Alberto Altés
Alberto Altés is an architect and researcher. He studied architecture in Valladolid, Barcelona and Delft, and critical theory at the Independent Studies Program in Barcelona (MACBA).
He is interested in the notions of fragility, affinity and care, and the power of choreography and dance to inform a more sensitive, responsible and engaged approach to worlding practices. He is assistant professor at Umeå School of Architecture, and co-founder of the Laboratory of Immediate Architectural Intervention, in which architecture is made and explored as a performative, relational and vitalist practice that unfolds in the making of the world in/through intraventions.
He co-edited Intravention, Durations, Effects: Notes of Expansive Sites and Relational Architectures, and is now working on the publication of his PhD dissertation, Delaying the Image: Towards an Aesthetics of Encounter, in which he approaches film as a form that thinks and as an apparatus of spatial critique, exploring the encounter as a slow, caring and open form of practice.
