Mariabruna Fabrizi: Field and Wall
The work of the Microcities studio is presented through two parallel perspectives: on one side through its architectural and urban projects, and on the other through topics centered around the developing online atlas of art, architecture, and media Socks (socks-studio.com). Both layers are largely interconnected and influence each other. All projects of the studio arise from research, competitions, and commissions, as well as from the creation of texts and curatorial activities.

Mariabruna Fabrizi studied at Roma Tre University in Rome and is the founder and partner of the Paris architectural studio Microcities. Together with Fosco Lucarelli, she is currently conducting independent research realized on the pages of Socks-studio.com. She is a co-curator of the main exhibition at the Lisbon Architecture Triennale titled Form of Form.

Małgorzata Pizio-Domicz: Architecture and Small Towns
The lecture will present her initial projects and realizations created in the public sector as well as those that Małgorzata Pizio-Domicz worked on with her husband in their own studio. M. i A. Domicz is a small family studio that processes building designs in Opole, Poland, and its surroundings. They strive for dignity and simplicity akin to minimalism, which is neither common nor easily accepted in regional towns like Opole.

Małgorzata Pizio-Domicz studied architecture at the Polytechnic in Poznań. From 1980 to 1990, she worked in state project enterprises. Since 1990, she has collaborated with Antoni Domicz. In 2014, they were jointly awarded an honorary recognition from SARP, the highest award of the Polish Association of Architects for lifetime achievement.
