‘alchemy of the third millennium’ symposium

in celebration of artek’s 75th anniversary this week, the finland-based company founded by alvar and aino aalto, maire gullichsen and nils-gustav hahl, is hosting an international symposium as a statement for the future. entitled ‘alchemy of the third millennium’, the symposium will debate the role of the classical elements–earth, water, air and fire–in contemporary art, architecture and design.

the event is streamed live for anyone to see on the web and features a roster of well know architects, artists, and specialists including japanese architect shigeru ban, pritzker prize-winning peter zumthor, golden lion winner tobias rehberger, and british principal architect amanda levete.
