Call for papers - Colloquium "What architecture does to ecology
[EXTENSION]
The ATE laboratory is calling for papers for the conference What architecture does to ecology to be held atENSA Normandie 20 and 21 April 2023.
The challenges of combating global warming, the depletion of resources and the preservation of biodiversity are now increasingly determining the design and construction of buildings and urban spaces. The aim of this conference is to examine the possible feedback effects: if ecology undoubtedly changes architecture, to what extent does architecture also change ecology?
The call for papers has been extended until 30 September 2022.
The call for papers is available in English and French.
Papers may be submitted and may be given in either French or English.

Publication - Architecture and the transmission of the arts

The Normandy National School of Architecture and the ATE laboratory are publishing a book entitled Architecture et transmission des arts(Architecture and the Transmission of the Arts). This collective work, edited by Dominique Dehais, is the result of a series of study days held in May 2017 atENSA Normandie.

Summary of the book

Architectural education is composed of disciplines that contribute to the scientific, technical and sensitive scope of urban and landscape architectural design. The transmission of the arts, whether plastic, visual, theoretical or practical, is part of the educational corpus of architectural education. In its process, the Bologna Directive (EU 1999) includes the arts in the list of competences for the practice of architecture.

The contributions gathered in this book are a follow-up to the May 2017 study days at the École nationale d'architecture de Normandie. Through the singularity of their authors' didactic paths, they draw up a panorama of the issues and attitudes that give shape to the experience of art in order to understand and act in the creation of the artefacts that produce the reality of our living environments. Environments in which architecture plays a determining role.
