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 68.

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.
