13th International Architecture Exhibition
Common Ground
29th August > 25th November 2012
On 27th December 2011, David Chipperfield was appointed Director of the Architecture Sector with the specific responsibility of curating the 13th International Architecture Exhibition, which will be held in Venice, at the venues of Giardini and Arsenale, from August 29th to November 25th, 2012 (preview on August 27th-28th).
David Chipperfield says about his project that “Participants will be encouraged through a declaration of affinities to make connections with other authors and other works. These dialogues and collaborations may involve a common proposal or a dialogue between projects even as a dialogue of provocation. In this way we wish to demonstrate the existence of a rich culture of architectural practice and research, stimulated by the work of other disciplines but defined by shared enthusiasms and concerns at a time when the singular works of architects are celebrated but the role of the profession and our place within society is continuously challenged.”
