Exhibition - May 68 ! Architecture too

From February 12 to 29, 2024, ENSA Normandie will once again host the exhibition "Mai 68. Architecture too!" after nearly 3 years of touring throughout France.

The exhibition was curated by Caroline Maniaque (ENSA Normandie), Eléonore Marantz (Université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne) and Jean-Louis Violeau (ENSA de Nantes).

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.

A guided tour of the exhibition by Caroline Maniaque will take place on February 13, 2024 at 1pm.
A conference/round-table will be held on February 27 from 12:30 to 2pm in the Jean-Duminy amphitheater. More information HERE
