Generally, we know games to be entertaining and challenging, but in truth they can also carry restrictive or stigmatising messages. Playing Architecture is curated by Mélanie van der Hoorn, a cultural anthropologist, and designed by Dafne Wiegers (AHH), architect. The exhibition invites you to play, wonder and critically reflect on the nature and role of architecture games, with a wide array of Amsterdam-related examples.

The exhibition will be on display at Arcam from December 10 until May 28, 2023.

Breda Game City will highlight the role of games and the games industry in the nexus of the entire creative industry when it comes to fast-growing, impactful trends.

During this edition we shed some light on terms as the Metaverse, Artificial intelligence (AI) and Immersive Content and we learn about the crucial role the games industry holds.
