The 'Winterlezingen 2018' series, subtitled 'Amsterdamse Stadsuitbreidingen' (Amsterdam Urban Expansions), delves into the pivotal urban development plans that have shaped Amsterdam since the early 20th century. Over six lectures, the program investigates the ideological foundations behind these plans and how they were translated into reality, questioning the enduring relevance of their visions. Each lecture focuses on specific expansion projects, sometimes in combination with similar plans, tracing the city's growth from Plan Zuid and the Zuidas, through the 'villages' in Amsterdam-Noord and the Algemeen Uitbreidingsplan (AUP) including Buitenveldert, to the Bijlmermeer and Plan van Gool, and finally to IJburg, Zeeburgereiland, and the future Haven-Stad. These events were scheduled at various locations across Amsterdam, often complemented by activities such as guided tours of the buildings or neighborhoods discussed.
Information regarding ticket availability for specific lectures, including potential at-the-door sales for 'Plan Zuid en Zuidas', is mentioned, advising contact for details and recommending cash for door purchases.
