Summary:
«Je voudrais passionnément que Paris possède un centre culturel [...] qui soit à la fois un musée et un centre de création où les arts plastiques voisineraient avec la musique, le cinéma, les livres, la recherche audiovisuelle. [...] Tout cela coûte cher [...] Mais [...] si l'objectif est atteint, ce sera une réussite sans précédent.» Lorsque Georges Pompidou livre ces mots au Monde en 1972, sa décision est prise depuis 1969. Et malgré les années de vives polémiques qui s'ensuivent - sur sa nécessité même, sur le lieu choisi, le plateau Beaubourg, sur son architecture aux allure de «raffinerie» , le Centre Pompidou ouvre ses portes le 1er février 1977. Aussitôt, le public s'y presse un masse, découvrant sa désormais incontournable BPI, son CCI, Ircam et ses recherches acoustiques la richesse clé son musée, le Mnam et ses mémorables expositions, un calendrier quotidien de spectacles, de colloques de conférences, de rencontres. C'est à l'histoire de ces trente «années Beaubourg» que nous convie Germain Viatte, trente ans d'une activité culturelle sans précédent, dont le public ne saurait aujourd'hui se passer.

Summary:
Rich in images, "Asking Questions" offers a kaleidoscopic perspective of ten years of architectural design at the Gerrit Rietveld Academy. The Gerrit Rietveld Academy works to a unique educational concept, as its students are encouraged to approach assignments in their own way. This is why its graduates cannot be called straightforward interior designers. Asking Questions paints a picture of the academy's conceptual approach to architecture through a historical perspective of its education, student statistics, an inventory of outstanding study assignments and an overview of work done by graduates once they had left the academy. Since then, they have been active in all branches of the design industry.
