AA tutor Pedro Alonso has been announced as the curator of an exhibition in the forthcoming Lisbon Triennale at the Garagem Sul gallery, CCB, Lisbon.

The exhibition, titled Cycles. The Architects that Never Threw Anything Away, will examine contemporary architectural practices and artists reflecting upon the art of designing cycles, addressing their enquiries into the past and present of construction, its relation to the geopolitics of extractivism, and futures for the building industry.

Moving away from linear systems towards circular models within contemporary architecture, Cycles will showcase architecture’s compromise and complicity within the endless processes of matter’s transformation and redistribution.

The exhibition will feature the works of other AA tutors, such as Aude-Line Duliere and James Westcott.

Cycles. The Architects that Never Threw Anything Away will open at 8pm CET on Thursday 29 September at the Garagem Sul gallery, CCB, Lisbon
