Indians In Their Public Spaces - An Expert Talk By G Shankar Narayan

Goethe-Zentrum Hyderabad is hosting a talk show by G Shankar Narayan on the topic of "Indians In Their Public Spaces", on 18th October, at the German Association's office premises in Hermitage Complex, Hillfort Road, Opp. Assembly.

One of the ways of understanding people is observing their attitudes and actions in the public realm, for example the use of public spaces. Indeed, the form that our villages, towns and cities have taken is a result of these attitudes. The talk along with visuals will seek to look at the changing nature of ourselves through the lens of our public spaces.

G Shankar Narayan is a famous architect practising since 1987, and is known for innovative designs, cost-effective and eco-friendly techniques of construction, professionalism and financial integrity. A recipient of the prestigious State Architect of the Year Award 2004, he was a member of the jury for the INTACH Heritage Awards 2005. He also authored a fortnightly column, Nothing Concrete – Musings on Architecture, in Deccan Chronicle during 2004-05.
