Broken Nature - symposium no.2 - FONNA FORMAN TEDDY CRUZ

One and a half months before the opening of the XXII Triennale, The Museum of Modern Art will host the second Broken Nature symposium, exploring the notion of restorative design. Drawing on architecture, urban planning, geopolitics, linguistics, and other overlapping fields of research, the symposium traces design’s potential to repair humans’ collapsing bonds with nature, and offers a dynamic exchange of opinions through individual presentations, panel conversations, a debate, and video contributions.

Confirmed speakers include, in alphabetical order: Maurice Cox, Teddy Cruz, Heather Davis, Karthik Dinakar, Susannah Drake, Fonna Forman, Ursula K. Heise, Antonia Juhasz, Neri Oxman, Cara Smyth, and Dori Tunstall. Paola Antonelli and Stefano Boeri (La Triennale’s president) will introduce the afternoon.

Teddy Cruz & Fonna Forman are legends. Their work has been unwavering & consistent around themes of geopolitics, poverty, migration. They’re the type of designers I aspire to be.
