5th International Architecture Biennale Rotterdam

5th IABR: Making City

‘How do we make city?’ That is the central question of the 5th IABR: Making City. The inevitable process of urbanization presents a huge political, social, economic and ecological challenge. At the same time, cities offer solutions for the tasks that face us in the 21st century. The city is our future. But only if it is designed, planned and managed better than it is at present. Making City explores future urban scenarios and, in the process, puts design first. It does that through exhibitions at various venues, a conference, debates and lectures, publications, and TV and radio programmes made with the VPRO broadcasting corporation. The 5^th IABR: Making City starts on 19 April 2012 and last till 12 August 2012.
