  • Venice's Giardini Della Biennale and the Geopolitics of Architecture
    FOLKLORIC MODERNISM: VENICE’S GIARDINI DELLA BIENNALE AND THE GEOPOLITICS OF ARCHITECTURE Joel Robinson This paper considers the national pavilions of the Venice Biennale, the largest and longest running exposition of contemporary art. It begins with an investigation of the post-fascist landscape of Venice’s Giardini della Biennale, whose built environment continued to evolve in the decades after 1945 with the construction of several new pavilions. With a view to exploring the architectural infrastructure of an event that has always billed itself as ‘international’, the paper asks how the mapping of national pavilions in this context might have changed to reflect the supposedly post-colonial and democratic aspirations of the West after the Second World War. Homing in on the nations that gained representation here in the 1950s and 60s, it looks at three of the more interesting architectural additions to the gardens: the pavilions for Israel, Canada and Brazil. These raise questions about how national pavilions are mobilised ideologically, and form/provide the basis for a broader exploration of the geopolitical superstructure of the Biennale as an institution. Keywords: pavilion, Venice Biennale, modernism, nationalism, geopolitics, postcolonialist. Joel Robinson, The Open University Joel Robinson is a Research Affiliate in the Department of Art History at the Open University and an Associate Lecturer for the Open University in the East of England. His main interests are modern and contemporary art, architecture and landscape studies. He is the author of Life in Ruins: Architectural Culture and the Question of Death in the Twentieth Century (2007), which stemmed from his doctoral work in art history at the University of Essex, and he is co-editor of a new anthology in art history titled Art and Visual Culture: A Reader (2012).

  • Expo Pavilions As Expression of National Aspirations
    This is the post-print of: Expo Pavilions As Expression Of National Aspirations. Architecture As Political Symbol. a pre-copyedited version of an article accepted for publication in Archhist’ 13 ARCHITECTURE POLITICS ART CONFERENCE, Politics in the history of architecture as cause & consequence, Vol. 48, 2013, pp. 20-29, following peer review. EXPO PAVILIONS AS EXPRESSION OF NATIONAL ASPIRATIONS Architecture as political symbol Ksenia Katarzyna Piatkowska Gdansk University of Technology, Poland Abstract: The World‘s Fair since their beginning served as an international presentation of goods and achievements of particular nations and all the same became the résumé of global development. Independently from the actual political situation the Expos’ area became the oasis of peace where the potential antagonisms were expressed through the evocative architecture of pavilions. The Expo pavilions are extraordinary for their temporary character. The temporariness factor and the cost- effectiveness of Expo pavilions’ constructions are juxtaposed with high expectations due to the pavilions prestige and the aesthetic expression. According to the circumstances there are often built objects that become the architectural icons or unforgettable symbols and physical proclamation of present. Architecture of the Expo pavilions becomes the evident testimony to contemporary constructing abilities at the same time attaining perfection in the form. Expo pavilions are the extreme example of use of architecture as political symbol. The national pavilions - once ignored and underestimated – currently may change any nation’s image dramatically. Thus the role of architecture in case of creating the Expo pavilions cannot be overestimated. Abounding in symbolism and contemporary, innovative solutions is lake a mirror the modern mankind looks at herself with a admiration and at the same time plans next surprising aesthetic revolutions and ideological theories.

  • An Unusual Time for Women at the Venice Biennale
    An Unusual Time for Women at the Venice Biennale Kris Lemsalu, 4Life, 2018. Courtesy the artist. Photo by Edith Karlson There is a marked upswing in the number of women artists participating at the Venice Biennale (11 May to 24 November) in 2019, titled May You Live in Interesting Times. The corollary is, it seems we do. Forty-two of the seventy-nine artists taking part this year are women—that’s 53%. In 2015, the number of solo female participants was 33%, and in 2017, 35% of all participating artists were women. It’s worth noting, that figures only reflect those who have identified as male or female, and doesn’t account for other genders. The 2019 statistics indicate not only that commissioners are paying closer attention to the representation of gender but that the kind of exposure that women artists are getting is changing: of the forty-three National Pavilions presenting a single artist at the 58th Venice Biennale, some twenty-six are women—an impressive 60%. With a strong female-fronted voice 2019 is an exciting time for everyone, but particularly mid-career women artists who often hit a plateau elsewhere in the commercial and institutional art world. The youngest participant in this year’s Biennale is twenty-nine, and is the only artist under thirty being exhibited. The artists are getting older, but the audiences are getting younger, as “more than half of them are under twenty-six years of age”. According to statistics compiled by the Freelands Foundation in 2017, 50% of women selected in the last ten years to represent Great Britain have been women—this year the mantel is picked up by Cathy Wilkes, curated by Zoe Whitley, (who returns from Italy to start her new role, working alongside the Biennale curator Ralph Rugoff at the Hayward Gallery).

  • The 2015 Venice Biennale
    THIRD TEXT Critical Perspectives on Contemporary Art and Culture April 2016 The 2015 Venice Biennale N J Hynes In 2015 the Venice Biennale weathered not only blazing sun, thick fog and occasional flooding; it also weathered a critical storm: an atypical number of negative reviews filed by art critics in the heat of May and June. Yet by the time the Biennale closed, total visitor numbers reached over half a million (up from 475,000 in 2013), thirty-one percent of these students and young people. This review will examine the staying power of both the exhibition and its critics’ objections, six months on. Which of them lasted the course? Going to the Biennale in November is like seeing a friend nearing the end of a marathon. They’re still going strong, but have slowed down and look gaunt. There is a grace and a lack of pretence, along with a pride in having survived. With the glamorous parties long over, the Biennale belongs to the Venetians, families and friends slipping in before the show ends. The paint is peeling in places, some technology no longer works, a few escalators remain permanently out of order. But in this weathered state the art still says what it did earlier – perhaps, indeed, it does so more clearly. The theme chosen by this year’s curator, the New York-based Okwui Enwezor, was ‘All the World’s Futures’. Sounding like a truncated phrase from Shakespeare, the title suggests comprehensiveness: a singular, shared world; a variety of visions, possibilities and fates. But there are other futures to consider too; those traded on commodity markets by brokers and traders barely connected to the world at all.

When La Biennale di Venezia Meets History does not just convey the content that visitors to the Central Pavilion in the Giardini della Biennale will encounter, but also a vision. Disquiet serves as a driving force behind research, which requires dialogue to verify its theories and needs history to absorb knowledge. This is what La Biennale does and will continue to do as it seeks to reinforce a methodology that creates even stronger bonds between its own disciplines. There are six Muses at the Biennale: Art, Architecture, Cinema, Theatre, Music and Dance, given a voice through the great events that fill Venice and the world every year. There are the places that serve as venues for all of La Biennale’s activities: the Giardini, the Arsenale, the Palazzo del Cinema and other cinemas on the Lido, the theatres, the city of Venice itself.

These involved two simultaneous phenomena.2 The first was the arrival of contemporary Asian artists on the international stage, chiefly at major cross-national exhibitions including the Venice and São Paolo Biennales. This may be conveniently dated to Japanese participation at Venice in the 1950s to be followed by the inclusion of three contemporary Chinese artists in the Magiciens de la terre exhibition in Paris in 1989.3 The new tendency was followed by the arrival of Chinese contemporary art at the Venice Biennale in 1993.

  • The Visitor As a Commercial Partner: Notes on the 58Th Venice Biennale
    Daniel Birnbaum: Seventy-nine artists is a relatively limited number. Ralph Rugoff: How many did you have in yours? Daniel Birnbaum: I can’t remember. – Artforum, May 20191 01/09 The test of a first-rate intelligence is the ability to hold two opposed ideas in the mind at the same time, and still retain the ability to function. One should, for example, be able to see that things are hopeless and yet be determined to make them otherwise. Claire Fontaine – F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Crack-Up, 1936 In his statement inaugurating the 58th Venice The Visitor as a Biennale, Paolo Baratta, its president, felt compelled to address the image of the event. Commercial Entitled “The Visitor as a Partner,” the statement Partner: Notes reads in part: A partial vision of the Exhibition might consider it a high-society inauguration on the 58th followed by a line six months long for “the rest of the world.” Others might consider Venice Biennale the six-month-long Exhibition the main event and the inauguration a by-product. It would be so useful if journalists would e l a come at another moment and not during n n e the “three-day event” of the “society” i B inauguration, which can only give them a e c i 2 n very partial image of the Biennale! e V e h n t i 8 a It would be useful, indeed, but it won’t happen. t 5 n e o ÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊ“Our visitors have become our main h F t e n partner,” Baratta candidly adds (meaning r i o a s l “commercial partner”), to such an extent that e C t Ê o during the overcrowded opening days, many 9 N 1 : 0 r artworks were at risk of being damaged, and 2 e r n t e basic health and safety standards weren’t r b a m P followed.
