About

How to edit a city without opening a laptop? Architect Eduard Kubensky will talk about projects where buildings turn into manifestos and streets into pages of books. This is a chance to see Yekaterinburg through the eyes of a person for whom urbanism is not a theory, but a living and bold practice. Cities can speak - it’s just important to know how to read them between the lines. Architect Eduard Kubensky's lecture "The City Between the Lines" is an attempt to understand how the space around us becomes not just a decoration, but a participant in the cultural process. Kubensky is not only an architect but also the founder of the well-known publishing house TATLIN, which since 2001 has been changing the perception of the city as a passive structure. The publishing house views the metropolis as a platform for artistic and philosophical expression, as a text that can be edited, added to, and reread. The lecture will be interesting for those who wonder why it is necessary to bury ruined houses, how it is possible to build a temple without building materials, why orchids grow in the Urals, and where malachite has disappeared. Kubensky will share stories about exhibitions without halls, books without pages, and projects that exist only as ideas but are already influencing the perception of urban space. This meeting is a rare opportunity to hear a unique perspective on urbanism as a form of art. The focus of the conversation is not on abstract theories, but on concrete stories: architectural avant-garde, sewage as a cultural gesture, the city as an object of layout. This is a provocative lecture that can stir the imagination and make one look at familiar streets differently. For students of architectural and art universities, for urban activists, and simply the curious - this is an invitation to dialogue. The city is something more than buildings and roads. It is a book in which chapters can still be written. This is what the discussion will be about. Ideas on where to go in Yekaterinburg are collected on our website.
