OPENING and PARTY. "SENSITIVE MATTER" QUADERNS 264

Monday 9 July, the exhibition curators have organized an open debate on the situation of Catalan architecture in the global context. Works will begin with presentations by TEd'A, Unparelld'arquitectes and DataAE. Then open a debate that seeks to transcend the proposal in the COAC and address issues such as current architectural context, the positioning of Catalan architecture, attitudes and ambitions of architecture, among others.

The debate will have three guest critics - Coke Claret, Ramon Faura and José Zabala, and be enriched by two rows of facilitators: a row of ten studies of architects on display, and one in ten architects renowned for their position in the thinking and criticism: Luis Ortega, Freddy Massad, Anna Puigjaner, Jordi Badia, Moisés Puente, Pedro Riera, Aurelio Santos, and others to confirm.

"Sensitive Matter: young Catalan architects" is a small sample format that includes 20 works by 10 young architectural firms in recent years. Includes works by Arquitectures. Bosch. Capdeferro Núria Salvadó + David Tapias DataAE; David Sebastian + Gerard Puig; Harquitectes; Emiliano López + Mónica Rivera Francisco Cifuentes Josep Bunyesc; TEd'A Arquitectes Unparelld'arquitectes. Two years ago they started this adventure in order to demonstrate a way to make existing architecture in Catalonia and reflect on the current architectural fact. Selected works, asked their architects to express them in Lisbon, La Coruna and Berlin, and finally, to close ... out in Barcelona!
