Art & Architecture is an independent association providing a
public forum for cross-discipline debate. Celebrating twenty-eight
years, Art & Architecture (A&A) has been influencing the
role of art, design and building, ever since its inception at a
landmark ICA conference in 1982. To date A&A has presented over
200 lectures and numerous events, a considerable achievement for a
voluntary group.
Applying the principle of art practice at the forefront of
innovation, A&A promotes the collective approach as the vehicle
to a better public domain. Rallying and empowering practitioners it
advocates joined-up thinking between architects, engineers,
planners, artists and academics to meet new challenges, such as a
low carbon society and "restorative" ecological design.
In order to achieve the desired levels of quality and influence the
future of the built environment the aim is to stimulate a lively
and open debate through its open talks programme.
A&A receives the support of a distinguished list of patrons,
including Will Alsop, Alan Baxter, Charles Jencks.
