Description

This lecture explores the role of architecture and architects in modern society, questioning if architects can shape society or if architecture is solely influenced by social, political, and economic conditions. It delves into the relationship between technological advancements, historical developments, and the architect's task, pondering the feasibility of creating autonomous and critical architecture. The lecture covers various topics such as semiotics in architecture, the public-private dichotomy, and different forms of architectural meaning, providing insights into the complexities of architectural practice and its societal impact.
