On Tuesday, January 26, Arhitext Design Foundation launched the second edition of East Centric Architecture Triennale, which will take place in Bucharest between September 15 and October 9, 2016. The theme of this year's edition is Drifting. The Triennale features three modules – Drifting Architecture (thematic projects exhibition), Critical Discourses (essay contest), and Arhitext East Centric Awards (projects contest) – and a special project named Agora Experiments (a workshop based on an international idea contest and multimedia exhibition).
Drifting Architecture will showcase the transformation process of contemporary architecture and, along with it, of architectural critique in the region, by means of a thematic exhibition and a critical discussion, that will bring together professionals from the region and from all over the world. The exhibition will highlight a selection of consistent architecture projects relevant both for the regional historical context, as well as for the social and cultural environment. The participants must submit their works following the schedule and rules of the open call launched on January 26. All submitted projects must have been completed in the period 2013–2016.
