Museum Without Buildings Workshop
Organized by Cneai = Paris and Center for Architecture, AIA New York
The Center for Architecture, New York City / June 22, 2019
The workshop drew inspiration from the pioneering theories and manifestos of Yona Friedman, focusing on his visionary ideas about architecture. Participants engaged in hands-on activities, including the assembly of hula hoops and the construction of an iconostasis—an open and movable structure designed to showcase artworks.
Rooted in Friedman's seminal manifesto, "Mobile Architecture" (L'Architecture Mobile), the concept of architecture devoid of traditional buildings has been a fundamental aspect of his oeuvre since its inception in 1948.
