Bas Princen
Sunday, 9 January 2011
Work from Refuge.
“Bas Princen brings together five cities from a region which over the past fifty years has experienced dramatic development. The five cities portrayed are Istanbul, Beirut, Amman, Cairo and Dubai. The images of Princen constitute architectural research and visual poetry at the same time. This survey has been commissioned and produced as part of the collaborative research platform diwan, initiated and curated by Philipp Misselwitz and Can Altay. Diwan brings together artists as well as leading academics, practitioners and experts from the field of architecture and urban studies in Turkey and the Middle East.” – via Refuge
