Featuring a range of architects who have just completed cultural building projects, the conference will explore how the role of the institution is changing.

It will question the extent to which cultural buildings should be public spaces, and whether museums and galleries have a function beyond exhibition.

Shigeru Ban, who won the Pritzker Prize in 2014, will discuss a range of his projects for cultural institutions

Shigeru Ban, who won the Pritzker Prize in 2014, will discuss projects ranging from La Seine Musicale in France to the Mount Fuji World Heritage Centre in Japan.

Ellen van Loon will talk about OMA's cultural buildings, including the new BLOX architecture centre in Copenhagen, while Jamie Fobert will describe his design for Tate St Ives, among others.
