Room for art? - three talks on rooms for art.
What do the new buildings for art look like? Has art changed to the extent that it demands radical changes in architecture? What sort of place is the art room, and how does the architecture govern the possibilities of art? In a series of discussions we will focus on the art space from various perspectives.
Envisioning art rooms, Oct 25, 2 - 4 p.m.
How does one build for the unexpected? Contemporary art is constantly undergoing change. How does one take this into account when designing new spaces for art?

Intimate and public rooms, Nov 22, 2-4 p.m.
What sort of place is the art room? How does art create a room that exists in the field of tension between the public and the intimate?

Does the new art need new buildings? Dec 14, 2-4 p.m.
What demands are presented by the new art, and in what way does the architecture govern the capabilities of the art institution?
