General theme: Liminal
Liminality is the quality of ambiguity or disorientation that occurs in the middle stage of a rite of passage, when participants no longer hold their pre-ritual status but have not yet begun the transition to the status they will hold when the rite is complete.
About Liminal (state of in-betweenness)

Arnold van Gennep’s in “Les Rites de Passage” (1908), introduced the term into the field of anthropology. Van Gennep drew the attention to liminality, as a new abbreviated form of an individual´s deliberate and voluntary transition into a disoriented, intermediate state – through time amidst a ritual.

Since CIAM (Congrès Internationaux d'Architecture Moderne) in 1959 Van Eyck was anthropologizing architecture into in- betweenness. Van Eyck thusly marked the beginning of ‘architectural structuralism’ and stated an attempt to reunite spatial and temporal polarities, to evoke a sense of place.

Since the 1950´s, Victor Turner, a cultural anthropologist, on the other hand, reintroduced liminality into anthropology in his essay, “Liminal to Liminoid, in Play, Flow, and Ritual” (1974)

Georges Teyssot’s “Aldo van Eyck´s Threshold: The Story of an Idea” (2008), where liminality and in-betweenness were firstly articulated in architecture. The spacetime image of liminality extends into the context of urban morphology, where liminality temporally exists as a ‘framing’ in an urban pattern. But it also exists in a duration – suspended in time – transitorily mediated in reality and fiction.
Where liminality is touched through the human sense of time amidst a physical environment, to its exposure, in an urban context, as a margin – a liminal threshold – of the temporal image of architecture in Jane M. Jacobs and Stephen Cairns’ “Buildings Must Die” (2014).

Terms such as abandonment, ruination, and dereliction exemplify a presence with liminality, as a gradually dispersing phenomenon into the progressive placidity of an urban setting. Evidently not to be neglected the adverse context of post-pandemic uncertainty and multiple national and international crises of today.
