Located on Montjuic hill in Barcelona and designed by the rationalist style architect Josep Lluis Sert, the Fundació Joan Miró (Joan Miró Foundation) is a unique space imagined by Miró with a dream of bringing art to the entire world.
The construction of this museum in 1975 was a major event in Barcelona because at the time there was a lack of cultural infrastructure in the city. Now 40 years have passed and the Foundation’s spaces host the work of Joan Miró as well as temporary exhibitions of emerging artists of the 20th and 21st centuries.
In these times when we are experiencing an extraordinary situation that limits travel and the possibility of holding events together, we still want to keep alive the debate on the dissemination of architecture in the media. For this reason, this year the venue of the event moves from the inspiring Mies van der Rohe Pavilion in Barcelona to the YouTube channel of Fundació Mies van der Rohe.
The European Conference on Architecture & the Media is conceived as a place to meet and exchange experiences on the dissemination of architecture. It is addressed to journalists, cultural institutions and organisations, communication professionals, architects and architecture lovers.
The Institute for Advanced Architecture of Catalonia (IAAC) is pleased to inform you about the launch of Global Summer School 2020 (GSS20), the 13th edition of the international summer educational program focused on redesigning the future of our cities. The programme will take place online from IAAC Barcelona from June 29 through July 24.
This 2020 the Mies van der Rohe Pavilion is activated more than ever as a public platform to dissolve the boundaries between architectural research and the arts, promoting the dissemination of architecture in collaboration with an extensive and varied network of entities and people.
The 2020 program brings together and generates synergies between academia, artistic production and the architectural culture of cities and territories.
The new sense of place in education, the profession, and social interaction will be the theme of the 18th International Conference Arquitectonics: Mind, Land, and Society in Barcelona. This event is organized by the UPC Research Group (GIRAS), Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (UPC), and the Mind, Land & Society Arquitectonics Network.
The Foros lecture series at the UIC Barcelona School of Architecture, an essential annual event in the fields of architecture and urbanism, is launching a new edition, which will run from January 29 to April 29.
