October 1st, 6-8pm
launch at Quanyechang, Dashilar

With the launch of Issue III, and the theme of escapism in mind, Concrete Flux asks the public two questions:

Why did you come here? Where will you go?

The answers will be live projected onto the walls of the space in an attempt to blur the lines between what it means to come to a place, whether that be a geographical location or a frame of mind, and to go somewhere else; to stay and to leave.

Archizines + Paper Manifestoes! Book creators discussion

Making Paper Manifestoes

Paper Manifestoes is curated by WAI Think Tank, Hao Chen and Ziyue Liu to present independent and alternative Beijing-based publications dealing with space. These printed works oscillate from the abstract domain of the virtual world, to the physical concreteness of architecture, moving from the micro scale of domestic containment to the greater scope of urbanism.

Commemorating the publication of the third issue of the WAIzine What About It?(part of the Archizines Exhibition) and the artist’s book Shapes Islands Text: A Garcia Frankowski Manifesto (Vibok Works, Sevilla) ‘Paper Manifestoes’ gathers magazines, fanzines, pamphlets and artist books produced in Beijing.

Paper Manifestoes will be presented together with the Beijing edition of the travelling exhibition Archizines curated by Elias Redstone. The exhibition will be accompanied with workshops about self-publishing, talks and discussions with the editors of alternative magazines and artist books.

WAI Architecture Think Tank is a Beijing-based practice founded by artists, architects and authors Cruz Garcia and Nathalie Frankowski.
Curators: WAI Think Tank, Hao Chen and Ziyue Liu
