About this Event
Architecture Film Festival Rotterdam (AFFR) and Nieuwe Instituut cordially invite you to celebrate the opening of (Un)Authorised, AFFR's second immersive media programme. Inspired by this year's location in the Nieuwe Instituut’s Re-Centre, the exhibition questions what counts as an architectural record, proposing more plural or disobedient forms of recording and cataloguing architectural histories.
(Un)Authorised explores how scale models, films, photographs, personal stories and social media shape our understanding of architecture. This presentation brings together immersive works that expose and challenge dominant archival practices. By re-examining archival material and proposing alternative archiving methods, the participating artists address the central question: what makes an architectural document?
The opening will take place in the Auditorium of the Nieuwe Instituut. After the opening you have the opportunity to visit the exhibition at the Re-Centre during the Thursday Night late-night opening.
