Visiting Editors #3 : The Funambulist

On Friday, December 2, 2016, at 6:00 PM, in the Brno cultural space PRAHA / Forum for Architecture, the third lecture of the series Visiting Editors will take place.
Architect and critic Léopold Lambert will present his independent architectural magazine The Funambulist and will also introduce its current issue titled "Police".
Léopold Lambert is an architect and journalist, editor-in-chief of The Funambulist, which he also independently publishes in Paris. He is the author of the book Weaponized Architecture: The Impossibility of Innocence (DPR-barcelona 2012) – which is featured in our curated library –, Topie Impitoyable: The Corporeal Politics of the Cloth, the Wall, and the Street (Punctum Books, Goleta, CA 2015), and La politique du bulldozer: La ruine palestinienne comme projet israélien (Bulldozer Politics: The Palestinian Ruin as an Israeli Architectural Project; Éditions B2, Paris 2016).
The Funambulist is a printed and digital bi-monthly supplemented by a blog and podcast (http://the-archipelago.net/). Its subtitle “Politics of Space and Bodies” expresses the ambition to bridge the world of design (architecture, urbanism, industrial and fashion design) with the world of the humanities (philosophy, anthropology, history, geography, etc.) through critical articles with long-term and newly discovered contributors.
