Anupama Kundoo. Construyendo conocimiento

An exhibition devoted to the work of Anupama Kundoo, a leading figure in contemporary architectural research, at the Museo ICO in Madrid. It brings together drawings, models and a full-size reconstruction of part of her house in Auroville.

The Museo ICO has produced this exhibition, designed by the author's own studio, which traces her career from 1990. Kundoo advocates a building practice centred on people, respect for the climate and the responsible use of local materials. Her projects revive traditional crafts techniques and seek lasting solutions that are integrated into their surroundings, in contrast to mass production and large-scale industrial models.

The route through the galleries is organised into three sections: La arquitectura del tiempo, Proyectos and Trayectoria. Visitors will find drawings, plans, models, photographs, audiovisual material, various objects and building materials. A full-size reconstruction of part of her house in Auroville, India, stands out, allowing visitors to see up close how she resolves space. The pieces show the working and research process behind each solution.

The exhibition marks the creator's return to the museum after her first participation at the centre and forms part of the celebration of its anniversary. With its focus on process and sustainable construction, it will appeal to anyone who wants to learn how architecture and design can influence society.
