COMMUNICATING ARCHITECTURE
Frankfurt Book Fair 2016 | October 19. - 23.2016 | Hall 4.1, Stand J76
Today, books are more often chosen for the topics they cover than for the name of the publisher behind them.
The architectural publishers JOVIS (Berlin) and Park Books (Zurich) have decided to use this circumstance as an opportunity to launch a completely new form of collaboration and book presentation at the 2016 Frankfurt Book Fair.
During this year’s book fair (October 19–23) we will present new releases from both publishing houses at our joint stand, with each day centering around one specific topic from the areas of architecture and urbanism. We’d like to invite authors and editors, as well as institutions to visit our stand to learn more about their core areas of interest in architecture and to participate in furthering this knowledge through mutual exchange and communication.
Our initiative will continue after the book fair, with events and collaborations revolving around the topics of architecture and architecture books.
The daily topics in focus at the joint stand J76 in Hall 4.1 at the Frankfurt Book Fair:
WEDNESDAY, October 19
BUILDING CULTURE FOR ALL: HOW TO COMMUNICATE ARCHITECTURE TO THE PUBLIC
Architecture in general education. Architecture as lesson. Architecture as exhibit, architecture in museums. Communicating architecture through photography. The importance of books.
THURSDAY, October 20
ARCHITECTURE IN CRISIS: CITIES BETWEEN INVESTORS’ INTERESTS AND URBAN COMMONING
Participative development and planning in practice. Questions of concrete planning, building, and financing. Co-operatives and alternative forms of living.
FRIDAY, October 21
URBAN AGE: OUR LIFE IN CITIES
Urban design in face of population growth and environmental challenges. International infrastructure projects in entire cities and in neighborhoods. What makes a livable metropolis in the future?
SATURDAY, October 22
LIVING TODAY AND TOMORROW
New forms of housing (collective living, mixed uses, housing for the elderly). New housing standards. Innovative housing solutions. Affordable, social, and high-quality building and living in cities.
SUNDAY, October 23
The Book! That’s it!
We’re looking forward to meeting you at our joint stand in Frankfurt—J76 in Hall 4.1!
