Summary:
Les constructions paysagères du land art et les pratiques artistiques in situ, les réalisations d'architecture fluide et évolutive, les créations contemporaines dans le domaine du design sensoriel proposent, à partir d'une exploration de différents systèmes dynamiques, de nouvelles manières de fréquenter ou d'occuper un site, d'habiter ou de vivre l'espace. Elles font de la pratique du site et de l'investissement de l'espace architectural une expérience du lieu. Patrick Barrès est maître de conférences en Arts plastiques à l'université de Toulouse II Le Mirail et artiste plasticien. Auteur de nombreux articles dans des revues spécialisées, consacrés aux pratiques du site (installation, paysage, architecture, scénographie), aux relations entre cinéma et arts plastiques, aux relations entre art et science, il a récemment publié Le cinéma d'animation, un cinéma d'expériences plastiques. En préparation : un essai sur les paysages de l'errance.

The aim is to investigate the current landscape of Architecture in Europe, after the 2008 economical crisis, through interviews, talks, round tables and workshops. The protagonists of this research are 30 young architecture offices from around Europe.
