Message from the 2nd Symposium of Experimental Architecture in Prague

The Biennale of Experimental Architecture presents itself in Prague in its second iteration. The AAAD in Prague along with the Jaroslav Fragner Gallery are the founders and organizers of the EAB, and both the first and second editions were supported by the Embassy of the USA and the Austrian Cultural Forum. In 2013, the work of academic research studios was showcased, representing die Angewandte (AT) /studio: Greg Lynn, Hani Rashid, Zaha Hadid and Excessive and urban technique: Henry D. Alonso, Reiner Zettl/, the experimental studio at the University of Innsbruck (AT) /Patrik Schumacher/, VŠVU Bratislava (SK) /studio II, led at that time by Petr Stec/, ČVUT Prague (CZ) /atelier of Miloš Florian/ and last but not least, VŠUP in Prague (CZ) /led by Imro Vašek and Martin Gsandtner/. This year's biennale focused on professional studies and mid-generation architects to present contemporary trends and capacities in architecture. It should be noted that the curation by the Slovak duo Vaško-Gsandtner is excelling. They have managed to bring in true leaders in research from the fundamental Theodor Spyropoulos to the great speaker and thinker José Sanchez.
The Biennale of Experimental Architecture consists of a symposium (September 15, 2015) and an exhibition located at GJF (September 3 – October 18, 2015).
