Accattone: Habiter le trouble at ENSA Versailles
The White Week at the National School of Architecture of Versailles is an intensive week held once a year for first year master students.This year it takes place from Monday January 30th to Friday February 3rd 2023. It is organized by the team of the journal Accattone (Sophie Dars, Carlo Menon, Galaad Van Daele) on the initiative of Construire les mondes des coexistences (Djamel Klouche, Gaëtan Brunet, Raphaëlle Hondelatte, Jean Patrice Calori, Magali Paris).The objective of the week is to provide students with a framework for reflection and expression on the crises that affect architecture, its teaching and its practice. The workshop is structured around three thematic roundtables with external guests. The first round table, "Dear Grandparents", looks at some past architectural practices that could address our contemporary issues. The second, "Dear Schools", addresses the present of students, namely the school, its teachings, values and grey areas. The third, "dear future architects", concerns the future of students and the dilemmas of architecture as a profession.
