After the premiere of “Plattenbauten – Inseln der Gegenwart” by Maximilian Hanisch and Sarah Methner, they meet the author Steffen Mau in conversation. Together with the artist and urban researcher Stefanie Bürkle, they talk about transformation processes of living spaces.

Steffen Mau is Professor of Sociology at the Humboldt University in Berlin. He deals with questions of socio-structural change and social inequality.

Stefanie Bürkle is Professor of Fine Arts at the TU Berlin. As department head, she is responsible for the artistic education of students at the Institute of Architecture.
As an artist and urban researcher, she initiates her own artistic research projects and art projects. She investigates topics such as “City as Construction Site”, “Artificial Worlds”, “Facade-Wallpaper-Space-Architecture” with different media such as painting, photography and video. By integrating artistic and scientific methods, new readings of projection surfaces and the spaces behind them emerge.
