Dynamischer Raumplan is a spatial installation<br />
based on the city as a dynamic and complex<br />
adaptive system. It displays the creation and<br />
use of energy as a critical parameter for urban<br />
planning of the 21st century and as a catalyst<br />
for a new city morphology. The installation<br />
can be read in several scales: a city block, a<br />
city district, or an urban region. At SCI-Arc.<br />

New Territories: Laboratories for Design,<br />
Craft and Art in Latin America<br />
New York City<br />
Through April 5, <strong>2015</strong><br />
This exhibition examines the confluence of<br />
art, design, and craft in several cities throughout<br />
Latin America, where some of the most<br />
pertinent new directions are emerging.<br />
New Territories explores the collaborations<br />
between small manufacturing operations and<br />
craftspersons, artists, and designers, and demonstrates<br />
how the resulting work addresses<br />
not only the issues of commodification and<br />
production, but also of urbanization, displacement,<br />
and sustainability. The exhibition<br />
explores a number of key themes, including<br />
the dialogue between contemporary trends<br />
and artistic legacies in Latin American art; the<br />
use of repurposed materials; the blending of<br />
digital and traditional skills; and the<br />
reclamation of personal and public space.<br />
At the Museum of Arts and Design. For<br />

Ways to Modernism: Josef Hoffmann,<br />
Adolf Loos, and Their Impact<br />
Vienna<br />
Through April 19, <strong>2015</strong><br />
With Ways to Modernism: Josef Hoffmann,<br />
Adolf Loos, and Their Impact, at the Museum<br />
for the Applied Arts, legendary works of Josef<br />
Hoffmann and Adolf Loos offer a portrayal<br />
of the development of Viennese modernism<br />
into a global brand. The two designers worked<br />
out contrary alternatives for modernity in<br />
art, architecture, and design; their work is<br />
shown in tandem, allowing viewers to make<br />
comparisons between their approaches.<br />
Ways to Modernism focuses not only on the<br />
thinking and key works of these two visionaries,<br />
but also the historical background of<br />
their ideas, and the continued resonance of<br />
their work in architecture and design. In<br />
addition to the late œuvres of Hoffmann and<br />
Loos, the exhibition features works by Oskar<br />
Strnad, Josef Frank, Margarete Schütte-<br />
Lihotzky, Atelier Singer-Dicker, and Anna<br />
Heringer. For more information, visit mak.at.<br />
One Way: Peter Marino<br />
Miami Beach, Florida<br />
Through May 3, <strong>2015</strong><br />
American architect Peter Marino has been<br />
celebrated over the past four decades for his<br />
forward-thinking work, which exists at the<br />
intersection of art, fashion, and architectural<br />
design. Curated by Jérôme Sans, this exhibition,<br />
at the Bass Museum of Art, explores the<br />
interplay between Marino’s iconic architectural<br />
designs and his personal collection of<br />
contemporary art, which includes pieces by<br />
Loris Gréaud, Keith Haring, Richard Serra,<br />
Rudolf Stingel, and Andy Warhol. A handful<br />
of artists, Gregor Hildebrandt and Erwin<br />
Wurm among them, will also present new<br />
work commissioned for the exhibition. For<br />

Los Angeles<br />
Through May 3, <strong>2015</strong><br />
Through the work of a select group of architectural,<br />
fine art, and news photographers,<br />
Sink or Swim casts an eye on both the problem<br />
of climate change in densely populated coastal<br />
regions and contemporary design as a means<br />
to navigate the changing landscapes. It explores<br />
the story of resilience, from adaptation<br />
for human survival to ambitious infrastruc-<br />
