Starting from the notion of Cosmologies, the series approaches anomalies in urban and architectural research not as marginal exceptions, but as openings onto multiple and coexisting worlds that challenge how spatial transformations in China – and beyond – are usually interpreted. The program unfolds through ten events organized around three themes – Global Ruralism(s), Architectural Knowledge, and Infrastructure-led Urbanization – including reading labs, talks with international guests (Víctor Muñoz Sanz, Doreen Heng Liu, Zhu Pei, Zhengli Huang), and movie screenings, conceived as spaces for discussion, exchange, and collective reflection.

 

The Event Series curated by China Room PhD doctoral candidates anticipates the tenth anniversary of the China Room (DAD–DIST) research group.
