BAK, basis voor actuele kunst

[PLEASE NOTE: This program is now SOLD OUT!]On Wednesday 4 December 2019, BAK, basis voor actuele kunst, Utrecht proudly presents a lecture by Distinguished Professor David Harvey. The lecture focuses on the theory and practice of Urban Front, a transnational urban consultancy co-founded by Harvey and Associate Professor Miguel Robles-Durán.Urban Front, launched during the Chicago Architecture Biennial in 2019, is made up of independent associates around the world.

In his lecture, Harvey addresses the theoretical proposition of Urban Front and opens a discussion on new forms of institutional practice within the neoliberal condition.This lecture is part of a two-day program with Urban Front (David Harvey and Miguel Robles-Durán), taking place at BAK on 4 and 5 December 2019 as part of Trainings for the Not-Yet (14 September 2019–12 January 2020).
