DESCRIPTION:Sophie Dars\, Roxane Le Grelle\nLecture and aperitif \nSophi
 e Dars (Accattone magazine)\n\nYou are invited to join us in the Archizoom
  gallery for the opening of the exhibition High Tech Low Tech\, which tak
 es place from the 11th of March to the 13th of May 2024. For this event\, 
 we welcome Sophie Dars\, in charge of the curation\, to give an opening le
 cture followed by an aperitif.\n\nThe exhibition stems from the considerat
 ion that any building designed according to the currently dominant archite
 ctural principles is ‘zombie’\, non-living\, as it is based on technol
 ogies and energies that will soon be exhausted or too costly for the plan
 et. This zombie perspective invites us to reconsider the way we approach a
 rchitecture\, to ‘de-project’ it by reappropriating the tools of thin
 king and doing. \n\nBy taking technology out of the ghost of innovation\,
  the exhibition looks at techniques that emerge from hybrid\, localised\, 
 living cultures\, based on knowledge and skills – between engineer and b
 ricoleur – that are transferred and contaminated across disciplines and 
 social groups. Neither high-tech nor low-tech\, these experiments represen
 t a sample of minoritarian but fertile approaches that can help us to reth
 ink our relationship with the built environment and architectural practice

 ollaboration of Solène Hoffmann
