- It is a non-profit cultural association established by the University of Bologna in 1992 in order to organize the BOLOGNA TRIENNALE of architecture and urbanism, which was inaugurated the 29th of September 1992 by H.R.H. The Prince of Wales in the Centre San Giorgio in Poggiale. Professors and researchers from the University of Bologna as well as architects, art historians from all the European countries are members of the association. After the first edition of the BOLOGNA TRIENNALE OF ARCHITECTURE AND URBANISM, dedicated to A Vision of Europe - which displayed more than 100 projects and built works by 105 architects from 18 European countries and the United States -, the A Vision of Europe association organized the LABORATORY FOR THE EUROPEAN CITY in collaboration with several European Institutions such as the French Institute of Architecture in Paris, the Bruxelles Foundation for Architecture, the San Sebastian University, etc; The laboratory is a 3-weeks international design workshop which involves every year more than 30 young architects from different European countries who are assembled together in an European city where they elaborate projects for the urban re-birth and the re-vitalization of the urban environment (1993: Bologna; 1994: Paris; 1995: Bruxelles; 1996: Parma). In 1992-94, the A Vision of Europe association organized several exhibitions on architecture and urbanism, such as: - The Sustainable City, Bologne, March-April 1994; - Garden-City Today, Bologne, March-April 1994; - Villes d'Europe, Bologne, March-April 1994; while the following meetings and workshops were held in collaboration with other international Institutions such as Institut Francais d'Architecture (IFA) Paris, The Prince of Wales's Institute of Architecture (POWIA) London, Kommunalverband Ruhrgebiet-IBA '99 , Essen, Escuela Tecnica Superior de Arquitectura , San Sebastian, University of Miami-School of Architecture: - "Technopoles en Europe", Bologna March 1992; - "Garden-City today", Bologna, May 1992; -"Refondation de la ville", Bologna, May 1993; - "Batir la Ville EuropŽenne", Parma, June 1993; - "The Sustainable City", Viterbo, August 1993; - "Classical City-Garden City", Bologna, March 1994. - The second edition of the BOLOGNA TRIENNALE took place in March-May 1996 and focused on the theme of URBAN RENAISSANCE .
