By presenting a particular set of works by the Office of Adrian Phiffer, this lecture aims to provoke a condition of optimism about urbanism while asking: What does urbanism still mean for the contemporary city? It will argue that from its collapse under the weight of scale, complexity, ideology, environment, and smartness, a residue remains: an urbanism without guarantees, without unanimity, without a single public, but not without use—perhaps something it has always been after all: a practice of thinking and acting as a question of relationality.

This event is being held in conjunction with The Edge of the Practice, an exhibition in the Third Floor Hallway Gallery.
