Mature for Art on-line. The structure of life – modern city and its human inhabitants

September 10, 11.00

The lecture addressed the way we imagine a modern man, his lifestyle and interaction with the environment – this perspective takes into account the new organisation of the human being in private and public spaces, e.g. in relation to architecture. The lecture included topics such as W. Strzemiński and K. Kobro’s concept of “functionalised city”, the idea of Raumstadt by F. Kiesler, the project of new organisation of kitchen space proposed by B. and S. Brukalski, or discussions on new design and architecture conducted by representatives of the Czech avant-garde in “ReD” monthly.

The lecture took place online via Zoom. In order to receive a virtual invitation, the participants were asked  to send their applications to the following address: warsztaty@mck.krakow.pl. Angelika Madura answered any queries sent by e-mail.
