Conversation with OFFICE Kersten Geers David Van Severen and Vincent Meessen


A conversation with OFFICE Kersten Geers David Van Severen and artist Vincent Meessen, moderated by the researcher and architectural historian Dennis Pohl (TU Delft)


16 May 2023, 19h
CIVA, Brussels.  In the framework of the exhibition After / D’après / Na by Vincent Meessen at CIVA


The event is conceived as a reflection on the respective perspectives, intentions and expectations of the architectural project Office 119 (Der Bau), which is at the heart of Vincent Meessen’s exhibition After/D’Apres/Na at CIVA. The title of the project denotes a shared history and a form of entanglement. Both a number in a project list (Office 119) and the title of an unfinished short story by Franz Kafka (Der Bau), the project is located in an interstitial zone: between art and architecture.
