Listening, thinking space and ethnography with Ferdinando Fava
© LAA
Following Ferdinando Fava’s untimely death on August 14, 2025, and on the occasion of the posthumous publication of the collective book he was preparing, “Que nous fait l’espace? L’anthropologue et le spatial turn” (Éditions Boa), the Laboratoire architecture anthropologie (Laa-Lavue) dedicates to him a day of exchanges around two themes that were very dear to him: space and the world of relationships. He approached them both from the point of view of their urban roots and for what they do to anthropology.
The day will be built around two round-table discussions, with open floor discussions on these themes. A large table will welcome friends, colleagues, readers and students.
Registration is free, but required to organize lunch.
