GLOBAL AWARD
FOR SUSTAINABLE ARCHITECTURE 2008-2009-2010
|
Fifteen architects that have been meeting because of the Global Award since 2007, rising to twenty in 2010: a college of architects from every continent has been formed. Bolstered by the same ideal grounded in continents, cultures and societies that are sometimes at opposite ends of the spectrum, they draw attention to the extent and the complexity of the ecological challenge we are faced with through the diversity and beauty of their architecture.
A travelling exhibition devoted to the 15 first winners of the Global Award was organised by the Cité de l’Architecture and is touring the whole world, following its inauguration in Copenhagen during the Climate Summit in November 2009.
The French version will be presented in Paris from 12th May to 5th September 2010: Stefan Behnisch (Germany), Balkrishna Doshi (India), Françoise-Hélène Jourda (France), Hermann Kaufmann (Autriche), Wang Shu (China), Fabrizio Caròla (Italy/Mali), Alejandro Aravena (Elemental - Chili), Andrew Freear (Rural Studio – United States), Philippe Samyn (Belgium), Carin Smuts (South Africa), Patrick Bouchain (France), Thomas Herzog (Germany), Bijoy Jain (India), Diébédo Francis Kéré (Germany/Burkina Faso), Sami Rintala (Norway).
