Andres Lepik – Social Architecture | TALK (DE)

Architecture shapes the society in which it emerges. Its social relevance is especially evident in the  responses to such problems as political or ecological migration, overpopulation, marginalization, and slum formation. Andres Lepik, Director of the Architekturmuseum München, was a curator at the Museum of  Modern Art in New York, where he realised the influential exhibition »Small Scale, Big Change« in 2010. In this lecture, Lepik presents building projects in the Global South that improve the living conditions of local populations – requiring minimal financial investment, but all the more personal initiative and creativity.
