Paulo Tavares presents Trees, Palms, Vines and Other Architectural Monuments | TWA Summit 2022

Описание: Subscribe to The World Around for presentations from the world’s most exciting architects, designers, thinkers, and more.

Brazilian architect, writer, and educator Paulo Tavares’s research has been featured in various exhibitions and publications worldwide, including Harvard Design Magazine, The Architectural Review, Oslo Architecture Triennale, Istanbul Design Biennale, and São Paulo art Biennial, and he was co-curator of the 2019 Chicago Architecture Biennial. Tavares teaches spatial and visual cultures at the University of Brasília in Brazil and leads the architectural agency autonoma.

His project, Trees, Palms, Vines and Other Architectural Monuments, traces the archeology of the ancient villages from which the Xavante people were displaced during the Brazilian military regime’s brutal campaign of forced removals to open space for plantation farms. Tavares’s work asks what is an architectural monument, who creates them, who preserves them, for whom and why.
