Akademie der Künste, Berlin
The Great Repair
The current social and ecological crises are forcing us to rethink our practices: away from exploitation, exhaustion and waste, towards a careful approach to our living environment. The exhibition The Great Repair at the Akademie der Künste, Berlin, presents over 40 positions from art and architecture as well as spatial practices in which repair becomes tangible as a new design paradigm. It starts with the exhibition building and makes visible processes and spaces of maintenance and care. Its scale ranges from everyday practices of care to examples of a building practice that relies on working with the existing instead of new construction.
The Great Repair is a project by ARCH+ gGmbH in cooperation with Akademie der Künste, Berlin, ETH Zurich Department of Architecture and the Faculté des Sciences Humaines at University of Luxembourg.
