ABOUT US
The Institute of Architects of Brazil (IAB) brings together architects and urban planners reflecting on practices and professional activity in defense of the right to the city, the project as an instrument of dialogue and the construction of democratic cities. Since its foundation in 1921, the IAB has sought to promote professional practice as a means of tackling socio-spatial inequalities in Brazil.
The IAB department in São Paulo (IAB-SP), founded in 1943, represents São Paulo’s professionals before the public authorities in instances of social participation, in addition to acting as a platform for discussions and debates on the most diverse themes related to the dissemination of architectural culture and urban planning. Over more than 75 years, IAB-SP has been conducting lectures, debates, seminars, courses, contests, exhibitions, showing films, festivals, awards, in addition to organizing the International Architecture Biennale of São Paulo.
Since its first edition in 1973, the International Architecture Biennale of São Paulo – one of the most significant activities of the IAB-SP – have sought to review, discuss, explore and make accessible to various audiences questions about the occupation of the territory and our society. Being an important cultural, social and political manifestation, Brazilian architecture finds in the Biennales its main instance of debate and critical development.
