Open Program 2025
The theme of the 2025 edition was Atmospheres. The series of three lectures—each preceded by video art creations from the Forest Matter VII cycle—was presented by filmmakers and visual artists Ila Bêka and Louise Lemoine, who work at the intersection of visual arts, non-fiction cinema, and architecture; Catalan architect Xevi Bayona, artistic director of the Lluèrnia Festival of Fire and Light in Olot, and founder of Bayona Studio—a space dedicated to experimentation and interdisciplinary research in architecture, urbanism, art, landscape, and ephemeral and light installations; and Japanese architect Kazuyo Sejima, winner of more than fifteen awards and recognitions, including the 2010 Pritzker Prize, which she shared with her partner at SANAA, architect Ryue Nishizawa.
