The progress made by the Be-Smart consortium in Building Integrated Photovoltaics (EPoG technologies) now makes possible to combine aesthetics, performance and efficiency. In the world premier «Watt is Art» exhibition, the industrial objects you discover have their place in a gallery, since their aesthetic astonishes, questions and redefines the role and possibilities of architecture.
A world premiere exhibition of boldly-artistic multifunctional solar panels, both online and onsite. Art-Science Exhibition at Lausanne’s EPFL Pavilion From March 26th to April 25th, 2021
Watt is Art
26.03-25.04.2021
Discover how photovoltaic technologies are overcoming aesthetic and construction constraints to become real architectural assets. And it is precisely the aesthetic value of the technology that allows us today to show this industrial object in a committed and lucid artistic exhibition.
An immersive visit into the 3D space capture exhibition
Anyone can visit the Watt is Art Exhibition virtually at anytime thanks to 360° space capture by swiss photographer Olivier Gisiger.
