On Saturday, 12 November, the Metropolitan Museum of Art is hosting a daylong series of lectures, conversations and film screenings that examine the past year in architecture and design. The event, In Our Time: A Year of Architecture in a Day, includes speakers like Emanuel Christ of the firm Christ and Gantenbein (on their recent expansion of Kunstmuseum Basel), the photographer Wolfgang Tillmans (on his anti-Brexit poster campaign) and the architect Elizabeth Diller of Diller, Scofidio and Renfro (on the future of architecture in New York). Among the films is a tribute to the late Zaha Hadid, who died in March. It includes reflections on her work from architects like Norman Foster and Bjarke Ingels.
