‘The Color Black’ with Mohsen Mostafavi and Peter Märkli

In Mostafavi's recent publication with MACK, he unpacks the importance of the colour black for thinking about architecture. Contextualising this exploration within art history, the book presents an array of visual material, alongside Marxist German art historian Max Raphael's essay: 'The Color Black: On the Material Constitution of Form'.

After a brief lecture, Mostafavi will be in conversation with influential Swiss architect and founder of Studio Märkli, Peter Märkli, whose musings on colour and architecture form a key part of the book's narrative.
