SAFEHAVEN: Civil Defense in Architecture
Tel Aviv-Yafo, Israel
The exhibition SAFE HAVEN draws attention to the shelter
and to the myriad of architectural realizations of civil defense that
shape the environment and assert the presence of the security threat and
the military violence that is intrinsic to everyday life in Israel.
Defense architecture is planned in
accordance with building rules and regulations, yet in terms of the
architectural discourse, it is usually taken for granted and viewed as a
required security measure or a necessary aid. In fact, its character
and form are decided upon almost entirely outside of the planner?s
authority. Architects where not active partners in the discussion about
current defense and security legislations such as: The standardization
of civil defense through the introduction of the domestic shelter unit
in 1992 and the shift in front line security that stemmed from the
decision to secure the settlements in the area engulfing Gaza (2008).
The exhibition examines the
architectural and social implications of the presence of civil defense
in day-to-day life, as well as the role that defense architecture
fulfills in the construction of the perception of Israel being under
threat. This perspective is a breeding ground for secure living
alternatives, even if they are in their initial stages.
Opening reception: 28.12.10 at 20.00 Exhibition curators and designers are the architects: Shelly Cohen, Tula Amir, Nir Rotem, Dafna Levin and Ofir Zenathy.
