About the
Event

Architecture is a document of cultural and stylistic history, a hoard of knowledge on technical and economic history, and an advocate of regional knowledge networks and their transfer. Institutions such as museums, authorities for the protection of monuments and private initiatives are taking great efforts these days to preserve the cultural heritage. Construction, however, is only one of architecture's many facets. Our event will focus on the question of how constructed space, with its different layers of information, can be communicated to a broad public in an open-minded and comprehensible way. What media and methods for communicating architecture appear promising at the moment? And how can a better understanding of the significance of preserved architecture serve as the basis for an examination of contemporary architectural work?
