«Spaces» Project

We are following with great interest the «Spaces» project of the independent curator and researcher Furqat Palvan-Zade.

In 2021, Furqat won our Shared Future Open Call with an idea of creating an online educational platform for architects, artists and urbanists and now, after a research phase, this idea has come to life in the «Spaces» project on the syg.ma platform.

«Spaces» includes materials related to the history and theory of architecture, cultural geography, visual studies of landscapes and infrastructure, with a curatorial focus on the post-socialist countries of Eastern Europe, the Caucasus and Central Asia.

Two pieces have already been published on the platform:
– An interview with practitioner and architecture research collective Panta Rhei Collaborative (Zurich-London),
– Reflections by curator and historian Ana Chorgolashvili on the Soviet architectural heritage in Tbilisi.

You can follow project updates here.
From Russia, syg.ma is accessible via VPN
