Two-day trip to Liege

Archipel’s very first architecture trip in Wallonia went to Liège. That was in 1981. (Post)modernism had come of age there in the extensive oeuvre of Charles Vandenhove and architects such as André Jacqmain, Claude Strebelle, Jacques Gillet and Charles Dumont. More than 40 years later, we return to look at the works of the time in a new light. Which buildings survived? How do these buildings relate to our contemporary perception? What qualities remain standing? And how do new projects relate to the work of the past? A journey through time and discourse in and around Liège.
