In this series of conversations, Peter Engelmann, the German philosopher, editor and founder of the prestigious publishing house Passagen Verlag, will engage important thinkers from Europe and the United States. The discussions will examine key concepts of contemporary continental philosophy, such as deconstruction and postmodernism, as they relate to his guests’ various fields of expertise - among them architecture, politics, and human rights.
Peter Eisenman is not only an internationally renowned architect, but also a leading intellectual in his field, and uniquely positioned to reflect on architecture in the light of today’s most important philosophical discourses. With his guest, Peter Engelmann will discuss the meaning of Deconstruction for Eisenman’s architecture and how his architectural work ultimately influenced Jacques Derrida’s concept of deconstruction.
