A new policy to support art, architecture and the built environment is to be developed by Arts Council England following a comprehensive review of Architecture Week. The policy will establish the context for the Arts Council's investment in the built environment and will provide a framework for developing future initiatives to replace the annual Architecture Week that ran 1997 to 2007.
The move follows Leeds Metropolitan University's independent review of Architecture Week and a period of consultation with the built environment sector. Partners on the week with Arts Council England were RIBA and the Architecture Centre Network, who concluded that the role of artists and architects and their projects have changed radically in the last ten years, and the number and range of organisations engaging the public with architecture have evolved to such a degree, that a new approach was needed.
