RING ZÉRO, CROSSROADS Building the resilient city, SEOUL BIENNALE OF ARCHITECTURE AND URBANISM 2021
For the Seoul Biennale, Franklin Azzi proposes a prospective installation on the notion of micro-architecture as a prototype for a more resilient city. A micro perspective to the challenge of the macro, with the example of the megalopolis of Beijing.
To explore and enhance the reflection, the architect conducted several interviews with Chinese artists, creators and designers, or who work in connection with China:
_Xing Danwen, artist and photographer
_Jing Jing (Naihan Li), designer
_Huang Rui, painter, calligrapher, performer
_Jérôme Sans, curator of contemporary art exhibitions
_Philip Tinari, writer, critic and curator, director of UCCA - Center for Contemporary Art
_Enrico Ancilli, architect
_Cao Dan, curator
_Sun Dawei, fashion designer
