Agwa: Lecture at the Lisbon Triennial

AgwA will participate on 13 October 2021, together with BAST, in the Common Field conference cycle organised by the Lisbon Architecture Triennale in 2020 - 2022.

This event is focused on building -both its material definition and representation- as a fundamental stage of a learning process towards architecture understood as a common field of knowledge. The guests are the Brussels-based practice AgwA and the Toulouse based practice BAST -Bureau Architectures Sans Titre-, which will build a shared presentation introducing sites, procedures, worker choreographies and their specific attitude on the built world, through a series of renovations of different scale and character in Belgium and France.

In English, this conference combines a presentation from both guests and a conversation moderated by the curators of Common Field - Diana Menino and Felipe De Ferrari.

In architecture, a conference is one of the primordial ways of sharing knowledge. The conference cycles organised by Lisbon Architecture Triennale allows precisely that space, establishing a close proximity and dialogue between public and speakers.

Common Field is the new cycle that takes place between 2020-22, curated by Diana Menino and Felipe De Ferrari. This new approach makes architecture an imperative for change, in its condition of approaching the world and appropriation of reality. As a co-production with CCB, international guests gather around this field to analyze and debate the strategic attitude of architecture towards our days, among communities, people and different environments.
