Together with Niels, Fredi works on projects at the intersection of architecture, art, research and teaching, resulting in exhibitions that subvert traditional formats of display by abandoning the top-down dissemination of knowledge typical to University Galleries, sharing instead their more raw and unbridled enthusiasm for forging strange new connections. resulting in such exhibitions as Unbeautiful museum (curated with Geraldine Tedder), Cloud’ 68. Collection of Radical Architecture, Home. A User’s Manual among many others. Special thanks this week to Katharina Benjamin and everyone on the Kontextur team, including Angelika Hinterbrandner Patrick Martin Rosa Thoneick and Laura Bertelt. Hosted on Acast.
