.10., 19:00
Pressekonferenz: Mi 16.10., 11:00, Az W Bibliothek
Erstmals werden in einer Ausstellung das Baugeschehen und dessen Akteure und Akteurinnen im Nachkriegs-Österreich im Diskurs des Kalten Krieges beleuchtet und kontextualisiert. Wie sich zeigen wird, sind die Jahre der Besatzung für die architekturpolitische Weichenstellung nach 1945 prägend.
Im Gegensatz zu Berlin wird Wien bis jetzt nicht als Schauplatz einer politisierten Architekturdebatte zur Zeit des Kalten Krieges wahrgenommen. Nach der Befreiung durch die Alliierten etablierte jede der vier Besatzungsmächte ein vielfältiges Kulturprogramm. So wurden Architekturausstellungen von Großbritannien, Frankreich, Amerika und der Sowjetunion als Bühne für kulturelle, ideologische, ökonomische und technologische Transferleistungen genutzt. Wenig bekannt bis vergessen sind die Auswirkungen auf die österreichische Architekturszene.
Die Ausstellung ist ein Plädoyer für eine Revision des nationalgeschichtlichen, architekturhistorisch geprägten Narrativs. Der Kampf der Systeme nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg war allumfassend und setzte sich im kulturellen Wettrüsten fort. Die globale Dimension des Ost-West-Konflikts und dessen Auswirkung stehen im Zentrum der Neuvermessung des österreichischen Architekturdiskurses nach 1945.
Ein Hauptaugenmerk liegt auf der Einbeziehung von bisher nicht erschlossenen Primär- und Sekundärquellen, die in der Zusammenschau ein Sittenbild der Nachkriegsmoderne ergeben.

Die siebente Ausgabe des internationalen Open Air Architekturfilmfestivals steht heuer unter dem Thema „Critical Care. Die Zukunft reparieren“.
Die vier Filmabende im Hof des Az W widmen sich der Rolle von Architektur und Urbanismus in Zeiten des menschengemachten Klimawandels und einer zunehmenden sozialen Polarisierung. Wo ist Architektur Teil des Problems, wo zeigt sie neue Lösungswege? Gibt es Alternativen zu einer vom Kapital dominierten Architektur und zur Ausbeutung von Ressourcen und Arbeitskräften? Parallel zur Ausstellung „Critical Care. Architektur für einen Planeten in der Krise“ präsentieren die Filme zukunftsweisende Projekte wie auch kritische Perspektiven auf ökologische und soziale Schieflagen. Aus zahlreichen internationalen Einreichungen werden Dokumentationen und Kurzfilme zu einem unterhaltsamen und informativen Programm zusammengestellt, das das Publikum einlädt, aktiv am Diskurs teilzunehmen.

The jury, which has highlighted the success of these contemporary solutions in maintaining the original spirit of heritage, has selected 12 finalists, four winning projects, one special mention and one special restoration award from a total of 239 works.

PARTAKE exhibition opening / english language program
v4Participation: Fostering education on participatory processes in urban and regional planning
18.30 - introduction
19.00 - opening ceremony and discussion
Date: 6 June 2019. 18:30-20:30
Venue: KÉK - Contemporary Architecture Centre (1111 Budapest, Bartók Béla str. 10-12.)
Exhibition PARTAKE is a showcase of the participatory research done by the students of the Department of Architecture and Urbanism from the Faculty of Technical Sciences, University of Novi Sad. During the 2019 summer semester, students were working on three specific assignments related to the spatial issues of Novo naselje neighborhood in Novi Sad. The work was conducted through a participatory process communicating the interest and preferences of the citizens. Having a focus on the process - and not on the final design - exhibited works stress the need to integrate theory and practice of public participation and represent the educational input in creating a long term partnership with local community. These ideas reflect the goals of the project v4Participation: Fostering education on participatory processes in urban and regional planning – a collaborative platform consisted of university and civil society partners from Serbia, Hungary, Czechia and Poland and financed by the Visegrad Fund.

Exhibition Critical Care Architecture for a Broken Planet
A planet in crisis. The earth in intensive care. Man-made environmental and social catastrophes are threatening to render the planet uninhabitable. The situation is critical and, dominated by the interests of capital, architecture and urbanism are caught up in the crisis. The exhibition 'Critical Care' shows how architecture and urbanism can contribute to repairing the future and keeping the planet and its inhabitants alive.
The exhibition ‘Critical Care’ is an appeal for a new approach, for a caring architecture and urbanism. 21 current examples from Asia, Africa, Europe, the Caribbean, the USA and Latin America prove that architecture and urban development do not have to be subservient to the dictates of capital and the exploitation of resources and labour.
The relationships between economy, ecology and work are redefined in each of these projects. The instigators of this care are extraordinarily diverse groups of people: activists, lawyers, anthropologists, artists, but also city councils and companies, working together with architects and planners. Care is always concrete, the specific local conditions are the starting point, as the exhibition shows, including earthquake-proof and sustainable village development in China, flood protection through traditional low-carbon building techniques in Pakistan and Bangladesh, the diverse conversion of modernist buildings in Brazil and Europe, an ecological community land trust in Puerto Rico, the revitalisation of historical irrigation systems in Spain, new concepts for public spaces and mixed urban districts in Vienna, London and Nairobi. The exhibition ‘Critical Care’ shows how architecture and urbanism are helping to revive the planet. The repair of the future has begun.
