WIND BLOWS, WATER RISES
Exploring Urban Transformation in the Pearl River Delta
Exhibition
8 February – 19 March 2025
Opening
Friday, 7 February 2025, 6.30pm
Water plays a key role in times of the climate change – both as an essential resource and as a potential threat. Rising sea levels, floods, and droughts demand innovative approaches in architecture and urban planning. Wind Blows, Water Rises is dedicated to the research-based work of Doreen Heng Liu and her office NODE, which focuses intensively on the Pearl River Delta in China – one of the world’s most densely populated metropolitan regions. The exhibition showcases 13 projects that highlight the rapid urban transformation and the challenges in managing infrastructure and public space. A highlight is the research project Water and Urbanization, which was initiated by Liu at Shenzhen University. It explores water ecosystems and offers concrete solutions for how water can be used as a driving force for sustainable urban development in other regions as well.

Re-act Lab
Re-act Lab: São Paulo Architecture Experiment
with ANCB Research Partners Elisabete França and the Secretaria Municipal de Habitação of the city of São Paulo (Sehab) and S.L.U.M. Lab Columbia University, New York
12 – 22 August 2010
BACKGROUND
The ANCB series Re-act Lab has a potential-focused rather than problem-focused agenda. It confronts the particular challenges of cities or regions throughout the world by facilitating transdisciplinary enquiry into appropriate and responsible actions in architecture and urbanism. This 10-day Re-act Lab research studio will introduce a group of advanced students from across the world to the realities of Brazilian cities and provide the wider public with internal and external perspectives on these. In a series of public lectures and discussions the studio will: introduce São Paulo’s metropolitan area by revealing the contrasting morphologies and urban tissues produced over time; address the critical role of everyday life in the experience of urban space; question the possibilities created for architecture and urban planning when housing basic municipal services-key structures in improving quality of urban life; and highlight the need to develop partnerships between the city planning authorities and urban pioneers, in order to build liveable cities at the beginning of the 21st century.

TUMU Young Architecture of China
Die Ausstellung in der Galerie Aedes East in Berlin zeigte zum erstem Mal die jungen chinesischen Architekten ausserhalb des Landes. Zu diesem Zeitpunkt operierten viele noch in einer Grauzone zwischen legaler und illegaler Praxis. Mit dieser Ausstellung wurde die Aufmerksamkeit der westlichen Fachwelt auf ein neues Phänomen gelenkt. Seitdem sind die gezeigten Architekten auf vielen weiteren Ausstellungen und Symposien weltweit vertreten. Heute unterrichtet Yung Ho Chang am MIT in Boston, Ma Qingyun ist Dean an der University of Southern California, Wang Shu erhielt 2011 den Pritzker-Preis und Ai Weiwei steht unter Hausarrest.

Als die Berliner Galerie Aedes 2001 erstmals darü- ber berichtete, war das eine Sensation. Roman Hollenstein in Neue Zürcher Zeitung, 27.11.2007.
Die erste Überraschung ist dabei das Niveau: In Punkto Ästhetik können die zwanzig Projekte mit dem, was heute weltweit in Fachzeitschriften publiziert wird, locker mithalten. Hans Wolfgang Hoffmann in Frankfurter Rundschau, 27.9.2001
So sind die in der Gallerie Aedes East vorgestellten Arbeiten in einer Art Grauzone entstanden, in der Bild und Aufgabe eines Privatarchitekten erst wieder Kontur gewinnen müssen. Jürgen Tietz in Neue Zürcher Zeitung, 6.10.2001.
Die chinesischen Behörden reagierten mit völligem Unverständnis auf das Konzept einer Architekturausstellung (…). Vom Architektur-Wunderland China, das westliche Beobachter seit einigen Jahren elektrisiert, ist nichts zu sehen. Oliver Elser in Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, 25.9.2001.
Das Revolutionäre dieser Bauten wird erst aus der Binnensicht begreiflich: Ihre Entwerfer (…) machten sich selbständig. Nikolaus Bernau/Hans Wolfgang Hoffmann in Berliner Zeitung, 27.9.2001.
Indeed, the architects featured at the exhibition all try to present their own solutions to the question of natural and social environment and man-made constructions. Li Xing in China Daily, 8.10.2001.
