Spaces of Negotiation
This exhibition spotlights Berlin-based ifau + Jesko Fezer, and consists of three interrelated parts: architectural projects, architectural criticism, and art and sociology. The projects are presented through plans and models, and “responding works” will cover the walls. The loosely connected collection of photographs, illustrations, plans, and texts convey the collaborative spirit of the firm’s work.
