Architecture enthusiasts have a unique opportunity to explore the field through a comprehensive weekend event at the European School of Image (EESI) in Angoulême. The Archi 16 association is organizing multiple workshops and exhibitions as part of the national architecture days celebration.
The event showcases a diverse array of architectural materials and displays throughout the weekend. Visitors can appreciate architect exhibitions, student works, and photography collections that provide insights into both contemporary and traditional architectural practices. The comprehensive presentation includes detailed models, extensive photographic documentation, and numerous explanatory materials designed to educate and inspire attendees.
Archi 16, the professional association representing architects in the Charente region, has partnered with two significant organizations for this event. The collaboration includes the CAUE (Council of Architecture, Urban Planning and Environment) and the European School of Image, creating a comprehensive educational experience during the national architecture days festivities.
"This is the first time we're offering so much," stated Etienne Boulet, co-president of Archi 16, highlighting the expanded scope and ambition of this year's programming. The event represents a significant effort to make architecture more accessible to the general public while showcasing the work of local professionals and students.
The weekend program serves as an excellent introduction to both architecture as a discipline and the European School of Image as an institution. Attendees can explore the school's facilities while gaining a deeper understanding of architectural education and practice through the carefully curated exhibitions and interactive workshop sessions.
