Episode Synopsis "Open Mic / Work & Social Distancing - Episode 01: Ala Tannir, Moscow 10.04.2020"
In response to the postponement of the Biennale Architettura 2020 due to the out-break of COVID-19, the Russian Federation Pavilion will launch the online podcast series “Open Mic”, with the aim to kick-start a dialogue on the functions and values of (cultural) institutions. The first contributions, titled "Work & Social Distancing", will be launched on pavilionrus.com in the next few days, focus on how this pandemic has affected our understanding and expectations of governments, companies, institutions and individuals – their roles and actions, their network of relationships and the array of symbols and aesthetics they draw on.
