For those who do not know, the Assemble group, was awarded with the last Turner Prize of the arts, in December, the most prestigious art prize in the UK, worth £ 40,000.
Whenever happens more often, the response of the collective of architects is permeating everything and even major art prizes in the world. Yesterday the Turner Prize jury consolidated, a path which can also be seen in the results of Europan-Spain 13. The jury brandished the following afirmación.-
"In an age in which everything can be art why not consider itself a complex of social housing?".
The event will feature a presentation by Alice Edgerley, Assemble team member. The group, composed of 18 members, began working in 2010, with a methodology that seeks to address the traditional disconnect between the public and the process by which the places are transformed. Assemble advocates a collaborative way of working and interdependent that actively seeks to involve the public as well as participating as a partner in carrying out the work in progress. In 2015 they were awarded the Turner Prize for his project Granby Four Streets.
