Compagnie architecture

Salut la compagnie !

For its first exhibition, Compagnie architecture will take over La Galerie d’Architecture’s exhibition space to present and bring to life the tools of its trade : 1/50-scale models, images, print materials, etc. The exhibition will revolve round the presence of the architects, guided visits, and workshops-round tables.

Every Thursday evening, Compagnie will invite the exhibition’s visitors to share a series of cultural events, organized in conjunction with partners and associates, and which will revisit in words, images, and dance themes that are important to the firm : transmission, construction sites as places for culture, rehabilitation, and cultural urbanism. The exhibition will also celebrate the publication of Des Mots à la main (Words in Hand), a book inspired by the firm’s work, with texts by Emmanuelle Borne and drawings by Simon Roussin.
