Paola Viganò - Space

The lecture will discuss the idea of space through three lens and considering the hypothesis of the city-territory as a renewable resource. Space function; space nature and social space will be addressed to reflect on the characters of a new biopolitical project.

One main of experience, an urban project in the west of France, will embed the reflection into a concrete situation, exploring its possible futures.
