SUMMARY:Seminar ‘Maintaining. Architecture and maintenance\, what we care about
DESCRIPTION:First session \n“Material fragility and maintenance under constraints: \nbuilding to the test of reality”\, \na look back at some projects by the SCAU agency \n\nThe architectural agency SCAU and Jérôme Denis organize a new seminar entitled ‘Maintaining. Architecture and maintenance\, what we care about’. \nThe history of architecture is closely linked to designo\, the creative concept that establishes a relationship with time and materials\, driven by intention and upheld in the project. Maintenance\, a mundane\, endlessly repetitive activity\, is at first glance the antithesis of designo. Here nothing is designed\, nothing is created. Deployed in a present it contributes to thickening\, maintenance cultivates the continuity of things that already exist by dealing with the ongoing transformations of matter. However\, at a time of climate and environmental crisis\, it seems very likely that those who practice this art of making things last have a lot to teach architects. Because they place fragility and wear at the heart of an ecology of attention that breaks with the promises of modernity\, because they deploy forms of material diplomacy that do away with human pretensions to mastery and control\, because they distribute responsibilities beyond the figure of the inventor\, maintenance activities draw lines of flight that can help rethink architecture by considering what in it escapes the temptation of the singular creative act. \nIt is through this breach\, which opens up to the concerns and expertise of maintenance\, and in a context of profound change in the act of building\, that we propose to explore and question the relationship that architecture cultivates with these common things that hold us and inhabit us\, betting on a partnership approach\, multidisciplinary and open to all parties involved. \n\nFirst session: “Material fragility and maintenance under constraints: building to the test of reality”\, a look back at some projects by the SCAU agency. \nDate: Friday March 28\, 2025\, 10-12am.\nVenue: SCAU\, 35 rue Tournefort\, 75005 Paris. \nParticipation is free but registration is required. Please register here. \nThe seminar will be held in French. \n\nPhoto credit: Wim Wenders\, Perfect days\, 2023\, Master Mind.
