пресс-релиз:
We invite you to address architecture, as a concept, as a social practice and as a community, in no more than 500 words, and with an illustration as an auxiliary tool to convey your message.
Through the solemnity and poignancy that letter-writing encourage us to confer to our own ideas, we hope to instigate passionate reflections on architecture's place in society, and start an open dialogue on its responsibility and mission.
Let's take this opportunity to make demands of architecture, to keep it on its toes, to express wishes as to what its future should look like and what its concerns should be, to declare our love for it, our hate for it, our neutrality towards it. Let's use our words to congratulate architecture on its accomplishments, or criticize it for what it has become. Let's make our own commitments to it, and hold ourselves accountable to them in a public, written form.
With "Dear Architecture," we wish to initiate a discussion on architecture that extends beyond the life of the competition, one that will grow larger and inclusive, revolving around universal questions such as "How do we shape our world through our actions?" and "How do our actions shape our world?"
Whether the actions in question are building a house, building a city, or rethinking the ways in which we inhabit and use the space around us at an even larger scale and scope, everybody should feel entitled to interact with these ideas and practices which we call "Architecture" for short, and there's no better way to create a connection than to reach out and say something.
Say something to architecture. Say it to all of us, and say it to yourselves too. Let's start a conversation.
