"Architecture as propaganda: the exhibition of power in the totalitarian regimes of the twentieth century" is the title of a new project proposed by the Pro Torviscosa association in collaboration with ATRIUM and the ISIS Bassa Friulana schools and financed by the Friuli Venezia Giulia Region.
The objective of the project is to allow students from Lower Friuli to learn about ATRIUM's built heritage in other towns and cities. ATRIUM provides the students with its experience and materials so that they may draw inspiration for new creations such as guided visits, brochures and videos.
On the 13th and 14th of June, ATRIUM’s annual General Assembly took place in Ștei, Romania. The programme of the first day not only included workshops about interpreting dissonance, European projects and the ATRIUM Digital Catalogue, but also a networking café and a guided tour of Ștei. During the official meetings of the XXI and the XXII General Assemblies on the second day, a new Board of Governors and a new Scientific Committee were appointed. Additionally, three new members of ATRIUM were approved. We would like to thank all the attending members of ATRIUM and of course our host, the Municipality of Ștei, for two wonderful and successful days!
Article on the General Assembly [in Romanian language]
We are very happy to announce that three new members have been approved during this year’s General Assembly! We would like to express our warmest welcome to the Municipality of Leros (Greece), the Technical University of Crete (Greece) and the Municipality of Dimitrovgrad (Serbia). These new members make a great contribution to the Route, both for the significant architectural heritage of which they are ambassadors, and for the expansion of the ATRIUM Route to two new European Countries in which it was not yet present.
ATRIUM gained a new "Friend of the Route": AEP61-74 Association of Portuguese Political Exiles.
