Advanced Topics in Modern Architecture: Positions: Cultivating Critical Practice

In Positions, we critically examine the characters, language, and concerns that greet us upon entering the field in the year 2023 and try to recreate and understand their recent trajectories and histories, traversing multiple times the period between 1970s and today. Our objective is to collectively develop tools and forms of critical thinking that help us navigate the map of contemporary architectural practices. Along the way, the historical events that unfold around us and our personal life experiences are important and welcome participants in our conversations.
