Aarhus Architecture Festival invites to the Aarhus 2017 European Capital of Culture conference ARCHITECTURE AS CHARACTER that rethinks architecture and the role of the architect as a cultural character. How does architecture express cultural and societal values? How does architecture create cultural identity locally, regionally, nationally and globally? The conference presents a series of interdisciplinary and international meetings, lectures and talks in Aarhus in-between practitioners, curators, artists, researchers and decision-makers.
