We meet four inspiring urban architects \u2013 Phyllis Lambert, Blanche Lemco van Ginkel, Cornelia Hahn Oberlander and Denise Scott Brown. Thanks to their innate talent, minds and will, they forged a path into what was a \u2018male profession\u2019.<\/p>\n
Their creative lives have been dedicated to a special passion \u2013 to create a beautiful, comfortable, healthy, and inclusive living space for everyone, not just the wealthiest. They are women who have for decades been fascinated and have fascinated others with realistic dreams: sustainable solutions, the conservation of historic districts, pedestrian-friendly environments, parks, landscaping, green roofs, and playgrounds \u2013 ideas that no longer surprise anyone. It is obvious and unfortunate that often these dreams are not brought to life by people of their kind \u2013 people who are primarily driven by art and science. Cities evolve and change. This must be allowed and helped to happen with a clear understanding of what should be preserved and what it is time to say goodbye to.<\/p>\n","images":[{"ID":15808,"id":15808,"title":"City Dreamers","filename":"City-Dreamers.jpg","filesize":1649698,"url":"https:\/\/rigaiff.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/City-Dreamers.jpg","link":"https:\/\/rigaiff.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/City-Dreamers.jpg","alt":"","author":"2","description":"","caption":"Fonds Phyllis Lambert\/First Run Features","name":"city-dreamers","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":15779,"date":"2020-09-01 09:13:28","modified":"2020-09-01 09:13:42","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","type":"image","subtype":"jpeg","icon":"https:\/\/rigaiff.lv\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":2048,"height":1606,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/rigaiff.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/City-Dreamers-150x150.jpg","thumbnail-width":150,"thumbnail-height":150,"medium":"https:\/\/rigaiff.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/City-Dreamers-250x196.jpg","medium-width":250,"medium-height":196,"medium_large":"https:\/\/rigaiff.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/City-Dreamers-768x602.jpg","medium_large-width":768,"medium_large-height":602,"large":"https:\/\/rigaiff.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/City-Dreamers-700x549.jpg","large-width":700,"large-height":549,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/rigaiff.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/City-Dreamers-1536x1205.jpg","1536x1536-width":1536,"1536x1536-height":1205,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/rigaiff.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/City-Dreamers.jpg","2048x2048-width":2048,"2048x2048-height":1606,"large1200":"https:\/\/rigaiff.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/City-Dreamers.jpg","large1200-width":1200,"large1200-height":941,"large1800":"https:\/\/rigaiff.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/City-Dreamers.jpg","large1800-width":1800,"large1800-height":1412,"small":"https:\/\/rigaiff.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/City-Dreamers-120x94.jpg","small-width":120,"small-height":94,"uncompressed":"https:\/\/rigaiff.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/City-Dreamers.jpg","uncompressed-width":2048,"uncompressed-height":1606,"custom-size":"https:\/\/rigaiff.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/City-Dreamers-700x200.jpg","custom-size-width":700,"custom-size-height":200}}],"in_cinemas":null,"on_demand":null,"not_available":null,"rights_expiry_date":null,"trailer_url":"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=qwWxKhVo8j0","film_category":"303","film_category_title":"ARCHITECT\u2019S CUT","film_category_link":"https:\/\/rigaiff.lv\/en\/programme-2020\/architects-cut\/","film_parent_select":[17799],"screenings":[{"type":"cinema","free":false,"closed":false,"venue":"lnb","subtitle_language":[{"value":"en","label":"English (en)"}],"audio_language":[{"value":"lv","label":"Latvian (lv)"}],"url":"","bilesu_servisa_id":"320646","date":"19","time":"19:00","end_date":"","time_end":"","event_post_title":"City Dreamers","event_post_url":"https:\/\/rigaiff.lv\/en\/films-2020\/pilsetu-sapnotajas\/","event_parent_details":[]},{"type":"cinema","free":false,"closed":false,"venue":"online","subtitle_language":[{"value":"en","label":"English (en)"}],"audio_language":[],"url":"","bilesu_servisa_id":"320521","date":"19","time":"19:00","end_date":"","time_end":"","event_post_title":"City Dreamers","event_post_url":"https:\/\/rigaiff.lv\/en\/films-2020\/pilsetu-sapnotajas\/","event_parent_details":[]}],"artist":null,"album":null,"custom_supporter_title":"","supporter":false,"curators_foreword":"The recent past, when activism and preserving heritage were not yet fashionable.
