Nánar um fyrirlesturinn (á ensku)

Lecture Shared Atlas The interpretation, the reading of city plans involves the recognition of landscaping lines, of the contours of built-up areas, of hydrography networks or the mesh of streets, as so many recognizable shapes. These “layouts”, or the forms they represent, belong as soon as they are drawn to a system of representation halfway between iconography and ideography; between image and script.

Collections of plans can inspire a graphic, pictorial, or textual project meant to show the existence of order in space where the fundamental codes of a culture are found.

In order to evaluate such an hypothesis, numerous approaches of cities all around the world have been developed, discussed and edited on a collaborative platform, led throughout a fifteen years research seminar. The work of hundreds of participants has been achieved in such a way that its bulk is to be exhibited next year in an Art gallery, where a visual and plastic synthesis of this Shared Atlas will be shown to the public.

The lecture will propose a chronicle of this Shared Atlas and a narrative about the way the coming exhibition will be constructed and curated.
