The "River Somes" exhibition is one of the events included in this year's Lisbon Architecture Triennale. It focuses in a large-scale river regeneration project that the Madrid-based firm PRÁCTICA is carrying out in the city of Cluj-Napoca, in Romania. This project consists in the redesign of the River Somes waterfronts along a 15-km section of its course through the city of Cluj. It includes a large number of bridges, squares, parks, public spaces, pedestrian paths and bike lanes, and it's scheduled for completion in mid-2023. The curators of the 2022 Lisbon Architecture Triennale, Cristina Veríssimo and Diogo Burnay, have selected the River Somes project to be features in this year's exhibition, titled "Terra", due to the international interest it is receiving, as well as for its relationship to the event's main themes.
