Beyond Eternity – Architecture Facing the Impermanence

(Arian Lehner, Austria, 2024, 60 min, English, English subtitles)

This visually captivating documentary explores architecture in the context of climate change, resource scarcity, the circular economy, or the refugee crisis. Conceived as a visit to an architectural triennial in the United Arab Emirates, the film features speeches by a number of international artists and architects in addition to a Nigerian curator. This inspiring cinematic meditation encourages pause and reflection on where architecture, and the world in general, is headed. Or have we gone too far?

Following the Thursday's lecture, a colloquium with Thomas Thaler takes place on Friday, 10 October 2025.

The meeting offers a unique opportunity for open discussion with a world-renowned expert on just urban adaptation to climate change. Together, we will reflect on how to strengthen urban resilience without deepening social inequalities, address the risks of green gentrification, and explore ways to reconcile adaptation with principles of justice.

The colloquium is intended for all those engaged in the study of climate adaptation, urbanism, planning, or social justice in the urban environment.
