meet you in sarajevo

dear all, dear ana and marc,
I DO envy you, that you’re already there on the road !!! but I’m certainly looking forward to join you at the end in Sarajevo. as I am working on a book project comparing eight cities in Europe (one of them being Sarajevo)in terms of strategies (or tactics) of urban development I will stay in the city for “field work” all the week from the 19th to 27th of august and be delighted to be part of the final step of LHE.
some of our main subjects of comparison in the project are different conditions of (public)space, patterns of formal/informal intervention, the significance of temporary use and imprints of power. and of course the most fun part is to “collect” subjective local information… so I would very much appreciate any advice or contact in the city also for the time before 24th !! for example, azra, if there was the chance to know more about your project on the arizona market it would be wonderful!
so bye for today I'll keep track virtually and look forward to see you for real soon

Informal urbanism talks in Sarajevo
Dear Ute,
thank you for you interest and I am very much looking forward to meeting you along the LHE. I am not sure I will have the opportunity to present my Arizon Market study in Sarajevo, since I will be focusing on my current research about Islamic architecture in BiH. However, I will be happy to send you some material about it once I have access to my files...However, there will be a very interesting visit&talk on Aug. 23rd to the illegally built hotel Saraj, which will deal with some of the issues you are interested in in relation to Sarajevo. I definitely recomend you this point of the program.
Best regards+see you soon,
Azra
