Subject: 4th Other Connections Conference


Dear Colleague,

We are pleased to announce to you the 4th International Other
Connections' Conference, to be held in Beirut between the 25th and the
28th of October, 1999. 

The conference, "Sites of Recovery: Architecture's 
(inter)disciplinary role", is dedicated to Architecture in its 
capacity to recover within a world conditioned by war and 
instability. 

'Other Connections' is a loose collective of architects, academics and
critics who live and work in places as diverse as Singapore, Turkey,
South America, USA, India, Britain, Hong Kong, New Zealand, Australia
and Lebanon. The aim of this group is to explore architectural and
urban questions within the framework of postcolonial theory and
criticism. 

Please check web site(below) for details and deadlines. We hope you 
will find the conference theme academically challenging and relevant 
to your research work and thus contribute to this academic forum 
through a paper, workshop, or exhibition proposal. Please do not 
hesitate to contact us for any inquiries.  

Thank you
