Works+Words: The Artistic Challenge I

Architects from the exhibition Works+Words 2022, the 3rd Biennale for Artistic Research in Architecture, present and reflect on their work.

All of them have a practice of artistic research which examines and explores fundamental problems in architecture. The result of this practice is works and reflections which challenge and rethink how we understand architecture today.

About Works+Words

The 3rd Biennale for Artistic Research in Architecture presents contemporary artistic works of architecture from across the world. Architecture tries to intervene positively in society. It addresses urgent issues and aims to leave the world a better place. Artistic practice in architecture is not about finding new solutions. It investigates the fundamental conditions for architectural practice through open-ended experiments with architectural drawings and models. It is a crucial part of innovative professional practices and demonstrates its significance when a building suggests a new understanding of architecture and a different way of living. Artistic practice is about asking the right questions in the field of architecture.
