| Open Events The BIArch’s Open Events encompass Open Lectures, Dialogues and other events open to the public. As a complementary extension of the MBIArch, the Institute’s Open Events program transcends the traditional boundaries that separate architecture schools from professional practices and wider communities of interest, keeping with BIArch’s strong international focus and spirit of active engagement in terms of both theory and practice. | |
| Open Lectures The Barcelona Institute of Architecture’s public program is fundamentally structured around the Open Lecture series. The inaugural Fall 2009 cycle featured three young architects representing the Americas, Asia and Europe: Chilean architect Smiljan Radic, Yoshiharu Tsukamoto of Tokyo-based Atelier Bow Wow, and Toni Gironès, head of Architectural Studies at the Universitat Rovira i Virgili in Reus and member of the BIArch Board of Directors.

| Dialogues In order to open up fields of inquiry that complement the Institute’s academic concerns, the BIArch Dialogues provide an occasion for shared reflection and discussion between architectural scholars and professionals. In 2009, "Energy", directed by Agustí Obiol and "Reviewing Architectural Knowledge Formats", directed by Jorge García de la Cámara, explored the crucial themes of sustainability and the generation and dissemination of architectural knowledge.
