Τitle: The Door as Starting Point: on Semiotics of Space
date: 29 October 2015
time: 17:00 - 19:00
venue: Room 327, Chemistry Building, Msida Campus
About the topic:
Doors define the borders of public and private space and they still provide safety protection and thermal isolation but they are much more than a simple mechanism. Because there are visible doors which lead nowhere and hidden doors that might unlock the access to freedom, this talk is a short passage through doors in architecture, literature and film.
The general public is cordially invited to attend this public lecture.
