Will it sustain?-Three International Exhibitions On Sustainability

Under the title WILL IT SUSTAIN? the Danish Architecture Centre is presenting three international exhibitions on the theme of the paradoxes of sustainability. The exhibitions, Behind the Green Door, The Banality of Good and Shifts can be seen in conjunction with a wide range of debates, lectures, film screenings, family activities and guided tours.

 

The exhibitions will run at the Danish Architecture Centre from 7 February to 25 May 2014 

 

Can a window be sustainable, too sustainable and completely unsustainable all at the same time? Is a solar power-operated lawn mower sustainable, when it is designed to trim the artificial and intensively irrigated golf courses in desert states? These are some of the questions and dilemmas you face when you visit the exhibition in the Danish Architecture Centre.
