Talk: “Vertical Urban Factory”

Описание мероприятия

American Center in Moscow invites you to a meeting with Nina Rappaport, an architectural historian and critic. She will talk about her think tank Vertical Urban Factory that bridges both academic research and a consultancy to architects, urban planners, developers, and city agencies on urban manufacturing space and the value of industry for productive cities. It focuses on continued use of former industrial sites for industry. It began with research, seminars, and an architecture studio in 2008. Extensive investigations resulted in an exhibition in 2011, which is traveling, and a 480-page book published by Actar in 2016.

She is co-editor of Ezra Stoller, Photographer (2012) and curator of an installation of Stoller’s work in Washington, DC.
