ARCHIS RSVP EVENT 10: Beirut unbuilt | |

In cooperation with Partizan Publik and the Pearl Foundation Drawing from earlier experiences with RSVP events in the Middle East, but also from an identified local need to think through future urban development in Beirut (a city which was until recently under siege), we will instigate an urban study event on spaces of destruction and construction in the public domain in contemporary Beirut and the South of Lebanon.
