Colloquium — The future of the decentralized
Stiftung Baukultur Thuringen initiates a series of colloquia under the header ‘Die Zukunft des Dezentralen / the future of the decentralized’.
‘How is life in a decentralized area? How do perspectives and innovations arise? Who are the actors and how do they live, live and work? The Baukultur Thuringia Foundation invites selected actors to two digital evening events as part of the exhibition Wohnschau Thuringia to report on their actions, their motivation and wealth of ideas. What is it that defines living in Thuringia, in particular, but also in other decentralized areas of Europe, what potential does it have and how can resilience, quality and innovations be developed?’ – Stiftung Baukultur Thüringen (website) / Google Translate
On Dezember 09, 2021 Robert Ilgen and I will be in an online conversation with Jessica Christoph and Stephan Jung.
Stiftung Baukultur Thüringen Studio is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting.

Croatian Adria Hotels
During the Croatian War, Dubrovnik and the surrounding area were particularly affected by heavy fighting. The Battle of Dubrovnik began in October 1991 and lasted nine months. The targets of the attacks by the Yugoslav People’s Army were mostly civilians, as there were hardly any military installations in the region. As the region around Dubrovnik lives mainly from tourism, the destruction of many hotels and tourist facilities in and around Dubrovnik was a severe economic blow.
Tourism in southern Croatia has been revived, but many of the hotels are still lying idle and waiting to be repaired or demolished. In 2008, I photographed these idle hotels, where the traces of destruction could still be seen twenty years after the start of the Croatian War.
