Shared Spaces | Iwan Baan

Leading international architectural photographer Iwan Baan presents his expansive practice exploring public buildings and the communities that interact with them, before being joined in conversation with curator and writer Elias Redstone.

Iwan Baan’s photographs capture life that unfolds in and around the built environment. He is internationally renowned for his human-centred focus that traces how buildings gather memory and meaning through lived experience. In this talk, Baan reflects on his body of work including OMA’s CCTV Tower (Beijing), OPEN’s Chapel of Sound (Hebei) and Francis Kéré’s Gando Primary School (Burkina Faso).
