A territory contested between architectural vision and geopolitical strategy.

During the 1960 Olympics, the Olympic Village became a space where athletes from all over the world lived together, a true temporary experiment in “geopolitical cohabitation”.

The focus uses archive materials, drawings and images to recount an experiment in cultural diplomacy through sport and temporary living.

In collaboration with the Central State Archives.
