Peter Wall Downtown Lecture Series Fall 2015: “Forensic Architecture”

Can architecture provide new tools of political analysis and intervention?

This question is central to the work of Eyal Weizman, Israeli architect and scholar.

By examining buildings, ruins, maps, satellite imagery and citizen images and video, his research teams investigate the sites of contemporary conflicts and monitor the crimes of states. Weizman unpacks state violence from the frontier regions of Pakistan, through the forests of South America to the Israel-Palestine conflict.
