History and trust.
🇽🇰 In “The Man Who Wondered and Other Stories”, Isak Kodra, the main character, is left frozen in perpetual astonishment after surviving a wartime massacre.
Arben Idrizi’s latest book reveals how violence can become more than an event, but a way of thinking, remembering and existing.
🇱🇮 Based on a real kidnapping case from 1965, “Ebaholz, Liechtenstein” dives into the tensions beneath the surface of Liechtenstein’s seemingly orderly, wealthy society.
Mathias Ospelt transforms the case into a multilayered narrative, exploring not just the crime but the world around it: police, family, neighbours, and perpetrators.

🌍 building more sustainable and inclusive places
🤝 redefining the values shaping architecture today
This year’s EU Prize for Contemporary Architecture, supported by the Creative Europe programme, was awarded to Charleroi Palais des Expositions 🇧🇪 and Temporary National Theatre 🇸🇮, two projects that show how architecture can transform spaces, and communities.
