This dialogue is unconventional within the field of Peruvian architecture, as those dedicated to theory and criticism do not always engage in design practice. Furthermore, these two groups are often distant in their ways of thinking and acting; this lack of communication prevents greater collaboration and the potential benefits that could arise from uniting these two essential disciplines.
The format will feature four architects and four architectural critics face-to-face, "exploring the links between architectural design and criticism." This event will feature the participation of Fredy Massad, author of the book Crítica de Choque, who joins us thanks to the collaboration of the Quito Architecture Biennial.
