The Venice Architecture Biennale has announced the full list of participants and collateral events at the 19th International Architecture Exhibition. 

Titled Intelligens. Natural. Artificial. Collective, the exhibition is curated by architect and engineer Carlo Ratti, an architect and engineer. Carlo Ratti is currently holding teaching positions at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and at the Politecnico di Milano. Ratti is the director of the Senseable City Lab at the MIT and a founding partner of the architecture and innovation office CRA-Carlo Ratti Associati based in Torino, New York City, and London.

The 19th International Architecture Exhibition will take place from 10 May to 23 November 2025 at the Giardini, the Arsenale and various venues in Venice, Italy.

"Architecture needs to draw on all forms of intelligence"

For this year's theme, Ratti discusses the necessity of a fundamental shift in practice due to adaptation. As he explained, this exhibition encourages various types of intelligence to collaborate in reevaluating the built environment. The Latin title "Intelligens" notably includes the word "gens," which translates to "people," signaling an invitation for engagement and participation among individuals in this rethinking process.

"In the time of adaptation, architecture is at the center and must lead with optimism. In the time of adaptation, architecture needs to draw on all forms of intelligence – natural, artificial, collective," Ratti said in his curatorial statement. 

"In the time of adaptation, architecture needs to reach out across generations and across disciplines - from the hard sciences to the arts. In the time of adaptation, architecture must rethink authorship and become more inclusive, learning from science."

"Architecture must become as flexible and dynamic as the world we are now designing for," he added.

The exhibition will be emphasized under four methodological pillars: Transdisciplinarity, Living Lab, Space For Ideas, and Circularity Protocol. Read more about the pillars here.

Curatorial highlights

Intelligens will act as a dynamic laboratory, bringing together specialists from different areas of intelligence. The exhibition will showcase more than 750 participants for the first time, including architects and engineers, mathematicians and climate scientists, philosophers and artists, chefs and coders, writers and woodcarvers, farmers and fashion designers, among others. Inclusivity and collaboration are required for adaptation.

He stated that it necessitated a fundamental change in approach to curate on this scale. With the guidance of an interdisciplinary curatorial team, the selection process has been open and bottom-up. "Our open call for projects, Space for Ideas, from May 7 to June 21, 2024, received an overwhelming global response. While the deluge of submissions was exciting and intimidating, it provided us with the opportunity to uncover new, lesser-known talents that may have gone unnoticed."

The participant pool resulting from this spans multiple generations—from seasoned professionals still innovating at the age of ninety to recent graduates embarking on their careers. Pritzker Prize winners, former curators of La Biennale di Venezia, Nobel laureates, and Royal Professors are featured alongside emerging architects and researchers. This incorporation demonstrates our dedication to a variety of viewpoints.

This wealth of contributions necessitates a new approach to authorship. Intelligens questions the traditional view of architects as the sole creators, while other professionals are placed in subordinate roles. Ratti emphasised that proposal is a more inclusive authorship model, drawing inspiration from scientific research. During the adaptation phase, it is crucial to acknowledge and give credit to all voices that influence design.

During the age of adaptation, La Biennale di Venezia needs to work together with other organizations. Intelligens has established links with various global entities, including the Soft Power Club, the Davos Baukultur Alliance, C40, the UN's COP30, and numerous others. GENS, its public program, will feature a multitude of events and discussions, involving audiences of varying sizes.

The exhibition will host over 750 participants (individuals or organizations), over 280 projects, over 500 participants in interdisciplinary teams, over 350 participants in multigenerational teams, over 250 participants in women-led teams, and over 375 participants in transnational teams.
