The exhibition Beta_Enough is enough will be opened on Thursday, May 13, at 7 pm in the Collective of Architects (Drinčićeva 20). This program is dedicated to the Biennale of Architecture in Timisoara - Beta 2020, which occurred last year. Beta is a Euro regional platform for dialogue and cooperation. Its main goal is to improve the way we build our cities. 

The 3rd edition is dealing with the topic of responsibility for the present and future environment. This is an attempt to become a platform that articulates the attitude towards the increasing pressures. Environmental, social, cultural, economic… The pressures construction of facilities generates.  

The authors of this exhibition are the architect Anca Cioarec, Brindusa Tudor, and Ilka Ruby.

Anca Cioarec and Brindusa Tudor - Stardust Architects - are exploring poetic experiences in the design process. They come out of a desire to slow down the automation of the use of objects and space. They suggest moments of peace, presence and reflection.

The exhibition presents dozens of projects (local and international). These works created architects who did not have enough to wait for solutions "from the top-down". Creators who found their own way of using what already exists. Their art highlights the ways in which our planet can be treated with respect and responsibility. It is oriented towards the environment, the economy, and society as a whole. The exhibition will be led by guests from Romania - Beta team.

"We believe that it is necessary to look at what we already have, to observe the inventory of local resources, the reuse of abandoned and unused buildings, in order to find methods that will make them alive, and demolition to be our last option. To take care of, maintain, and repair broken. We should use the existing ones again, repair the materials, remember our crafts and try to adapt them to both the design and the construction process. And if we have to rebuild, from the beginning, we appreciate experimenting and researching new materials that are good for the environment, that is, biodegradable, renewable materials " - said architects Ilka Rubi, Anca Cioarec, and Brindusa Tudor.
