Nós Brasil! We Brazil! – The German contribution to the X Architecture Biennial in São Paolo

As part of the German contribution Nós Brasil! We Brazil! for the X Architecture Biennial in São Paulo a four-part newspaper series was produced, which documents the results of the local workshops.

In the three cities of Curitiba, Porto Alegre and Salvador curator Matthias Böttger and artist / architect Luis Berríos-Negrón created a large table in the form of the letter "Y" and discussed with local activists, artists, citizens and architects: Who creates the city? The results and visions from these workshops were exhibited at the X Architecture Biennial in São Paulo and discussed in a fourth local workshop.

The papers include:

1.1. Curitiba (The Future of the Smart City)
1.2. Porto Alegre (The Future of Participatory Budgeting)
1.3. Salvador (The Future of Urban Activism)
1.4. São Paulo (The New Middle Class)
