Congrès Internationaux d'Architecture Moderne  

Definition

  • The Congrès Internationaux d'Architecture Moderne (International Congresses of Modern Architecture, or CIAM) was an association of avant-garde architects founded in 1928 to advance an international modern architecture and urbanism. The congresses, attended by European delegates and, to a limited degree, by delegates from North and South America, met eleven times from the 1928 organizational meeting at La Sarraz, Switzerland, until CIAM disbanded at Otterlo, the Netherlands, in 1959.
