Wohnungsfrage. Publikationsreihe zum Ausstellungsprojekt / A series of books published in conjunction with the exhibition project Wohnungsfrage im / at Haus der Kulturen der Welt, Berlin 23 October 14 December 2015. 12 vols
Housing creates the rooms, neighbourhoods, and streets of our daily lives. But housing issues are increasingly reduced to real-estate problems and dissociated from the cultural practices of architecture, with the notable absence of alternative social actors being painfully apparent. The result is that growing numbers of people are finding it increasingly difficult to access affordable housing on their own terms. The HKW project Wohnungsfrage investigates the fraught relationship between architecture, housing, and social reality in an exhibition of experimental housing models, an international academy, and a publication series that examines various options for self-determined, social and affordable housing. The series presents key historical works accompanied by new commentaries, contemporary case studies from around the world, and publications by activists concerned with urban policy issues, architects, and artists.00The complete editions of the Wohnungsfrage publication series:0- Martin Wagner: The growing house0- Hannes Meyer: Co-op Interieur0- Friedrich Engels: Zur Wohnungsfrage0- Collective for a Socialist architecture: Proletarian building exhibition0- Housing after the Neoliberal turn.
