Metaphors of performative-oriented architectures. Exhibitions, installations, interventions, 2013 – 2017
Graduate: Ayman Kassem
Supervisor: Pierluigi Salvadeo
The terms ‘Performative’ and ‘Performance’ are more and more emerging in the spatial design discourses, from exhibition to interiors, arriving at urban scale architecture. These notions are characterized by a semantic width and multiple applicative possibilities; therefore they are still not clearly defined yet. Is it possible to shape an architectural theory based on the idea of the performativity of the spatial project? Is the semantic width of these two terms an obstacle or an advantage towards a generalization of their relationship with architecture? Is it necessary to shape an architectural theory of the performative? Is it more realistic to define a general performative approach to design? Or is it more interesting to invest in the educational and psycho-pedagogical discourse?
