Paulo Tavares "Trees, Vines, Palms and​ Other Architectural Monuments", 2018-present

We dig up some unreleased fragments of our conversation with architect, artist and curator Paulo Tavares. His reflections touch on the role of museums in shaping public discourse, on their engagement and connection with the environment and the climate crisis, and on how they can avoid succumbing to the rhetoric of greenwashing.

In this podcast, we ask Brazilian architect, researcher, and writer Paulo Tavares to respond to Audre Lorde’s enduring question: “The master’s tools will never dismantle the master’s house.” Drawing on examples from projects such as Trees, Vines, Palms and Other Architectural Monuments, and reflecting on what he calls “a moment of shift” in today’s political climate, Paulo develops his notion of “critical proximity” as well as his understanding of architecture as a political field. We also interrogate ourselves about what a sustainable museum should be, while tackling systemic epistemic deficiencies and the politics of narrative.

In this podcast, we sit down with transdisciplinary researcher and curator Yaiza Hernández to get to the heart of her deep-dive research into what she has coined Terminal Tourism. Drawing upon the long tradition of academic scholarship, but also from a situated perspective as a native from the Canary Islands, Yaiza unpacks the constellation of problems orbiting the travel industry, from environmental degradation to rampant gentrification and the subsequent disruption of local infrastructures, and a whole host of other socioeconomic inequalities.
