Open City Forum (curated with Tim Rieniets)
The IABR is an international urban research biennale founded in 2001 with the conviction that architecture is a public concern. The theme of the fourth edition of the IABR is the Open City, which signifies openness to diversity and difference, vitality and social sustainability, where people can productively relate to each other, both culturally as well as socio-economically. With the "Open City: Designing Coexistence" heading, the Rotterdam Biennale places special emphasis on how can architects and urban planners make concrete contributions for sustainability of the urban condition. The exhibition brings together elements from Rotterdam's recent 4th International Architecture Biennale and, at the same time, functions as a platform for a series of lectures, presentations and discussions.

With contributions by: Tim Rieniets with Peter Blume, Frederic Schwarz, Matthias Stark,, Fabienne Hoelzel with Elisabeth Hinz, Franziska Singer, Fujan Fahmi, Claudia Bach, İmre Balanlı,

Refuge

Critical projects and positions by architects, urbanists, artists and activists
"Refuge" can imply a safe haven, or the notion of forced displacement, producing spaces that can range from luxurious resorts to overcrowded refugee camps.
Bas Princen - 5 Cities Portfolio
Photographs from Istanbul, Beirut, Amman, Cairo and Dubai
A series of works in which the Dutch artist Bas Princen observes contemporary urban transformation in Turkey and the Middle East: how Istanbul, Beirut, Amman, Cairo and Dubai have become laboratories for a proliferation of spaces and practices of refuge - spaces of extreme poverty on the one hand and wealth on the other.
