Description
In collaboration with CAFx, AHC invites you to join us on 27 August for a screening and performance lecture with architect Skafte Aymo-Boot and conceptual sculptor and filmmaker Maria Lalou. The evening will take its starting point in their newly published book, [UN]FINISHED - Atlas of Athens’ Incomplete Buildings - A Story of Hidden Antimonuments, in which they present and unfold the phenomenon of a particular pending architecture.
The architectural archetype of the unfinished concrete building can be found everywhere in the Athenian cityscape. Those structures, left in the middle of a discontinued building process in a seemingly never-ending pause, are signs of invisible financial and political structures defining the physical appearance of the city. With its character of a ruin of a forgotten purpose the unfinished building is at the same time pointing to the past and to the future, as a frozen moment of time preserved ever since its volume reached that concrete state.

ABOUT MARIA LALOU
Maria Lalou is a Greek conceptual sculptor and experimental filmmaker. Her work focuses on the political of the viewer, in the form of installations, performances, filmic documents and publications. She has published two monographs [theatro], Onomatopee - 2015 & the camera, Dolce Publications - 2019.
ABOUT SKAFTE AYMO-BOOT
Skafte Aymo-Boot is a Danish architect with an independent design and research practice. He has realised a variety of permanent and temporary works in Europe and Asia, many of which are the result of collaborations with artists operating in the overlap between architecture and visual art. He is also a partner at the architectural office OP – Open Platform in Copenhagen.
Since 2012, Lalou & Aymo-Boot work together on [UN]FINISHED, their continuous research on the unfinished concrete buildings of Athens. In 2020, they founded ‘cross section archive’ in Athens, a space for art & architecture, exploring urban phenomena that occur in the intersection of those disciplines and how historical facts, political structures and everyday circumstances have been interfering with, forming, and directing them. They curate an annual thematic program of research and exhibitions, inviting artists, architects and thinkers to collectively investigate and expand the theme at stake, and publish the zine ‘Document’.
