Events
Through a constant programming of events, Storefront provides a forum for discussion of contemporary issues through book discussions, film screenings or performances. As a platform to expose innovative ideas in relation to established discourses, Storefront operates as a space of encounter between institutionalized realms of practice and emerging voices through new formats of exchange and debate.
Examples of artists and architects that have participated in Storefront events, include Enrique Walker, Kersten Geers & David Van Severen, Sho Shigematsu OMA, Bernard Tschumi, Peter Cook, Anthony Vidler, Mark Wigley, Chris Leong & Dominic Leong, Felicity Scott, David Benjamin, Lindsay Bremner, Raumlabor, Prem Krishnamurthy, Juergen Mayer, Jimenez Lai, Spyros Papapetros, Mitchell Joachim or Saskia Sassen.

Famous quotes containing the word events:
“It is clear to everyone that astronomy at all events compels the soul to look upwards, and draws it from the things of this world to the other.”
—Plato (c. 427–347 B.C.)
“That’s the great danger of sectarian opinions, they always accept the formulas of past events as useful for the measurement of future events and they never are, if you have high standards of accuracy.”
—John Dos Passos (1896–1970)
“If I have renounced the search of truth, if I have come into the port of some pretending dogmatism, some new church, some Schelling or Cousin, I have died to all use of these new events that are born out of prolific time into multitude of life every hour. I am as bankrupt to whom brilliant opportunities offer in vain. He has just foreclosed his freedom, tied his hands, locked himself up and given the key to another to keep.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
