In conjunction with the launch of Neri&Hu's second monograph Thresholds: Space, Time and Practice, Neri&Hu and JuanZong Books will co-host a panel discussion at UCCA Edge on October 10th. The discussion, revolving around the theme of "thresholds," will focus on a series of contemporary issues in various global contexts while maintaining an intellectual inquiry into adaptive reuse and the role of history, reimagined spatial legibility, a search for a connection back to the vernacular, and the role of collective memory and fragments. The panel discussion will be moderated by Kim Deng, Editorial Director of Wallpaper* China and Guest Researcher at Southeast University.

Speakers include: Lyndon Neri & Rossana Hu (Founding Partners of Neri&Hu, Shanghai), Domitilla Dardi(Design Curator at MAXXI National Museum of XXI Century Arts, Rome), Li Xiangning (Dean of Tongji University College of Architecture and Urban Planning, Shanghai), Philip Tinari (Director&CEO of Ullens Center for Contemporary Art, Beijing), Sarah M. Whiting (Dean of Architecture at Harvard University Graduate School of Design, Cambridge), and Zhang Ke (Founder of ZAO/standardarchitecture, Beijing).
