Atmospheric, Filming architecture
An exhibition produced by arc en rêve in partnership with TRANSFER Global Architecture Platform and the Canadian Center for Architecture.
Halfway between an exhibition and a festival, Atmospheric explores the many ways in which video can contribute to the transmission of architecture and space.
Over the last decade, video has established itself as the documentation and experimental tool best suited to conveying the meaning and context of an architecture, a place or a space. A new generation of artists has emerged in a wide variety of locations, exploiting the possibilities offered by digital technology and the circulation of images online.
arc en rêve’s main gallery has been transformed into a screening room, offering a glimpse into this landscape of filmmakers and directors. Initially structured into 4 sessions of one month each, Atmospheric, filming architecture presents the work of 40 authors – exploring the many ways in which video can contribute to the transmission of architecture.
A selection of the TRANSFER Architecture Video Award 2019 and 2021 is part of Atmospheric, filming architecture.
The exhibition, which was due to close at the end of October, has been extended until 7 January 2024. For this fifth session of screenings, the 8 most appreciated films by the public from among the 32 presented during the exhibition will be shown in the “Best-of” session of Atmospheric.
