WAC at Venice Architecture Biennale 2018

Hello WAC Members!

The world’s biggest architectural exhibition "Venice Architecture Biennale 2018" kicks off on May 26, 2018. World Architecture Community will be in Venice during the Biennale for the press preview of the 16th International Architecture Exhibition and bring you all the fresh news from the two-day special opening.

The opening is taking place at the Arsenale and Giardini in Venice on May 24 - 25, WAC team will provide live coverage on our Instagram and Twitter to share images and info about the most interesting events, meetings, installations and pavilions.

The Venice Architecture Biennale 2018 is curated by Irish architects Yvonne Farrell and Shelley McNamara, co-founders of Grafton Architects, their reconstructive theme "Freespace" will reinterrogate "generosity of spirit" and celebrate "architecture's capacity to find additional and unexpected generosity in each project - even within the most private, defensive, exclusive or commercially restricted conditions."

We will share with you the best contributions and the most speculative pavilions addressing to the Yvonne Farrell and Shelley McNamara’s transformative theme.

If you are in town, we encourage you to use this hashtag #WACBiennale on twitter and instagram to help us select what is relevant. If relevant to the community, your twit will also be retweeted to our followers on @WACommunity.

So stay tuned for our first installation and pavilion highlights from the Biennale!
