September 8th Solar Futures by Marjan van Aubel was launched at Het Nieuwe Instituut in Rotterdam. This publication explores the past, present and future of solar energy, beautifully designed by Studio Joost Grootens. 

Matylda Krzykowski, who contributed texts for the book was moderator of the event and author Marjan van Aubel gave a presentation of the book about the design and content. A panel discussion has been held with the interviewees. 

This book event kicked off The Solar Biennale, an initiative by solar designers Marjan van Aubel and Pauline van Dongen. Counterbalancing the prevailing technological and economic viewpoints on solar energy. For seven weeks, the biennale focusses on the human angle: a solar-powered world goes beyond scientific research and uniform solar panels, after all.
