Date: April 4th to 6th, 2019
Venue: School of Architecture. ETSA UPV
This year our motto and manifesto is “FRACTURES”.
ETSA – TOPIA is an architecture festival that takes place from April 4th to 6th at the Escuela Técnica Superior de Arquitectura de València, which deals with topics that are not only related to architecture, but also with social, artistic, design, photography, and much more. During the festival there are workshops, conferences, concerts, performances and other activities framed in the theme. In this V edition we have decided to open the event to other universities offering the opportunity to participate actively, giving the possibility to young talents to expose their work or research.
ETSA-TOPIA 2019: “FRACTURES”.
Find those cracks in the system and enter through them to improve it.
You said you wanted to be an architect to create a better world, from ETSA-TOPIA we remember all those thoughts. This year we want to look from a social perspective, what can architecture do to help?
We seek to give importance to that architecture focused on daily problems, which is based on different perspectives: sustainability, gender perspective, education… or even politics.
Let’s put social responsibility on the table, let’s talk, let’s provide solutions.
Those fractures are there if you are willing to look for them.
Pecha kucha
This year ETSA-TOPIA aims to give visibility to research carried out by students or recent graduates through a concise and direct presentation format: pecha kucha.
A pecha kuchais a type of oral presentation complemented by a visual support (images) in which there are 20 slides to be explained in 20 seconds each. In total, the duration of the presentation is 6 minutes and 40 seconds.
The presentation will be followed by a few minutes of discussion during which the speaker will be asked questions and the audience will be encouraged to participate.
