2. OBJECTIVE OF THE COMPETITION
The Fondazione La Biennale di Venezia believes strongly in the younger generation, in its creative talents and the force of its ideas. Throughout the years this conviction has been translated into dedicated initiatives and projects. In occasion of the 11th International Venice Biennale of Architecture (Venice, September 14 – November 23) this conviction is represented by EVERYVILLE, an exceptional opportunity for University Students from around the world to be directly involved in the organisation of the Biennale. The competition calls for the preparation of an idea-project based on the theoretical-critical text written by the curator of the 11th Exhibition Aaron Betsky. However, this time the element of challenge and stimulation lies in the fact that the works selected by the prestigious Jury will become an integral part of the 11th Exhibition, presented in a dedicated section. The competition thus represents a unique opportunity and unrepeatable occasion to present your work, coupled with the satisfaction of presenting it during what is now considered to be the most important architectural exhibition in the world.
3. CONDITIONS
The single phase competition is open to students of all disciplines and from any university in the world who have not graduated at the time of 1st January 2008, as well as to graduates of any discipline that in the course of 2008 are enrolled students in post-graduate studies such as specialization, master’s degree, PhD, etc., and whose attendance may be certified.
Participants can be individuals or groups. Interdisciplinary and multicultural groups are encouraged.
