Symposium Berlin plant. Stunde Null
In the organizer's words:
Symposium in the Kuppelhalle at silent green Kulturquartier, Gerichtstraße 35, 13347 Berlin
With Michael Augustin, Ralf Bock, Greg Castillo, Andrea Contursi, Simone Hain, Christa Kamleithner, Christina Lindemann, Philipp Oswalt, Hansjörg Schneider, Axel Zutz, moderated by Thomas Flierl
Parallel to the exhibition Berlin plans. Stunde Null will be accompanied by a one-day symposium at silent green Kulturquartier. It is dedicated to the multidimensionality of the collective plan and its development, which was linked to the "zero hour" and the urgent demands for a radical new beginning in society. In 1946, the collective plan was at the height of its time in terms of urban planning and at the same time ahead of its time. Taking into account the current state of research, the lectures will explore the reference models of planning, hidden biographical networks before, during and after the Nazi era as well as the different reception histories in East and West Berlin. The pioneering urban and architectural, ecological, urban landscape and participatory impulses of the collective plan will be discussed in detail. Looking back and looking ahead, this examination of a past future opens up a discourse on our society's current capacity for action and renewal and on the question: Where to?
