Common Ground Participants Common Ground Participants The selection of participants for this year’s Biennale evolved in response to the Common Ground theme. We began with a desire to emphasise shared ideas over individual authorship, and realised that this required us to initiate dialogues rather simply make a selection of individuals. We began by asking a limited group of architects to develop ideas that might lead to further invitations: everyone was asked to propose a project along with a dialogue that reacted to the theme and showed architecture in its context of influence and affinity, history and language, city and culture. The final list of contributors demonstrates a rich culture of difference rather than a selection of edited and promoted positions. We want to emphasise the common ground that the profession shares, notwithstanding the apparent diversity of today’s architectural production. The sharing of differences is critical to the idea of an architectural culture. (David Chipperfield) 1. Group: 4. Adam Caruso 13178 Moran Street Peter St. John CARUSO ST.

  • PORTUGUESE PAVILION 16Th International Architecture Exhibition La Biennale Di Venezia 26.05
    Curators Nuno Brandão Costa Sérgio Mah PORTUGUESE PAVILION 16th International Architecture Exhibition La Biennale di Venezia 26.05 – 25.11.2018 Palazzo Giustinian Lolin Fondazione Ugo e Olga Levi PORTUGUESE PAVILION Press Kit March, 2018 Public Without Rhetoric is the title of the Portuguese Pavilion at the 16th International Architecture Exhibition – La Biennale di Venezia 2018 Press Release Public Without Rhetoric is the project selected to represent Portu - gal at the 16th International Architecture Exhibition of La Biennale di Venezia. The curators Nuno Brandão Costa and Sérgio Mah pro - pose a tour of the “Public Building” of Portuguese origin through 12 works created at a time when Western Europe is confronted with its limits and possibilities and as architecture manifests its nonconformist nature in reinforcing its role in political and social intervention. The central theme given to the Biennale Architettura 2018 in the vision of its curators Yvone Farrell and Shelley McNamara, Frees - pace “celebrates architecture’s ability to find additional and unex - pected generosity in every project, even in the most private, defensive, exclusive and commercially restrictive conditions.” The Portuguese Official Representation this year is an affirma - tion of Architecture as a celebration of the experience of public space, highlighting its fundamental importance in the creation of experience in contemporary societies. The creation of relations - hips, dynamics and flows through experimental work in public territory builds and promotes new networks and opportunities. Public Without Rhetoric is thus the formal basis for a reflection on architecture in public space, part of the 12 projects created in the last ten years by different generations of Portuguese architects.
