Shenzhen-ness: space in mutation

Více o knize

Shenzhen is a city full of vitality. With its twelve million inhabitants it is a dense migrant city that was built randomly in a short period. Its history of development is a linear intersection of occasion and inevitability. Called into existence in 1979 with the establishment of the Shenzhen Special Economic Zone (SEZ), the city became a place where export-oriented manufacturers have been producing and assembling an enormous amount of goods. The exhibition 'SHENZHEN-ness: Space in Mutation' demonstrates the urban transformation on the basis of five cases: Shenzhen-Hong Kong Entry and Exit Border Controls, Shenzhen Hi-tech Zone, Huaqiangbei, Xiasha Square, and Dafen Village. These unique spatial prototypes illustrate the unconventional production process of Industry 4.0.00Exhibition: Aedes Architecture Forum, Berlin, Germany (30.06. - 15.08.2018).
