Following the exhibition Dogma: Urban Villa architects Pier Vittorio Aureli and Martino Tattara (Dogma) give a lecture on 8 October at the Istituto Italiano di Cultura in Brussels. The lecture explores the historical and contemporary significance of the urban villa.
Originally a product of speculative development, the urban villa's scale, form, and organization present a potential model for modern affordable housing. The lecture highlights research conducted by the Brussels-based architecture firm Dogma on the urban villa, which is featured in an exhibition at the Flanders Architecture Institute from October 4th, 2024, to February 9th, 2025.
From 6 to 12 October, the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and AMACI (Associazione dei Musei d’Arte Contemporanei Italiani) organize the twentieth edition of the Day of Contemporary Art (Giornata del Contemporaneo) with the theme of accessibility. This theme is interpreted in the broadest sense as the removal of cultural, intellectual, sensorial and architectural barriers, to ensure full access to contemporary culture. Dogma contributes to this discussion by introducing collective living in the urban villa as a financially accessible housing.
