In Vattetot-sur-mer, Madeleine's house is visited by a transient marcassin who is about to die. The elegant old lady takes him in, causing trouble in this village on the Normandy coast. Pierre, a neighbour who leads a sedentary life there, films Toto, the new arrival. His tranquillity is disrupted the day he finds Vincent who asks him, despite his aversion to travelling, to accompany him to India to the shrine of the monkey-god Hanumân. Vincent, as if haunted, leaves alone. It is during his absence that Pierre meets Joseph, a solitary peasant. Every morning, Pierre goes to his new friend's house, making day after day

Straw, hemp and reed are all bio-based materials that contribute to the energy performance of new buildings and renovations. Essential for the architecture of tomorrow, bio-based materials contribute to the ecological and social transition. Walls made of hemp-lime or straw bales, bamboo frames, reed roofing and cladding, wicker railings, etc., the exhibition brings together the 50 finalist buildings of the FIBRA Award and reveals materials made of plant fibres with great structural capacities and high thermal and hygrometric performances. As a renewable and fast-growing resource, plant fibres are a real opportunity to store the carbon that our contemporary societies are rejecting en masse.

Production: Agence MUSEO and amàco (Atelier matières à construire)

Curator of the exhibition: Dominique Gauzin-Müller.

Partners: C.A.U.E of Seine-Maritime, La Maison de l’architecture – Le forum, UnilaSalle-Beauvais, ARPE Normandy, andENSA Normandie

This exhibition invites us to revisit a field of possibilities, the fifteen years (1962/1977) that saw the renewal of education, along with that of architecture, urban planning and the professions associated with them. The refusal of heritage, or at least its evolution, the reinvention of forms and pedagogical content that followed, and finally the hypotheses that were formulated for society and architecture are the main themes that make it possible to analyse the aspiration to do architecture differently.

Exhibition curators: Caroline Maniaque (ENSA Normandie), Eléonore Marantz (Université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne) and Jean-Louis Violeau (ENSA Nantes). Set design: Auriane Bernard Guelle.
Based on the original exhibition designed and presented at the Cité de l'Architecture et du Patrimoine for the 50th anniversary of May 1968.

This event was supported by the Ministry of Culture (Bureau de la recherche architecturale, urbaine et paysagère) and the Cité de l'architecture & du patrimoine.

Teachers: Frédéric Chastanier, Joseph Altuna, Denis Couchaux, Fabrice Drain.

The S04 Virtual exhibition in the representation of architecture is devoted to an experimentation that allows the student to progressively move from a landscape survey to a real project of representation.
Sensitive representations (maps, drawings, photographs, collages, models, etc.) are used to create a graphic, plastic and literary narrative.
This year, a common site with the project workshops was chosen: the port and beach of Dieppe.
Produced by groups of six students, the books retrace the process of the semester.
The students only visited the site once before the confinement and the inventiveness, poetry and quality of their work deserved to be highlighted by this virtual exhibition.

An expert is sent to the site of a factory manufacturing medical prostheses. This factory is emitting a nauseating odour into the atmosphere, the tree that hides the forest: silene, an extremely toxic substance. A meeting with Eric Chauvier, author of the book "Somaland" in the main auditorium.

"Ensemble" brings together 64 graduates of the Normandy schools of art and architecture.

The plastic, graphic and architectural works of artists, designers or State Architectural Graduates have been selected by the independent curator Edith Doove. This is the first time that the three higher education institutions of Culture in Normandy - the Higher School of Arts & Media of Caen/Cherbourg, the Higher School of Art and Design of Le Havre/Rouen, the National Higher School of Architecture of Normandy - have joined forces to present a broad panorama of the creations of their graduates.

On the occasion of the National Architecture Days, the Entente des Anciens de Normandie proposes a feedback from former students of the École nationale supérieure d'architecture de Normandie. This round table will be held on Saturday 19 October at 3pm at the Maison de l'Architecture de Normandie - Le Forum.
The three speakers (an architect employed by a major agency, a teacher-researcher and a BIM manager in a major construction company) will present their career paths and current practices during this meeting, which will be followed by a time for discussion with the public. This is a rare opportunity to get a glimpse of the great diversity of the architectural professions and professions that are little known to the general public.

Organised by the EAN (Entente des Anciens de Normandie)
