Fifty years after the landmark 1975 Tendenzen exhibition at ETH Zurich - which first brought the Ticino architectural movement to international attention - Tendenzen at 50 revisits the original event through archival research, unpublished materials, and new photography to examine how it shaped architectural discourse and why it remains relevant today.
As part of the exhibition's public events programme, a panel discussion will take place on Wednesday 25 March at ETH Zurich. Adam Caruso will join Linda Schädler, Adam Szymczyk, and Roland Züger for a conversation moderated by Irina Davidovici and Frida Grahn.
