David Chipperfield – Revisiting Modernism / TALK (EN)

25 February 2016, 6 pm, Vitra Design Museum

David Chipperfield’s buildings are timelessly elegant with a strong connection to their architectural environment and historical references. His activities as an author and exhibition creator have also had an important influence on contemporary architecture. In 2012, he curated a highly regarded edition of the Venice Architecture Biennale under the title »Common Ground«. As a member of the jury for the reconstruction of the Masters’ Houses at the Dessau Bauhaus, Chipperfield joined the intensive debates on the history and future of the Bauhaus. In his talk, Chipperfield gives insights into his work. Free admission, registration: events@design-museum.de
