Join us for a lecture from international visitor Alfredo Gutiérrez Borrero, offering ‘material (and problematic) answers from the multiplicity that we are here and now.’ Alfredo Gutiérrez Borrero is Associate Professor at the School of Product Design at Universidad Jorge Tadeo Lozano in Bogotá, Colombia, and visits Aotearoa as a guest of Objectspace and AUT School of Future Environments. Gutiérrez Borrero introduces his presentation: “The lecture deals with material narratures (the materialized and materializing narratives of nature and culture) explanations, implications and applications of what has been, as the established tapestry of memory – of what has happened, what has gone before us, and with desires as the conglomerate of possibilities of what will happen after. From the deeply rooted reinterpretation of multiple relational localities, this lecture will present a questioning conversation of the linearity of Western time that begins in the past and moves forward into the future. How do we read the strata of design that have become archaeological objects? How do we converse with things (in terms of what we say through them and also of what we speak with them)? In the key of the south, of the other, of the other names – what has occupied this place (what pre-occupies it) and what is going to occupy it (what will re-occupy it)?” — This lecture takes place in AUT’s WA Building Conference Centre, best entry via Gate 2 – view a city campus map here. Spaces are limited and registration is essential. Join us for a drink from 5.30pm – Gutiérrez Borrero’s lecture will begin 6pm sharp. — Alfredo Gutiérrez Borrero (b. 1968, Bogotá, Colombia) is Associate Professor at the School of Product Design at Universidad Jorge Tadeo Lozano in Bogotá, Colombia. In his work Alfredo is concerned with the spatial intertwining and happening of the relationality between diverse futures and pasts, desires and memories, archaeologies and designs – as modalities of actualisation of materiality in the present times. He is interested in everything that plays the role of design within the traditions and customs of human groups that by decision or situation have exteriority to the Western world. His work has been discussed and presented in various countries in Latin America and Europe, the United States and New Zealand and in 2017 he carried out a doctoral research internship under the direction of Leali'ifano Dr. Albert L Refiti within the AUT School of Art and Design. — Alfredo Gutiérrez Borrero visits Aotearoa as a guest of Objectspace and Auckland University of Technology's School of Future Environments.
