Midterm presentation of IBA Heidelberg
Before all building projects of IBA Heidelberg will be exhibited at a final presentation in 2022, IBA gave a comprehensive insight into its projects and processes in 2018.
The exhibition
The centre of the midterm presentation was an extensive exhibition at the Mark-Twain-Center. All IBA projects were presented concisely to the public for the first time. The progress from the first idea to the real building, square or park was illustrated on the basis of design concepts and expert opinions, reports from workshops or construction sites. Interactive exhibition elements offered the opportunity to browse and discover. The exhibition also looked at other science cities of comparable size and showed how urban development is discussed internationally. Visions and projects from international Knowledge Pearls such as Leuven, Lund or Cambridge served as examples and were made tangible at different stations where visitors could experience them with the senses of hearing, seeing and touching.
The event program
The exhibition was enriched by an event program, which was created with more than fifty cooperation partners: Among them were the University of Heidelberg, the German-American Institute, the Street Art Festival Metropolink, the Theater Heidelberg as well as various architectural and urban planning collectives. In ten weeks, more than 60 events and over 40 guided tours took place – a mix of walks, movies, lectures, workshops, symposia, a school program and other formats. Events of the IBA projects and candidates offered the opportunity to get to know the places and people behind the projects in person.
The feedback
IBA Heidelberg had sought dialog and interaction with the public through the exhibition and the event program. Around 20,000 visitors attended the midterm presentation in 2018 with the exhibition and its various event formats.
