IN MEMORIAM | YSOA GALLERY
Exhibition curation, design, and fabrication in collaboration with David Schaengold and Luka Pajovic
Exhibition Text:
Along with poets and gravediggers, architects belong to a very small group of people who might be expected to take a professional interest in how they are memorialized after death. And many architects have indeed designed their own tombs, from Mimar Sinan to Le Corbusier.
In Memoriam presents tombs that architects design for themselves, in the past and the present, as a starting point in a conversation about memory and death in Architecture. What do we as architects choose to remember and honor—and how?
