grenzgeografien - informal planning in conditions of urban conflict

_symposium at the Neue Gesellschaft für Bildende Kunst NGBK
Oranienstr. 25, 10999 Berlin, Tel. 030-615 30 31

08.10.2003, 7 – 10 pm

a co-operation of the University of Arts Berlin (project Grenzgeografien)
and the AG Learning from*. The symposium has been made possible by the
Allianz Cultural Foundation and supported by the following organisations:
Bundeszentrale für politische Bildung BpB, Deutscher Akademischer
Austauschdienst DAAD, Arthur Goldreich Foundation Jerusalem.


The intensity of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict of the last decades has
transformed East Jerusalem into a laboratory of the extremes. Formal and
informal forces of urban change have become part of a complex and
inextricable urban system: Western-oriented instruments of planning have
been drafted in to cement the imposed unity and population balance of the
city through planning constraints, the construction of settlements, roads
and most recently the separation wall. Outside planning, a complex shadow
city has emerged that escapes the persistent attempts of official control
through perseverance, inventiveness and sheer scale. Here, the inhabitants
have learned to utilize limited economic and spatial resources to maximum
efficiency fusing the traditional interrelationship between social and
spatial networks with contemporary building techniques and construction
processes. The emerging informal house is a microcosm, which embodies
political, social, economic conflicts and cultural traditions in Jerusalem
at large.

Within a difficult political context, a trilateral team of Palestinian,
Israeli and German architects and architectural students has analysed
patterns and principles within informal housing developments in East
Jerusalem. Can we discover innovative potential within urban development
that emerges within a quasi war-like situation? Can existing networks,
systems and practices inform a more forward looking urban planning strategy
for Jerusalem? What instruments do we need in order to initiate and steer
such a development? During the symposium the first results of the Jerusalem
field-work will be presented and discussed in relation to recent research on
informal housing worldwide.


The symposium will begin with a series of short lectures followed by a panel
discussion in English:

30-minute lectures:	„Formality and Informality in the context of urban
conflict in Jerusalem“
‘Grenzgeografien – geographies of conflict’ is a German-Israeli-Palestinian

“Informal housing and the role of architects – pilot studies in Damascus,
