Art through Architecture (AtA) is pleased to present a talk by
Sans façon, an innovative collaborative art practice between
British artist Tristan Surtee and French architect Charles Blanc.
Focused on exploring the complex relationship between people and
place, and committed to expanding the expectation of the role of
the artist in society, they have undertaken projects ranging from
temporary interventions that renew awareness and appreciation of
the idiosyncrasies of specific public spaces; to leading multidisciplinary
design teams to produce alternative design solutions; to developing
and implementing city wide strategies involving artists in the
rethinking and re-qualification of place. Sans façon sees the role
of the artist and art as a catalyst in a process of raising questions
and inviting one to look and think differently. Visit www.sansfacon.co.uk for
