What Makes An Assembly? book launch with Markus Bader, Markus Miessen, Aleksandra Walisjowska and Florian Malzacher

On Saturday, 21 January, the Evens Foundation will host a launch event at Berlin bookshop Pro qm for What Makes An Assembly?

Weaving together the anthropological, aesthetic, and political aspects of assembly-making, What Makes An Assembly? explores the potential of assemblies to reimagine the way democracy is practiced in contemporary societies. Published by Sternberg Press, it is available worldwide online and in all good architecture and design bookshops.

“A truly innovative volume inside and out. Learn from practitioners, activists, philosophers, historians, and architects about assemblies as a governmental and social movement practice.” – Hans Asenbaum, political theorist and contributor

The launch will include a live discussion between some of the publication’s contributors: architects Markus Bader (ram labor), Markus Miessen, and Aleksandra Wasikowska, and curator and dramaturgist Florian Malzacher.

The discussion will be moderated by the publication’s editors: Anne Davidian, curator at the Evens Foundation, and sociologist Laurent Jeanpierre.

The event is free to attend, and the conversation will be in English.
