Listen "Architecton - Director Viktor Kossakovsky"
Episode Synopsis
Renown filmmaker Viktor Kossakovsky (Gunda, Aquarela) presents his spectacular new documentary, ARCHITECTON, as a poetic meditation on architecture and how the design and construction of buildings from the ancient past may reveal much about our looming destruction – as well as offer hope for survival and a way forward. He reflects on the rise and fall of civilizations while focusing on a landscape project by the Italian architect Michele De Lucchi, using imagery from the temple ruins of Baalbek in Lebanon, dating back to AD 60, to the recent destruction of cities in Turkey following a 7.8 magnitude earthquake in early 2023.Director Viktor Kossakovsky joins us to talk about the age of sugar and concrete, working with Michele De Lucchi and what this experience has taught him about the potential fate of humanity.
