Talk Talk Talk

During the final days of Triennale 2019, a three-day programme of architecture conferences focus on the themes of four main exhibitions conceived for The Poetics of Reason. This series aims to create an energetic and specialized composition of conversations, bringing together architects, curators and scholars from the international scene. In each four sessions, the audience will attend a theoretical approach, a presentation, which ends with a confrontation of ideas configured as a Drink & Talk, where public and speakers  exchange their experience share their thoughts, provoke their positioning and broaden the debate on the proposed topics.
