Reuse and New Aesthetics, the multiple dimensions of reuse in architecture. Lecture series organised by EAST lab, EPFL. Introduction: Professor Martin Fröhlich Moderation: Tiago P. Borges This lecture series curated by EAST Lab, prof. Anja and Martin Fröhlich, explores practices engaged on the multiple dimensions of reuse – either reuse of material, typology, content, or even reuse of knowledge. Different generations of architects present projects that, dealing with reuse, generate new situations and blur the limits of materials, elements and eventually architecture. Although it’s not a new subject, reuse has passed form an action to a concrete design methodology that triggers its own specificities, works on a different mind-set and ultimately generates new aesthetics. To reuse is to reenact. More information: https://www.epfl.ch/campus/art-culture/museum-exhibitions/archizoom/archizoom-en/lectures/superonda-talks/
