The event is an excursion to The Beach Park in Køge Bay, which is a nature-based coastal protection project from 1980 located south of Copenhagen in Denmark.
The Beach Park in Køge Bay is composed of two human-made barrier islands protecting the hinterland against flooding. It is one of the very few examples of a realized nature-based climate adapted coastal landscape in a Danish context. The Beach Park, which is seven kilometres long, was the largest coastal embankment in northern Europe of its time. Today the Beach Park functions as an important recreational landscape, which further supports biodiversity, bird life and various habitats.
Following the guided tour to The Beach Park in Køge Bay we will visit an exhibition and attend an international panel debate on nature-based solutions and coastal landscapes at CAFx in central Copenhagen.
Organisers
The event is organized by architect and professor Gertrud Jørgensen, urban planner and associate professor Ole Fryd and landscape architect and assistant professor Anna Aslaug Lund from University of Copenhagen. The event is coordinated in close collaboration with Aarhus School of Architecture and the Technical University of Denmark.
As background information, the organisers have published this paper on the Beach Park in Køge Bay.

We believe this participatory form of communication that reaches across positions, perspectives and geographies is necessary for the ongoing process of collective formulations of architecture’s contribution to the fulfillment of the UN SDGs. We really love the expansion of the collective approach of the Manifesto Relay, bridging across industry and research, and we are certain that it will present a powerful call for action and unison.
- Mette Ramsgaard Thomsen and Martin Tamke, the UIA Scientific Committee
Copenhagen Architecture Festival (CAFx) invites you to join a conversation around the International Manifesto Relay, a provocative collection of 45 manifestos from around the world responding to the central question of the UIA2023CPH: How Can Architecture Contribute To Social And Environmental Change?
The International Manifesto Relay encourages us to rethink the role of the architect in the scope of environmental, economic and technological transformations on a global scale, to reflect on the means currently available to become drivers of change. It mobilizes our field to embrace the lived experiences of urban and rural communities, but also to speculate on what a sustainable future for the planet looks like, and to declare how architects will contribute to achieving it.
A powerful tool to put forth ideas, commitments, agendas, visions for a better architecture, from Malaysia to Mauritius, from Portugal to Japan, the manifestos function as a starting point for a topical discussion on the use of language within the architectural discipline, specifically on the meaning, power, and limitations of the key vocabulary used in architecture today.
The plenary debate will engage the researchers and practitioners that contributed to International Manifesto Relay and the panel comprising Martha Thorne, author of the International Manifesto Relay's preface, and the Chairs of the UIA2023CPH's Research Panels, authors of the publication's six introductory texts. The session is opened by Josephine Michau, founder and director of Copenhagen Architecture Festival, and moderated by Federica Sofia Zambeletti, founder and creative director of KoozArch.
Attendance requires a ticket for the UIA2023CPH World Congress.

Copenhagen Architecture Festival, in partnership with the Fundació Mies van der Rohe, is presenting a series of three film screenings in the iconic Mies Van Der Rohe Pavilion in Barcelona. These screenings will explore the aesthetics, politics and mythologies of water systems, wetlands and aquatic landscapes and will take place over the next three months.
The series will commence with a simultaneous screening held at both the Cinemateket in Copenhagen and the Mies van der Rohe Pavilion in Barcelona. The featured film for this screening is John Huston's cinematic interpretation of Herman Melville's profound oceanic myth 'Moby Dick'; a sensory cornucopia about humanity's insatiable desire for control over nature, even in the face of inevitable failure and self-destruction.
The film will be introduced by Professor Søren Frank, an expert in comparative literature, renowned author of "A Poetic History of the Oceans," Chair of the advisory board for the Hans Christian Andersen Literature Award, and a highly knowledgeable scholar in maritime literature and culture. Professor Frank's introduction will focus on the Moby Dick myth within a broader historical and philosophical framework, exploring the deep entanglements between habitation, storytelling, and the oceanic realm.
Drinks will be served before the screening.

(EN) Architecture critics from Sweden, Norway, and Denmark write critiques of fictional works of architecture. The critical reflection departures in the critics’ own dreams and imagination. The written critiques are handed over to six designers from the three countries who generate form through model and drawing based on the critique. The written critique and the graphic and spatial design representations are presented together in the exhibition.
The supposition behind Damn critics! is that good architecture requires good criticism. Which paths are to be pursued in order to revitalize critical practices within the architectural discipline? What role should architectural criticism play in the future? Under which conditions should criticism and the critics function? And could we establish a common architectural criticism for the Nordic countries? Through experiments placing criticism at the center of investigation, we wish to create an arena for the discussion of these questions. At this moment in time, where architectural criticism is widely considered as a depleted discipline, this project is at once a celebration of criticism and a curious inquiry into its future.
Like many other artistic disciplines, architecture is faced with a number of challenges regarding the shared conversation within the discipline. The critics’ authority is being called into question. Public discussion is strained by endless fora for particular agendas. Internally, the discipline is characterized by a lack of established criteria for the evaluation of architecture. The importance of context, user participation, material qualities, and energy consumption is much disputed. Whether architecture has become a billboard for the promotion of developers or whether nostalgia is taking over the image. The discipline appears to be subdivided into discursive echo chambers that rarely cross paths to reveal ideological differences.
A transformed media landscape has changed the conditions for constructing an architectural frame of reference. Popular websites present an endless stream of architecture projects devoid of critical reflection. Self-published, self-glorifying books released by architecture studios are available at professional book shops as well as in sophisticated clothing shops. There seems to be an infinite number of architecture awards from commercial actors. As the publicly available landscape of architecture continues to grow, it seems still more difficult to locate proper criticism.
In the shortcomings of the architectural criticism, a number of questions arise: How can we practice architecture without discussing its quality and value? How do we determine what concepts to refine and what buildings we would not repeat? What is the relationship between the built and the written in architecture as a cultural institution? Who defines the discipline of architecture and its presentation in history?
This is the territory Damn critics! is stepping into and what the experiment aims to qualify.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(DA) I JÄVLA KRITIKER!s seks eksperimenter har arkitekturkritikere fra Sverige, Norge og Danmark skrevet kritikker af fiktive værker. Kritikernes idéverden og forestillingsevne er udgangspunkt for den kritiske betragtning. De skriftlige kritikker overleveres til seks formgivende arkitekter fra de tre lande, som giver form til det kritiserede værk. Resultatet er seks værker – opstået imellem kritik og formgivning.
Eksperimenternes omvendte kronologi kaster en række spørgsmål af sig. Har kritikerne følt arkitekternes formgivning som et overgreb på deres skrevne forestilling? Har formgiverne følt kritikernes beskrivelser begrænsende? Eller opstår der i det usædvanlige samarbejde nye frugtbare muligheder for udvikling af arkitektur? Det er spørgsmål besøgende inviteres til at reflektere over i udstillingen.
Udstillingens tværnordiske karakter med bidragsydere parret imellem Norge, Danmark og Sverige giver yderligere dimensioner til eksperimentet. Ser arkitekturkritikken ens ud i de tre lande? Kan vi lære hinanden noget? Forstår vi overhovedet hvad hinanden siger? Med en dialog på tværs ønsker projektet at bane vejen for en fælles nordiskkritikkultur. På vandringen igennem Norden har eksperimenterne været udstillet på Rom for Kunst og Arkitektur i Oslo, Färgfabriken i Stockholm og Form/Design Center i Malmö for nu at afslutte sin rejse på galleriet til:værks i København, hvor udstillingen kan ses fra 22. juni til 08 juli 2023.

(DA) Udstillingen Perron Ceremoni byder alle og rejsende velkommen i de oprindelige ventesale på Københavns Hovedbanegård som midlertidigt genopstår i en futuristisk version fra d. 15. juni - 9. juli 2023. I salene vil utopiske motiver smelte sammen med hverdagens rum og udfolde de hybrider og ændrede æstetikker, der kan skabe nye drømme om fremtidens kollektive transport.
Den faste udstilling består af mekaniske dioramer med scener ind til fremtidens togrejser designet og skabt af arkitekt Lauge Floris samt bidrag fra andre kunstnere i form af lydværker, tegninger og installationer.
Bidragsydere og samarbejdspartnere inkluderer kunstner- og kuratorgruppen iovermorgen, billedkunstner Maiken Stæhr, organisationen Building Diversity, Kooperativet Flexwerker, fotograf Steffen Poulsen m.fl.
Den offentlige transport har flyttet folk og dannet rammer for poesi, kunst og arkitektur de sidste 175 år. Perron Ceremoni er et projekt, der ikke kun kigger på priser og tider, men skaber motiver af hvordan offentlig transport kan genfortrylles. Danmark er nemlig blevet en bilnation, og før en kulturændring opstår, er der kun et lille håb for en grøn fremtid. Perron Ceremoni skaber drømmebilleder af, hvordan dén kulturændring kan se ud.
Transportformen er under pres og har gennem de seneste årtier tabt status og blevet en skygge af, hvad den kan være. Det sker, mens flere mennesker anskaffer sig biler end tidligere, men også imens stadigt flere skifter flyet ud med toget. Den offentlige transport og omdømme må gentænkes og genromantiseres. Dette så den peger ind i fremtiden, og ikke bliver en nostalgisk parentes. Perron Ceremoni vil både stille spørgsmål og indikere svar, men først og fremmest invitere til samtale.
‘Perron Ceremoni’ af Drømmekontoret er ikke en udstilling i traditionel forstand, da den ikke er et slutprodukt, men en invitation til at samle forskelligartede stemmer og blik på vores fælles offentlige transport.
Udstillingen er en beskrivelse af de hybrider, og nye æstetikker, som kan være med til at gøre den offentlige transport til en del af vores fælles fremtidsbillede.
Drømmekontoret er en fremtidsundersøgelse og en form for tegnestue indrullet i dimensionen mellem virkelighed og utopiske drømmeverdener. Drømmekontoret arbejder uafhængigt og gerne i samarbejde med andre indenfor skriverier, arkitektur og kunst.
Drømmekontoret er skabt af Lauge Floris Larsen, som er uddannet arkitekt MAA på det kongelige akademi i København. Drømmekontoret samarbejder med Anna Norup Lindblad, som har baggrund i etnologi og journalistik.

(DA) Støv finder vej overalt og lægger sig på hver en overflade. Det overføres til luften via skorstene og trænger ind i hver en regndråbe. Det bekæmpes og ryddes væk som i en uendelig livsopgave. I denne dokumentarfilm undersøger Hartmut Bitomsky støvets mange former, og forfølger støvets vej til de steder, hvor den møder det mennesker, der kæmper mod det: rengøringsmænd og -kvinder, støvsugerproducenter, husmødre og museumsmedarbejdere. Vi følger botanikere, kunsterne, biologer, filosofier, meteorologer og astronomer, som alle arbejder med forskellige miljø- og sundhedsmæssige konsekvenser af støv. Ved nøje at undersøge et emne, der omgiver os i vores daglige liv, men som vi sjældent er seriøst opmærksomme på, giver Dust os en ny forståelse af de mange måder, hvorpå støv påvirker kroppen, miljøet og kloden.
Filmen introduceres af den finske medieteoretiker og kurator Jussi Parikka, der vil fremlægge hans forskning i relationen mellem støv, medier og arkitektur. Arrangementet er en del af programmet Trivial Matters, der undersøger arkitektoniske materialers æstetik, politik og metafysik. Læs mere om programmet på Cafx.dk.

Kom med på skattejagt for hele familien i Jernbanebyen, hvor de gamle jernbanespor fører jer ud i hemmelige afkroge og ind i fortællinger om kulturhistorien, dem der var, er og kommer i fremtidens ny bydel.
Børn og voksne inviteres til at se på byen med nye øjne, når I skal sanse jer gennem Jernbanebyen og lytte efter bydelens stemmer. I skal på jagt efter seglgræshoppen og dens venner, efter glemte togskinner og gemte grønne oaser. For jernbanebyen er et særligt sted. Her ligger sporene af Danmarks første jernbanestrækning, DSB haller fra industrialiseringens indtog står næsten uberørte, Den Gule By charmerer som sin egen lille landsby, murstensfacaderne er groet til ligesom hvor krat og buske vokser vildt. Bistader og insekter er flyttet ind, sammen med flagermus og sjælne planterarter spredt igennem tiden af godsvognene. Og inde bag de 100 år gamle mursten spirer nyt liv. I træladerne og på værkstederne er nye kreative kræfter kommet til og nogle af dem skal du møde på din vej.
Så tag med på opdagelse i Jenbanebyens historiske lag, fra dengang der var havbund til udviklingen af en ny bydel. For der er store forandringer på vej, når der i fremtiden skal bo over 8000 mennesker i Jernbanebyen.

To address questions of urban resilience, Schmidt Hammer Lassen Architects brings together insightful thought leaders of different scales to take part in a 2-part series of discussions to investigate how our food and waste systems influence our daily experiences and affect our collective future. The event is free with registration.
At this seminar we will examine the dramatic changes in the physical and social fabric of Copenhagen over the last 30-40 years, and what we can learn from them. We will also consider whether values, problems, and methods have changed since the development of Ørestad and Nordhavn, as the new city plan of Jernbanebyen is being cast as a new showcase of ‘sustainable urbanism’ both socially and environmentally.
To shed light on these issues, we have invited two prominent figures in Copenhagen’s urban (re)development, Jens Kramer and Dan Stubbergaard, who will share their experiences and address the question of how to promote an eco-political framework within the field of urban planning. The event is free with registration.
Participate in Vesterbro Lokaludvalg's edition of Copenhagen Picnic with longtable dinner and activities for all ages.

The talk is the fourth chapter of a “Next Gen” concept, developed by CAFx and VELUX, where architects of younger offices each select a dogma within mainstream architecture practice and thinking that they want to challenge. This selection then motivates them to tell about why and how they are challenging the so-called dogma and why it is necessary to renew the architecture profession. Over the year, we will invite ten younger Danish and international architectural studios challenging the status quo in architecture practice and pushing the boundaries towards a more regenerative methodology.
Les Marneurs is an architecture, landscape and urban planning office co-founded in 2019 by Antonin Amiot, Geoffrey Clamour and Julien Romane. Combining a landscape designer and two architects, the office is built on experiences and backgrounds from La Rochelle, Rotterdam, Geneva and Brussels.
Based in Paris and Brussels, the young agency Les Marneurs carries out architectural projects on various scales. The name 'Les Marneurs' first embodies their meeting at the School of Architecture of the City & Territories of Paris-Est (Marne-la-Vallée). This reference also reflects their desire to anchor the project in the field, in its relationship to the ground.
By associating a landscape architect and two architects, the agency relies on very varied backgrounds and experiences. Their approach integrates the issues related to climate change at all stages of the design: from the consideration of resources (soil, water, energy, living, construction methods) and risks (urban heat islands, drought, flooding, submersion navy, etc.), from the construction of a common story to the modes of management and implementation of projects.
The event is kindly supported by L'Institut Français.

Do you want to experience wild nature in the city? Not only experience it, but also taste it? Then join the urban foraging trip at CAFX at Sydhavnstippen on June 11th from 12-14. The foraging trip will be facilitated by Maria Natascha Koustrup Larsen, also known as 'Den hurtige sanker'.
On this trip you will get to know some of the tasty herbs, flowers and berries nature has to offer. In June there’s an abundance of delicious and beautiful plants, and on this day, you’ll get to know the do’s and don’ts, what to look for, what plants are edible and how you use it. We will hunt for plants such as horseradish, Mirabelle, yarrow and much more.
As a city dweller nature can feel like something you have to go far away to experience, but you don’t have to go out of the city to experience local ecologies and find flavorful resources. Learning how to utilize the nature we live in and next to in a sustainable way, only makes us closer to it – and by doing so, taking better care of it. Get inspired to go ‘shopping’ for food in nature in the future and get to know how you can utilize wild food in your own kitchen. We’ll end the trip with a small tasting of the plants that we find.
Maria has been facilitating foraging workshops since 2018 and has among other events hosted ‘Wild Drinks’ workshops at Roskilde Festival. Her aim is to heighten our connection with nature through experiences by making foraging accessible to all, no matter your background or interest in nature with a careful approach. As a native Copenhagener it is an important part of her practice to show others how to take care of and use the nature in and around Copenhagen.
Important:
We will meet at Sydhavns Genbrugscenter, Bådhavnsgade 50, 2450 Kbh SV
Wear practical clothing and shoes
Bring a cup and water
Bring something to forage in a preferably a scissor or knife

In this discussion we challenge two basic precepts of urban planning that underpin the dichotomy between city and countryside - one as a site of consumption, the other as a site for industrialized food production - yet we are concealed from the waste in both places.
To address questions of urban resilience, we bring together insightful thought leaders of different scales to take part in a 2-part series of discussions to investigate how our food and waste systems influence our daily experiences and affect our collective future.
This event marks the launch of a series of discussions hosted by CAFx, Schmidt Hammer Lassen Architects and Roskilde Festival, in partnership with BloxHub, where we share insights from our recent publication to offer value propositions of future potential aimed towards cultural and political change in urban food systems.
SHL explores the city as a resource organism, the history of cities and their relationship with food and resources. How might we better understand the extractive relationship between cities and countryside, and how could we redress it to create self-sufficiency and regeneration?
SHL examines the circular economy from a food and nutrient perspective. A study published by the Ellen MacArthur Foundation revealed that cities only return 2% of the nutrients they extract from agriculture to the countryside. How might we reverse these trends by redefining the potentials and opportunities in ‘waste’?

We will also consider whether values, problems, and methods have changed since the development of Ørestad and Nordhavn, as the new city plan of Jernbanebyen is being cast as a new showcase of ‘sustainable urbanism’ both socially and environmentally.
To shed light on these issues, we have invited two prominent figures in Copenhagen’s urban (re)development, Jens Kramer and Dan Stubbergaard, who will share their experiences and address the question of how to promote an eco-political framework within the field of urban planning. The event is free with registration.
Participate in Vesterbro Lokaludvalg's edition of Copenhagen Picnic with longtable dinner and activities for all ages.

Everything that develops and changes in nature is folded: mountains, blossoms, the brain. Life is an unending series of folding and unfolding. It’s the most economical and efficient process in the natural world.
And it is not only design. Folding determines also function. Today researchers in robotics, medicine, biology, nanotechnologies, are embracing this “origami philosophy”. They are looking at how materials and molecules wrinkle, drape, flex and crease, refining origami techniques, and trying better to understand and duplicate nature’s universal folding principles.
The Origami Code explores this silent deciphering and mastering of a completely new dimension of reality. The film explores how the ancient art of folding paper has entered the cutting-edge domains of research and now could lead the way to the ultimate stage in bionics.

For our able-bodied peers it is often difficult to fully comprehend the limitations inaccessibility places on our use of space, while we may live in the same urban environments, the livable space that is available to all is a small fraction of what it should be. For us with disabilities within the art field, this environment of inaccessibility cuts us off from vital resources and opportunities necessary for success in our chosen careers. UKK Art Workers with Disabilities invites you to preview work from our growing project to map our access to the art sector, with an artist talk by Victor Vejle on the subject.

Taking their site specific compost installation “Compost Canteen”, realised for CAFx in Jernbanebyen, with Banegaarden and the local Steiner School as a point of departure, the collective TUSCA7 will introduce a radical rethinking of the way we are usually treating not only resources and waste, but also gardening and food production/consumption. The TU-Berlin affiliated group advocates for a more holistic design thinking and a more circular economy.
The talk is part III of a “Next Gen” concept, developed by CAFx and VELUX, where architects of younger offices each select a dogma within mainstream architecture practice and thinking that they want to challenge. This selection then motivates them to tell about why and how they are challenging the so-called dogma and why it is necessary to renew the architecture profession. Over the year, we will invite ten younger Danish and international architectural studios challenging the status quo in architecture practice and pushing the boundaries towards a more regenerative methodology.

x4a_lab and ST:ART present WORMS OF MASS CONSUMPTION. An immersive installation at Sydhavn Theatre, that explores the habitat of mealworms and their ability to digest styrofoam, raising questions about our relationship with consumption, nourishment, and consumerism.
The human-scale worm habitat of WMC captures the motion of the worm, forcing us to travel in the space left behind as we follow the twists and turns of digested tunnels, adapting both physically and symbolically. The installation presents the residual landscape of consumerism, a sea of plastic consumables, and highlights the negative space created by the consumption of our own plastic waste.
Our future depends upon the ability of our species to adapt to a rapidly changing and increasingly extreme environment. The art of living in an ecosystem out of balance demands a collaboration with nature itself, with other species, with new technologies. WMC is an exploration on this theme, how can the mealworms shape us and the spaces we inhabit?
x4a_lab invites you to visit their open lab and exhibition WORMS OF MASS CONSUMPTION to gain insight into their work and experience a reimagining of our relationship with the built environment.
The project is formed in collaboration between x4a_lab, a design laboratory, founded by Architects, Pavels Liepins-Hedström, Elliott Andrew and Magnus Nilsson and ST:ART, a volunteer driven cross-disciplinary platform for artistic development under Sydhavn Theatre. Supported by Sharing Copenhagen m.m.

Før Jacques-Yves Cousteau var der Jean Painlevé, en banebrydende fransk naturfilmskaber og ekspert i undervandsfauna med et surrealistisk blik. Med et godt øje for det mystiske og uventede fangede Painlevé og hans assistent Geneviève Hamon en drømmeagtig blæksprutte, metamorfe krebsdyr, erotiske søheste, mytiske vampyrflagermus og umættelige rovdyrinsekter. Det blev til mere end to hundrede filmstudier af de langt-mere-end-menneskelige dyr og deres forundrende livsverdener. Det bliver en eftermiddag om den kunstneriske omfavnelse af naturens fremmedartethed og dens kuriøse ufattelighed.

Kom med på en gående samtale, hvor vi bliver klogere på visionen om at skabe en ny type bynatur med afsæt Jernbanebyens særlige kultur- og banenatur - vi stiller spørgsmålet om hvordan kan vi integrere stedets selvgroede natur, historie og kultur med fremtidens behov for en bynatur der også skal rumme tekniske løsninger på de hyppigere vandmængder, manglende insekter mm. og samtidig skabe grønne åndehuller med fokus på den sociale merværdi.
Bynatur er en fælles betegnelse, der dækker over alle levende væsner og vækster i byen. Bynaturen findes over alt i byen - i naturområder, søer og vandløb, havne, parker, kirkegårde, på vores tage og i vores by- og gaderum.
Bynaturen bliver ofte fremhævet som løftestang og løsning på mange af de foruroligende billeder FN’s klimapanel tegner i disse år. Men bynatur er andet og mere end tekniske løsninger på de hyppigere vandmængder, manglende insekter og dalende biodiversitet. Bynaturen bidrager også til social inklusion, møder på tværs og generel livskvalitet. Vores oplevelse af lykke og velvære stiger for hver meter kortere der er til både park og kyst.
Bynaturen er også kunst, stressreducerende og skal opfordre til en sund og aktiv livsstil. Med andre ord, er der er mange forventninger til bynaturen også den der skal opstå i fremtidens Jernbaneby.
Gæster:
Morten Leicht Jeppsen, Urban Horticulturalister og indehaver af Metropolitan Metaculture. Leicht er landskabsarkitekten for Jernbanebyens helhedsplan og vil fortælle om det store forarbejde og kortlægningen af den eksisterende natur, samt hvordan dette skal udvikles og tilpasses side om side med at en ny bydel skyder op.
Camilla Berner arbejder inden for det tværfaglige kunst- og naturvidenskabelige felt og væver sin viden om og interesse for planter, landskaber og natur ind i sin kunstneriske praksis. Berner undersøger det komplekse forhold mellem natur og kultur og udfordrer vores opfattelse af de to: Hvor går grænsen, hvis der er en? Er det muligt, og er det klogt at se på natur og kultur som to adskilte kategorier, når de er spundet ind og forbundne med hinanden?
Mødested: Otto Busses Vej 90, for enden af tunnelen inde i Jernbanebyen på hjørnet af Den Gule By og portnerboligen.

Permaculture is a holistic design philosophy that seeks to create regenerative human habitats by integrating natural systems and human cultivation. By adopting permaculture principles, designers, and architects can create complex and evolving systems that prioritise ecological health, diversity, and resilience.
In the third chapter of the seminar series, we will delve into the ways in which permaculture principles can inspire innovative approaches to architecture. Our discussion will cover topics such as upcycling resources, circular systems, self-regulation, and transformation, as well as the principle of the smallest possible intervention.
For this we have assembled a diverse panel of experts, including the acclaimed Brussels-based research and architecture collective, Rotor, renowned architect Søren Pihlmann, and visual artist and permaculture designer, Skye Jin. Through this exploration, we hope to showcase the potential of permaculture to shape the future of architectural design.
We will finish the day off with drinks sur l ́herbe.

Æren af at være hele verdens arkitekturhovedstad tilfalder i år København. Der findes næppe en bedre lejlighed til at opføre et af komponisten, arkitekten, matematikeren, musikteoretikeren og computermusikpioneren Iannis Xenakis' allermest arkitektoniske værker: Det epokegørende og sjældent opførte slagtøjsværk Persephassa (1969), der hermed uropføres i København. Og der findes næppe et bedre sted at gøre det ind i foyeren til Henning Larsens ikoniske, neo-futuristiske Operahus.
Her vil den Taiwanesiske slagtøjsvirtuos Ying-Hsueh Chen, der står bag koncertprojektet Ancestral Modernism, og perkussionister fra Det Kongelige Teater opfører Xenakis' værk – et værk, der, ved at bygge bro mellem musikken og arkitekturen, bliver til et pludseligt aktuelt gesamtkunstwerk.

The architecture of the 1990s and 2000s was arguably characterised by a severe subordination with architects relenting to the needs of the client, turning architecture into a nonpartisan servant of market forces. Yet, as architecture seems to be in the process of developing a clearer understanding of its normative foundation, one can discern a distinct schism from this instrumentalist paradigm among the new generations of architects.
The second chapter of the seminar series will focus on this re-politicisation of architecture with a particular focus on identifying the responsibilities of architects and exploring pathways towards a more climate-conscious architectural paradigm. We will examine how practitioners in the field can take significant measures to facilitate a renewed equilibrium and solidarity between humans and more-than-human species, while also considering how a renewed engagement with ethical reasoning might reshape the relationship between architecture and climate activism.

'The Gleaners and I' is a captivating documentary that takes us on a profound exploration of gleaning, ranging from those who collect leftover crops in fields after harvest to individuals who meticulously search through the dumpsters of Paris.
Through this film, we delve into the fascinating phenomenon of gleaning, which embraces a rich tapestry of interests, diverse life forms, and cultural situations. This intimate and adventurous documentary sheds light on the experiences of both those who engage in gleaning out of necessity and a Michelin chef who derives aesthetic pleasure from this practice.
The screening of the film will be preceded by an introduction from the esteemed architect and researcher, Sandra Bartoli.

Præsentationerne afholdes hvert 15. minut fra klokken 14.30 frem til 15.30.
Om indsatsen 4til1 planet
4til1 planet har med konkurrencen “Next Generation Architecture” udpeget 3 vinderforslag, som i pavillonform fremviser klimavenligt boligbyggeri med ressourceforbrug i respekt for planetens planetære grænser.
Udstillingsområdet og de tre pavilloner baserer sig på innovative byggeløsninger og fremviser koncepter og tilgange til at reducerer klimaaftrykket fra nybyggede boliger med 75%. En grøn park af bl.a. upcyclede materialer binder området sammen, og danner ramme om en udstilling om klimavenlige byggematerialer og metoder gennem tiden samt baggrundsinfo om indsatsen ”Boligbyggeri fra 4 til 1 planet”.
Målet med initiativet Boligbyggeri fra 4 til 1 planet er at skabe bæredygtige nye boliger med respekt for de ressourcer, vi har til rådighed på vores planet. Initiativet er sat i værk af Realdania og VILLUM FONDEN, som i alle dele af processen vil aktivere bygherrer, arkitekter, ingeniører, entreprenører, forskere og ideudviklere med det absolutte fælles mål at reducere byggeriets CO2-aftryk.
Med udgangspunkt i et biocenter, der skal øge sundheden i slumkvarteret Kinawataka i Uganda, har Arkitekter uden Grænser designet en pavillon med et usædvanligt omdrejningspunkt – nemlig toilettet.
Arkitekter Uden Grænser er en humanitær organisation, der arbejder for at skabe udvikling med arkitektur og planlægning som redskaber. Formålet er at støtte udsatte og fattige befolkningsgrupper ved at skabe arkitektfaglige udviklingsprojekter, samt arbejde med at forbedre jordrettigheder i slumkvarterer og uformelle bosættelser. Organisationen arbejder for at give alle mennesker adgang til anstændige boligforhold og levevilkår.

BEMÆRK: ARRANGEMENTET ER UDSKUDT - DATO PÅ VEJ
Oplev Rural Agency, en NGO og tegnestue, der arbejder med det rurale rum og fremtidens livsformer på landet.
Rural Agency er baseret på et landsted på midtsjælland, der også fungerer som biodynamisk landbrug og skole/bosted for unge med særlige behov.
Rural Agency blev startet I 2019 af Anna Sofie Hvid og har siden arbejdet dedikeret med det rurale rum i fysisk planlægning, arkitektur og vidensudvikling.
Både som fysisk landskab og mentalt terræn har “landet” præget udviklingen i Europa på godt og ondt. I dag står vi i midlertid overfor et ruralt paradigmeskifte, for fremtidens landdistrikter skal rumme radikalt anderledes livs- og produktionsformer, hvis vi skal løse samfundets polykriser.
Fra biodiversitetskrise til klimaudfordringer og trivselskrise rummer det rurale rum mange af de efterspurgte løsninger. Men det kræver at vores tilgang til den fysiske planlægning og rumlige opfattelse af landet ændres grundlæggende. Og det kræver at arkitekter og planlæggere vender blikket væk fra byen og det urbane bias, der har præget årtiers fejlslåede tilgang til landdistrikterne.
Som NGO arbejder Rural Agency med afsæt i arkitekturen for en mere divers og symbiotisk fremtid på landet på tværs af humane og non-humane entiteter. I forbindelse med Copenhagen Architecture Festival 2023 inviterer tegnestuen til gårdvandring og diskussionsrunde omkring fremtidens livsformer på landet. Prisen inkluderer transport og traktement fra gårdens produktion.
Arrangeres i samarbejde med ARENA, Architectural Research Network

Based in Brussels, Rotor is a cooperative design practice that investigates the organisation of the material environment. They develop critical positions through research and design and have among others done the exhibition and book project “Behind the Green Door Architecture and the Desire for Sustainability”. Besides projects in architecture and interior design, Rotor also produces exhibitions, books, economic models and policy proposals and runs Rotor Deconstruction, a cooperative that organises the reuse of construction materials, dismantling, processing and trading salvaged building components.
Rotor will be represented by architect Maarten Gielen, co-founder and partner of Rotor in 2006, where he currently works as a designer, researcher and manager. In the dogma talk Maarten Gielen will address the following question: What if it was as easy for architects to reuse materials as getting new materials?
Rotor’s participation is kindly supported by Hub Brussels.

Architecture has unwittingly provided stable habitats for solitary bees over thousands of years with the use of thatched roofs, mud walls and mortar, but how can architecture provide habitat in the absence of these materials? With a thorough understanding of the biology of solitary bees, Habeetats provides an architectural solution that fosters biodiversity in the most urban and industrial of landscapes: a landfill. On this tour of the largest urban landfill in Greater Copenhagen you will learn what solitary bees are, the architecture of their nests and how details are important for implementing effective and long term biodiversity solutions.
The tour begins and finishes at CAFx Halmtorvet 27 from where you will be driven in bus to the site and come back to CAFx Halmtorvet 27.

Cisternerne, Art Week, Copenhagen Architecture Festival and Art Hub Copenhagen invite you to a special screening of the film work Liquid Light by visual artists Javier Tapia (Chile/Denmark) and Camilo Ontiveros (Mexico/USA). Javier Tapia is currently part of Art Hub Copenhagen’s residency program.
For 30 minutes Liquid Light takes the audience on a journey along the Colorado River to the US-Mexico border wall. Through images and music, the story is told in a poetic imagery that crumbles along the way creating an insight into the human and climatic consequences that the geopolitics between the USA and South America entails.
The screening takes place in Cisternerne – the special athmosphere, the architecture and climate here creates a unique setting for the viewing and echos the film’s narrative and the message about the importance of water and, not least, access to water.
For the screening including an artist talk in Danish on 9 June at 19.00, you can buy your ticket here

Water and its beauty plays the main part in the film work; water is a necessary source of life, but this necessity also constitutes a fragility. The cinematic journey along the river shows how the water and the river are exploited politically and commercially with major consequences for nature and the people who inhabit it.
Join us on this both wondrous and unsettling journey along the Colorado River and experience the architecture and history of Cisternerne brought to life during the screening of Liquid Light.
MORE ON LIQUID LIGHT
The Liquid Light project is originally an installation consisting of both film and sculptures.
The main element in the project is the film work produced in 2019/2020 on a longer research trip to the USA and Mexico. All elements of the installation are intended as direct references to water as a theme, water consumption, climate crisis and geopolitical aspects. Liquid Light was presented for the first time in 2021/22 at the Vincent Price Art Museum and is currently on display at the 2022/23 Mexicali Biennial, Cheech Museum in Riverside, California.
Liquid Light is supported by among others Statens Kunstfond Ford Foundation og Grosserer L.F. Foghts Fond.
ABOUT JAVIER TAPIA
Javier Tapia (b. Chile, 1976) lives and works in Copenhagen. Tapia’s work can be described as a chain of events in continuous expansion. Some aspects of his work comments on problems associated to geopolitics and the function of art in the local and global culture, where identity plays a central role. The use of video, photography, drawing and collage are complementary to each other in the construction of the works. The results are different installation outlooks, where social interaction and materiality are an open destination.

The film and photographs of the exhibition “From Harvest to House” in TN16 document a cross-disciplinary workshop and seminar of the same name that took place in November 2022.
The project is a collaboration between Djernes & Bell architects, Local Works Studio, Agronomist Janne Dinesen (Høst Skole) and artist Nicholas Brooks, this workshop was the first step into a larger investigation of the relation between agriculture and the built environment. The project was underpinned by a desire for a much closer cross-disciplinary connection between those who work with the land, and those who build on the land and with materials from the land with hopes for a regenerative future. During the workshop farmers, materials specialists, geographers, architects and thatchers partook in an immersive weekend seeking to increase the connection between architecture and agriculture.
Based on this experience and examination, the agronomist Janne Dinesen and architect Justine Bell will give an informal talk about the project and the process with its learnings. The talk will be moderated by the researcher, author and activist Emmy Perez Fjalland. Additionally, a film by artist Nicholas Brooks will be screened as well as photographs by Hampus Berndtson.
The project Harvest to House was generously supported by Statens Kunstfond and hosted by Forening Orbi Vrå (Dinesen x KADK)

The event is part of CAFx’ seminar series, 'The Ecological Turn', examining the gradual paradigm shift from a more pragmatic, market-driven architecture towards a more holistic and ‘green’ ecological impulse.
In the first chapter, we will investigate the organic, raw, and metabolic impulse in the contemporary analysis of buildings and cities: the smooth passage of energy, the seamless circulation of waste, and the dynamic operations of microbial colonies. For if modern architecture was recognisable by its austere skin and slender bones, it might indeed be said that the eco- logical turn is distinguishable by its visceral, anatomical language, evoking cell membranes, bowels, and metabolic systems.
To set the stage for this discussion, the architect Sandra Bartoli and the artist Silvan Linden will unfold the modern history of self-sufficient urban gardening, ecological agriculture, and models of waste recycling through a presentation of their collaborative research project “Licht Luft Scheisse”. Subsequently, TUSCA7 will challenge traditional waste management practices through the presentation of local and decentralised composting systems like the one they have built for Banegaarden.
Finally, there will be a joint conversation, offering an opportunity for the audience to engage in the discussion.

Byen vågner på Søren Kirkegaards Plads i København til en samtale om nye materialer, livs- og boformer.
Hvordan kan vi tænke fremtidens boligbyggeri, så vi ikke bruger flere ressourcer, end kloden kan bære? Og hvordan kan fremtidige krav til boformer og materialer samtidig åbne for nye boligkvaliteter?
Tre pavilloner på Søren Kierkegaards Plads illustrerer, hvordan klimaaftrykket fra nybyggede boliger kan reduceres med 75 procent. Vi bliver klogere på hvordan, når vi besøger pavillonerne, der er vindere af konkurrencen “Next Generation Architecture” under indsatsen Boligbyggeri fra 4 til 1 planet.
Glæd dig til at opleve fremtidens arkitektur i pavillon-udstillingen og møde de tre vinderteams til en samtale om nye visioner for klimavenligt boligbyggeri, boformer og et ressourceforbrug med respekt for planeten.

Join us for the opening night of the compost installation made by the Berlin-based collective Tusca7. Drink a glass of Georgian wine while learn about compost, reuse and architecture.
Regardless of whether one considers the digestion happening in the biogas plants, in our stomachs, or everywhere in nature, we depend on invisible microbes capable of converting and releasing the energy that we need to survive. It is about time that we recognize these diligent little creatures and show them our gratitude. That is why we are opening a restaurant for our microscopic co-citizens at Banegaarden in Jernbanebyen; a place where human Copenhageners already are enjoying the work of bacteria and fungi in the form of well-nourished, organic vegetables and fermented foods.
Throughout June, we will provide facilities so that visitors can participate in preparing a microbial feast from their own leftovers. The recipe and additional ingredients are supplied so come around and show your microbes that you care for them by cooking up the perfect compost.

Kunstnerisk pre-talk om porøsitet og symbiose mellem menneske, svampehybrid og rum. Oplev derefter teaterhybriden DET PORØSE MENNESKE.
Er bevidsthedsforandring en reel mulighed for oprør mod en verden, der er løbet løbsk i forbrug, konkurrence og oplevelsesindustri?
Teaterhybriden “Det Porøse Menneske” er en opdagelsesrejse ind i hovedpersonen, Alex, bevidsthed. Alex har den særhed, at hun oplever sig selv som halvt menneske, halvt træ. Hun er biolog og iværksætter en laboratorieundersøgelse af sig selv og sin vegetabilske natur.
Gennem lyd og animation synker vi ind i de paralleluniverser hovedpersonen Alex indeholder. Et lydbad skaber er et kontemplativt rum, hvor publikum inviteres til udånding og ro.
Animationerne er en iboende kraft i Alex, en kosmisk civilisationskritik der kommer ud som en spirituel vrede.

Through Anthony's extensive archival research, a complex historical dynamic is revealed that not only summarises rat control, eugenics and urban development plans, but also draws connections to current racial inequalities and tensions. The film will be introduced by Paul Dobraszczyk, lecturer at The Bartlett School of Architecture and author of the recently published 'Animal Architecture: Beasts, Buildings and Us'.
The event is the third chapter of the 'Anima Urbis' programme, which explores the relationship between animals and humans in the city and perception of the so-called 'trash animals': pigeon, fox, rat and wild dog.

This unique seminar examines architectural and design approaches where interior space acts as an outstanding experience of the phenomenon of Nature. It combines contemporary design practice with scientific perspectives. In line with the implementation of UN's 17 SDG's, the purpose of the course is two fold: to illuminate and enrich the understanding of architectural biophilic design and to stimulate an interdisciplinary dialogue/debate and interest in Nature-inclusive architectural design.
Besides the strong will to improve collaboration between the actors the main goal is not only to disseminate knowledge but to influence architects and designers to phase in nature-connected design and enhance the health and wellbeing of communities through interaction with Nature (Nature Based Solutions).
The program of the seminar is addressed to architects, designers, and BA and MA students who share an interest in the theme of the course as a starting point for critical reflection. The proposed seminar will help attendees to consciously and critically engage with an emergent and relevant theme. It is a timely moment not only due to the relevancy of the topic, its urgent need and its appealing character, but because 2023 Copenhagen will have a leading role in the international architecture and building forum.
Practical Information:
The course will be held at The Royal Danish Academy Architecture Design Conservation, in Holmen on June 8th. It will start at 10.00 and will end by 19.30 at Louisiana Museum of Modern Art. The course fee is 350DKK. Coffee and a group dinner will be provided as the seminar programme describes. Participants must cover their own transport and entrance ticket to Louisiana Museum. The course is structured as a dynamic set of activities. It includes a shared learning group workshop - tailored to the interests of the participants - discussions, a lecture and an architectural visit that also includes an immersion in nature.
For one day, the participants will be briefly introduced to relevant literature on the theme of the course and the principles of biophilic design, including different approaches to the understanding of 'nature' and presentation of exemplary nature-connected architectural cases. The participants will articulate their understanding of the texts selected, a lecture and a building visited and will reflect on the different questions that may arise.

(DA) På et rumskib ved navn Valley Forge arbejder fire mænd på at bevare en række store geodomer med plante- og dyreliv, som ikke længere har levedygtige betingelser på Jorden. Men kun botanikeren Lowell er virkelig dedikeret til projektet, og da han får besked om dets forestående nedlukning, myrder han de øvrige besætningsmedlemmer i en egenhændig kamp for at holde naturen i live.
Selvom 'Verden sidste Have' netop er fyldte 51 år, synes den næsten mere relevant end nogen sinde før; en film til en tid, der med etableringen af globale frøbanker allerede forestiller sig et liv efter et fremtidigt økosystemkollaps.
Verden sidste Have er en film for dig, der savner en sci-fi, hvor helten ikke er en frygtløs kriger, men en stille biofil gartner, der kultiverer symbiotiske relationer med både dronerobotter og planteliv.

How might designers and architects use AI to challenge past practices and work towards planet-positive living? Generative AI tools allow anyone to visualise their ideal homes, products, and cities. By experimenting with these technologies as creative collaborators in the design process, we can collectively and contextually use them to build more sustainable and circular daily lives. To dig deeper into AI's design potential, SPACE10 will host a conversation that challenges past design practices and parameters. We will explore how designers and architects can integrate these tools into their own work, and share recent experiments with oio and Panter&Tourron.

Hvad får man ud af den kontemporære arkitekturrepræsentation, når Jesper Rasmussen skildrer bygninger og steder renset for menneskets adfærd og funktioner, så den fremstår unheimlich og utopisk. Kan den bidrage til den aktuelle arkitekturdebat, hvor man diskuterer hvordan arkitekturen skal se ud, og hvordan den eventuelt er i færd med at umenneskeliggøre det offentlige rum?
Med udgangspunkt i Jesper Rasmussens aktuelle udstilling Ny Topografi hos Galerie MøllerWitt diskuteres spørgsmålet, hvorvidt arkitektoner er en ideel forestilling om en ny arkitektur eller om de blot er kunstneriske fantasier hinsides det realistiske.
Begrebet arkitektoner blev skabt af den russiske billedkunstner Kazimir Malevitj, da han i 1920'erne fremstillede en række formalistiske gipsfigurer, der angiveligt skulle pege på en ny tids arkitektur. Arkitektonerne er karakteriseret ved, at man ikke entydigt kan kategorisere dem som skulpturer i deres egen ret eller som modeller af noget andet, som for eksempel bygninger. De befinder sig i gråzonen mellem skulptur og arkitektur, mellem æstetik og funktion.

In this series of short films, we take a journey from Jean Painlevé's famous study of Parisian urban pigeons to Anne Linke's recent film essay on anonymous pigeon feeding in Hamburg. We delve into knowledge and fantasies that surround urban pigeons and architecture built to counteract their resting in urban space: grids, wires and spikes. It will be a celebration of cross-species solidarity, a paean to the feathered architects among us and a short film tryptic that challenges our view of city's symbioses, life forms and life worlds.
'Pigeon' is the first chapter in the series of lecture & film events 'Anima Urbis', exploring the interplay between architecture, urbanisation, and so-called 'trash animals'. The program features a thoughtfully curated collection of short films and an introductory lecture by Anne Linke, the director of 'Pigeons and Architecture'.

The two architecture and art collectives Raumlabor (Berlin) and Collectif ETC (Marseille) work at the intersection of architecture, urban development, art and design. Both collectives are interested in the conceptual design and concrete realisation of architectural interventions in public space. Based on citizen involvement and local participation, the collectives ask what constitutes the character of a given place? What creates quality - for the individual and for society? How do you create spaces for dialogue and togetherness in the local community, where people feel safe and part of the community, while at the same time taking climate and resources into account
In 2022, Raumlabor and Collectif ETC were invited to Copenhagen by Goethe-Institut Dänemark and Institut français du Danemark with support by the Franco-German Cultural Fund. Inspired by the urban space around Skjolds Plads and Bispebjerg Bakke, they developed various sketches for new architectural and social initiatives in the area. Some of these drawings will be included in the exhibition at Arkitektforeningen. The exhibition consists of an installation created especially for the occasion, and it contains various artefacts and objects that associate with selected projects from Raumlabor and Collectif ETC. There is a special focus on the collectives' joint projects.
The exhibition will be on display from 7-13 June at the Architects' Association. On Wednesday 7 June there will be a special opening event from 16-18: Axel Timm and Jan Helge Theiler from Raumlabor and Théo Mouzard and Maxence Bohn from Collectif ETC will present their working practices and selected projects. There will be a special focus on the projects jointly developed by the two collectives. The audience is invited to actively participate in the conversation.
The event will be held in English and is organised in collaboration with the Copenhagen Architecture Festival and the Danish Architects' Association. It is supported by the Franco-German Cultural Fund.

Den bæredygtige livsform leves i storbyen – ikke på landet. Verdens store byer bærer nemlig på nøglen til en mere bæredygtig fremtid. I en samtale med Simon Kjær Hansen, forfatter til bogen ”Et Forsvar for Storbyen”, og Peter Aalbæk Jensen, medstifter af filmselskabet Zentropa samt initiativtager og drivkraft i udviklingen af en ny bæredygtig bydel, Herfølge Bjergby, tager vi på opdagelse i storbyen og landsbyen med en forventning om at blive klogere på, hvad vi overhovedet kan betegne som en bæredygtig livsform.
På en travl hverdagsmorgen er det svært at se, at København skulle være et grønt forbillede. Trafik, støj og os præger myldretidstrafikken. Men billedet snyder, for københavnerne kører mindre i bil, lever mere småt og med mindre CO2-belastning fra bygninger, energi og affald end den gennemsnitlige dansker. Og i modsætning til de små pionersamfund i landområdernes økokollektiver, er byerne for de mange. Omtrent hver 10. dansker bor i København og har glæde af en livsform, som er høj, tæt og fælles, og som gør det nemmere at leve grønnere.
Men er storbyens fællesskab inkluderende? Og er stordrift og mange individer på et lille areal det optimale? Den bæredygtige livsform starter da ved det menneskelige velbefindende. Deraf udspringer det mentale overskud til innovation og virkelyst. Det sker naturligt i et samspil mellem landbrug og små samfund. Her kan skabes perfekte afsætningsforhold for produktion af fødevarer, opvarmning og byggematerialer. Her kan man arbejde, hvor man bor, sende børnene ud af hoveddøren og se dem gå til skole selv, de gamle hjælper med pasning af børnene mod at selv at blive hjulpet rundt i kørestolen og få familien på besøg, når alderdommen driller. Simon Kjær Hansen og Peter Aalbæk Jensen repræsenterer forskellige syn på, hvor den bæredygtige livsform lever bedst - på landet eller i byen?

Historian and sociologist PhD René Karpantschof guides us through the streets of Nørrebro, which historically has been Denmark's 'red stronghold' and the battlefield for numerous major conflicts between the authorities and resident movements.
The tour uncovers the history of urban spaces as political battlegrounds, from the story of the BZ movement's challenge to the legal framework of housing politics, to the current housing struggles and new Danish “ghetto law”.
René Karpantschof shares insights from his personal engagement in the Copenhagen squatter movements of the 1980s, providing a unique perspective on the ongoing fight for urban justice.
Meeting point at Sankt Hans Torv.

With their mathematical precision and overwhelming complexity, the three cinematic abstractions will draw the audience into a hypnotic and swirling stimulation that challenges the ear's ability to navigate and the eye's ability to focus.
The screening of the films will be introduced by the architect and researcher Carlo Volf, who will talk about solar architecture, heliophobia and the impact of light on human behavior. The event is part of the 'Trivial Matters' program, exploring the aesthetics, politics and metaphysics of architectural materials.

According to Chauncey, there are “no queer space, (…) only spaces put to queer uses.” But can we identify common traits across the spaces queer people inhabit and produce? And could we in a Danish context even imagine a queer typology?
Join us for a conversation at Den Anden Side, the nightclub in the basement of Palads, on Tuesday 6 June, where we will talk about the party, the clinic and the refuge as three examples of queer spaces.
Simen Sorthe, queer-feminist architect and researcher, will be joined by Carlo Molino, DJ and co-founder of Group Therapy, Ditte Maria Bjerno Holst, head of Checkpoint Copenhagen, and Yanaba Mompremier Rymark Sankoh, secretary general of LGBT Asylum.
Doors and bar open at 18:00.
Event starts at 18:30.
The essays covering these spaces can be read online on CAFx Journal leading up to the festival.
This event is generously sponsored by Gehl.
All revenue from the ticket sale will be donated to AIDS-Fondet and LGBT Asylum.
