The Eindhoven School
the exhibition The Eindhoven School: a forgotten avant-garde offers a contemporary reflection on the position and impact of the Eindhoven School in and on Dutch architectural culture.
The Eindhoven School: a forgotten avant-garde was researched and curated by Sergio M. Figueiredo and a group of students from TU Eindhoven under the banner of the fledgling research program Curatorial Research Collective (CRC).
