Description of project by Nicolas Dorval-Bory, Guillaume Ramillien
Three years after its first edition, curated by Djamel Klouche, the École Nationale Supériere d'Architecture de Versailles is organising the second edition of the exhibition for the Biennale d'Architecture et de Paysage d'Île-de-France. The exhibition Visible invisible, curated by Nicolas Dorval-Bory and Guillaume Ramillien, is open from 5/14 to 7/13 and free to the public.
The exhibition aims to highlight a new generation of architects, artists and engineers who directly consider material (stone, wood, earth...) and energy resources (sun, water, thermodynamics...), which are the visible and invisible materials of the exhibition, to develop projects.
Visible Invisible is structured in three stages:
1 - A Monumenta, which inventories the material and energy resources of the Region.
2 - An exhibition of the new practices of more than 40 local and international architects.
