The 2nd Lilly Reich Grant for Equality in Architecture has been awarded to the realization of the documentary “[On Set with] Lilly Reich”

Fundació Mies van der Rohe and Ajuntament de Barcelona have announced today, in a press conference held online, that the 2nd Lilly Reich Grant for Equality un Architecture has been awarded to the research proposal: “ Lilly Reich” by Valencian architects Laura Lizondo Sevilla, Débora Domingo Calabuig and Avelina Prat García.

The event was attended by Anna Ramos (director of Fundació Mies van der Rohe) and the authors of the granted project, who explained their research proposal, as well as the participation of Zaida Muxí (jury member).

The Grant bears the name of the pioneer in the fields of design and architecture Lilly Reich in recognition to her legacy, relegated to a second term, if not non-existent- in the narrative and memory of the history of architecture and aims to support the study, dissemination and visibilisation of contributions to architecture that have been unduly relegated or forgotten, made by professionals who have suffered discrimination because of their personal conditions.
Last September the admission period for proposals for this second edition closed with the satisfaction of having receied 17 research projects from Germany, Chile, Mexico, The Netherlands, Argentina, Italy and Spain. A successful amount that doubles the number of proposals received in the first edition.
