Énergies Désespoirs, Un monde à réparer

Énergies Désespoirs, Un monde à réparer is the catalog of the eponymous exhibition initiated and designed by Encore Heureux Architectes and the Lyon Urban School, installed at the CENTQUATRE in Paris from May 29 to August 1, 2021. The exhibition explores two opposing sides of our contemporary planet: the crisis of the Earth’s habitability on the one hand, and possible initiatives at different scales on the other. The book includes a text by José-Manuel Gonçalvès, a preface by Jean-Christophe Bailly, an interview with the curatorial team and a set of 120 large-format paintings by the artist Bonnefrite. It also includes the answers of fifteen personalities to the question “What is your despair? What is your energy?” and the republication of five articles from the daily online newspaper AOC.
