- Air Fundamental. Collision between inflatable and architecture by Scuola di Architettura di Siracusa SDS, Università di Catania The installation Air Fundamental is a “pneumatic architecture“, realized by students after a series of researches, held in the venue of Ortiga with the participation of the entire community of Syracuse School of Architecture. This project explores the adjustment capacity of a flexible space (inflatable) placed inside pre-exis ting architectures. This occasion turned the school building into a field for experimentation, activating instantaneous areas essential for temporary events (shows, exhibitions, conferences…) or even some workshops. 4 – 8 June , Arsenale Nord, Spazio Thetis 

- Moskva: urban space by Moscow Committee for Architecture and Urban Development Urban space will take place in the exhibition spaces as well as the inner courtyards of Santa Maria della Pietá, covering approximately 700 square meters. In keeping with the dissimilarity of the spaces, the segment of the exhibition which highlights the city’s past unfolds with inverted prisms hanging from the ceiling, and photographs of iconic buildings, like the experimental housing complexes of the Avant Garde era, colossal Empire-style palace of haute Stalinism and Modernism’s “standardized construction units”. Staging Moscow’s present architectural conditions, the exhibition focuses on public space, exemplified by the ambitious project of Zaryadye Park. A recreated fragment of the proposed park leads onto Moscow’s future central park of the 21st century, illustrating its current debate on paradigms and re-appropriations of public spaces. 7 June – 23 November ,Santa Maria della Pietà, Castello, 3701
