EP11 - The Power of Culture: Alejandro Aravena

In this episode, Her Excellency welcomes Chilean architect and executive director of the firm ELEMENTAL, Alejandro Aravena. After the 2010 earthquake and tsunami that hit Chile, ELEMENTAL was called to work on reconstructing the city of Constitucion. In 2010, Aravena was named one of the 20 new heroes of the world by Monocle magazine. He was the director and curator of the Architecture Section of the 2016 Venice Biennale; the same year he won the Pritzker Prize, the highest honour in architecture.
Aravena and ELEMENTAL are the architects responsible for the forthcoming Art Mill Museum in Doha. They discuss the progressive opening of industrial facilities towards public spaces in Doha and the transformation of the city's relationship with nature and the ocean, as well as the evolution of the country and its inspiration for the art mill project in Qatar.
The Power of Culture podcast explores the modern cultural development of Qatar. Through Her Excellency Sheikha Al Mayassa's conversations with leading figures in arts and culture, both local and international, and her personal commentaries on the nation's cultural landscape, the podcast explores Qatar's position as a vibrant hub for arts, culture, design, architecture, and other creative industries.
