 OMMUNITY VOL.2\nSeven exemplary projects and case studies\n\nCommunity is 
 an ambivalent concept. It involves both gathering through shared customs a
 nd exclusion. Some claim that inclusive communities do not exist. Recent h
 istory shows people more often unite through exclusion than inclusion. How
 ever\, communities are not sealed. Philosopher Roberto Esposito explains t
 hat community ‘is not a property or territory to defend but a void\, a d
 ebt\, and a gift to others’\, reminding us of our otherness.\n\nThis lec
 ture series explores the topic of community through architecture. How does
  architecture explore\, define\, or enable communities? Can architects col
 laborate directly with communities\, bypassing institutional entities? How
  can design convey a collective experience? Seven emerging and established
  architectural figures respond to these questions through their work\, whi
 ch spans film\, exhibitions\, and communitarian buildings.\n\nSave the dat
 es and join us on Tuesday evenings!\n
