Based on research and a map-making project undertaken with the human rights organisation Btselem, Eyal Weizman and Rafi Segal curated/edited the exhibition and publication A Civilian Occupation: The Politics of Israeli Architecture. These projects were banned by the Israeli Association of Architects, but have been shown in Europe and the US and are scheduled for Tel Aviv and Johannesburg.

Weizman’s current projects implicate architecture and the built environment in issues of politics, warfare and human rights. In this lecture he explores the spatial and legal dimensions of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict as a laboratory for emerging practices and tactics across the open frontiers of todays conflicts.
