People meet in architecture

29.08.2010 - 21.11.2010

Venice (Arsenale and Giardini), Italy

The general idea is to help people relate to architecture, help architecture relate to people and help people relate to themselves.

"Can architecture clarify new values and a new lifestyles of the XXI century? This exhibition - explained Kazuyo Sejima - will be an experience of architecture possibilities, to understand how architecture expresses new ways of living, about an architecture created by different values and approaches. I would be very happy if we could feel where our society will go through this exhibition".

There will be independent spaces for each architect or each theme, which means that the participants will be their own curators. In this way contributors will design their own space and make presentations that consider the experience of the visitor both physically and conceptually. It will be a series of spaces rather than a series of objects.

Participants will include artists and engineers, and not only architects because architecture is a product of the whole society. Like society, some parts of the exhibition will be made through the collaboration of artists and architects, or architects and visitors.
