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.
