Mies Goes Future | Dirk Lohan

With his extensive knowledge about the history of Ludwig Mies van der Rohe and his architectural philosophy, the Architect Dirk Lohan shares his views, as a representative of the community of heirs of Mies van der Rohe, about the importance of a visitor center for the House Lemke as a place for education and exchange. Lohan also talks about what thoughts and approaches need to be pursued in preparation.

This conversation is part of the ongoing film- and exhibition project Mies Goes Future inviting artists, architects, art and architecture historians to explore the possibilities of how the future of the Mies van der Rohe House as an institution can be shaped. In different formats, such as interviews, monologues, sketches, photographs or drawings, the connection to the work of the architect Mies van der Rohe as a source of inspiration will be expressed clearly. The contributions are presented in the Mies van der Rohe House, on the website and on the YouTube channel of the house.

The film- and exhibition project is curated by Esenija Bannan
