Along with the Lago Algo cultural space, which will present its proposal a day later, this triple venue shows the most outstanding projects and initiatives in architecture and urban planning in recent years under the motto Living on the margins, while at the same time claiming the social work of these disciplines and their interrelation with other transversal ones such as art, design, technology, social entrepreneurship or cultural management
Tomorrow, Friday, September 23, the exhibition project for the XII Ibero-American Architecture and Urbanism Biennial (BIAU) will be presented at its third venue: the Lago Algo cultural space. Together with the exhibitions of the Colegio de San Ildefonso and the Cultural Center of Spain, the latter exhibition completes the curatorial project that covers the most outstanding projects and initiatives in architecture and urban planning in recent years and claims approaches to habitats and their inhabitants from other transversal disciplines.
Until September 25, an extensive program spread across different cultural venues in Mexico City is meeting to reflect on a more sustainable urban future under the slogan "Living on the margins."
