ARC 544: Architecture under the Sign of Catastrophe: Resilience and Resistance

Postgraduate course

Project description

Recurring catastrophe, from earthquakes and eruptions in the pre-industrial era, to the bombing campaigns, tsunamis, and climate changes of the post-atomic present - all now under the sign of the Anthropocene and Global Warming, with attending enforced migrations, conflicts over resources, and political turmoil, have challenged any residual belief in the progressive theories of Modernism. This course examines the ways in which architectural practice and theoretical discourse, has historically responded to catastrophe.
