critic|all press

critic|all press is the publishing and conference brand associated with the Critic|all International Conference on Architectural Design and Criticism. The conference is described as both a place and an event: a place because it serves as an academic meeting point for researchers, teachers and architects interested in architectural culture and criticism, and an event because the forum generates knowledge during its sessions, where the intellectual and scientific impulse is said to be higher than the sum of the individual contributions. Its aim is to set a preliminary platform to launch an item, call a theme, and forge early reflections that allow the settling and binding of the topics organizing the sessions of each edition. Although its environment is linked to the activities of the Architectural Design Department of Madrid School of Architecture ETSAM-UPM, the conference has a clear international vocation. Since 2020 it began a new phase in which each edition is organized in collaboration with a partner university. The sixth edition of the conference will be co-organized with the Department of Architecture and Design of the Politecnico di Torino. The brand operates primarily in the academic and architectural criticism sphere, publishing conference proceedings and related material under the critic|all press imprint. Its activities are centered in Madrid, Spain, with an expanding international network through partner universities. The exact founding year, founders, and corporate ownership are not specified in the available evidence.

The Critic|all Conference emerged from the Architectural Design Department of Madrid School of Architecture ETSAM-UPM as an academic meeting point for researchers, teachers and architects interested in architectural culture and criticism. It was conceived as both a place and an event: a place for academic exchange and an event that generates fruitful knowledge through its forum, where the intellectual and scientific impulse is described as higher than the sum of the valuable individual contributions. The conference aims to set a preliminary platform to launch an item, to call a theme, and to forge early reflections which allow the settling and binding of the topics that organize the sessions of each edition. Although its environment is linked to ETSAM-UPM, it has a clear international vocation. Since 2020, the conference started a new phase in which each edition is organized in collaboration with a partner university. The sixth edition will be co-organized with the Department of Architecture and Design of the Politecnico di Torino. The publishing arm, critic|all press, produces conference proceedings and related academic material. The exact founding date and founders are not specified in the available evidence. The brand remains active in the academic architectural criticism field.
