Why Does Beauty Matter? (2019)

A documentary by Mies. TV
of the Tallinn Architecture Biennale

The Tallinn Architecture Biennale (TAB 2019) curated by Yael Reisner has raised the issue of Beauty in architecture. A term, often ignored by todays architects, is the focus of the exhibition and symposium. Reisner has invited not only architects, but also experts from philosophy, mathematics and neurosciences to discuss their research on beauty.

Mies. TV has been invited by the TAB 2019 to not only host an exhibition about their video-interviews, but also to report on the Biennale itself, producing a documentary titled: 'Why Does Beauty Matter'

The video features in-depth interviews with curator Yael Reisner, along participating architects Sou Fujimoto, KTA, March Studio, Space Popular, Fologram, as well as Nick Luscombe (DJ), Graham Harman (philosopher), Ron Aharoni (mathematician) and Taylor Enoch (neuroscientist)

Beauty Matters, Just like Love, It’s Real!
