Jacques Ferrier

In 2016 and 2017, several monographic exhibitions dedicated to his work were organized: ‘Impressionismus at the Architektur Galerie Berlin, ‘Non oppressive Design’ at the DOKK1 in Aarhus, ‘A vision for the Sensual City’ in Manila, Singapore, Jakarta and Kuala Lumpur.

The urban culture developed in the 20th century is steadily expanding and over half the world’s population now lives in cities, a proportion that is continually increasing and causing functional problems on an unprecedented scale.

On the contrary, as technology is perfected it becomes invisible, it disappears from view and allows people to live in cities that can be construed as built landscapes, designed to offer a full sensorial experience.

The city becomes an environment that incorporates a high level of sustainable development as well as a setting where people can take pleasure in living together and relate to its history as the founding source of civilization.

Internationally recognized personalities - architects, urban planners, scientists, philosophers, sociologists and artists - crossed their eyes on the theme of sensuality linked to architecture and city planning.
