9 days of architectural workshops in Vienna: the Vienna Architecture Summer School (VAS²) is an independent learning space for students, graduates and drop-outs in architecture or any other related discipline. Away from established hierarchies of universitary structures, we aim for exchange and negotiation of knowledges beyond dominating institutions and mainstream discourses.
Through the act of copying, we observe, learn and question an impulse that architecture has often pursued, either discreetly or overtly. The presented works are reproductions of objects found in public spaces, examining their anonymity, repetition, identity and presence within the urban landscape. By altering the material, scale, and context, these familiar forms are displaced and reinterpreted, revealing the city as a space of possibility, reflection, and unexpected meaning.
