It constantly negotiates between material practice and intellectual reflection, yet throughout the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, many architects felt that the built project alone was insufficient to address the full range of questions facing the discipline. Economic pressures, political contexts, and programmatic demands often narrowed the scope of practice.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.archdaily.com\/tag\/exhibitions\">Exhibitions<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.archdaily.com\/tag\/curatorship\">curatorial platforms<\/a>, by contrast, created spaces of experimentation and critique, opening arenas where architecture could interrogate itself, where its past could be reinterpreted, its present challenged, and its future projected. In this tension, the figure of the architect-curator emerged, treating curating itself as a form of design \u2014 not of walls or facades, but of discourse, narratives, and frameworks of meaning.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.archdaily.com\/1035190\/staging-culture-the-architect-as-curator\">Read more \u00bb<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u2018Zero Gravity Urbanism &#8211; Principles for a New Livability\u2019 at the Abbazia di San Gregorio, [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1702,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[19],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.theboudoirvixen.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1700"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.theboudoirvixen.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.theboudoirvixen.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.theboudoirvixen.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.theboudoirvixen.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1700"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"http:\/\/www.theboudoirvixen.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1700\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1703,"href":"http:\/\/www.theboudoirvixen.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1700\/revisions\/1703"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.theboudoirvixen.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1702"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.theboudoirvixen.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1700"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.theboudoirvixen.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1700"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.theboudoirvixen.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1700"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
