Chilean architect Smiljan Radic, along with Patricio Mardones, are the curators of the exhibition CLOUD '68 - PAPER VOICE, which will be on display from March 14 to May 18, 2018, at the Department of Architecture, ETH Zurich, Hönggerberg in Switzerland.
This exhibition commemorates the 50th anniversary of the social revolution of May 1968, paying tribute to radical European thought and its architecture from 1950 to 1970, which generated diverse perspectives of expression and design forms.
According to the press release from gta Exhibitions:
This revolution emerged after World War II, a period in which rebellion against the established order prevailed. This era saw the construction of the Berlin Wall, the Moon landing, women's liberation, anti-war protests, and Woodstock, among many other artistic and political revolutions that expanded society's mind and gave way to imagination.
The opening will take place on March 13, 2018, at 6 p.m.
