presentation Toppled, a book by Florian Göttke

ToppledThe release of Florian Göttke's book Toppled inspired Stroom Den Haag to invite the renowned Swiss art historian, author and curator Dario Gamboni to give a lecture on 'asymmetrical conflict', a term which has gained greater currency since the intentional destruction of the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001. The phrase is used to define a situation opposing two parties widely differing in terms of power, legitimacy, means and organisation. Can a correlation be established between the degree of asymmetry of a conflict and the tendency of its 'weaker' party (in conventional terms) to resort to iconoclasm?

Thursday April 29 8pm

Improvisations on Urbanity

In this publication trendy pragmatism coincides with the improvisation of jazz music. The result is a plan of action to constructively deal with disorder in urbanism. Improvisation acknowledges disorder and works with existing potentials. Improvisation means, therefore, to work with reality but at the same time, create reality.
In a time where diverse life forms and rational principals coexist, urbanism becomes more and more inoperative. As the urban becomes even more complex, we have to begin to reflect upon how orders are created and negotiated. This means that orders are not given, but have to be improvised. The urban is designed by a performative imperative. If the subject of industrialism was governed by corporate regulations, it now has to govern itself. But how does that work? How do we create new forms of self-governing? How do we organize and produce social space under these circumstances?
