      Kazuyo Sejima: borders matter less than relations

      txt: Introduction by Kazuyo Sejima, director of the 12th Venice International Architecture Exhibition
      We are more connected than ever, our culture, as well as our economy, has become global. Because of this, people’s consciousness and lifestyles change, theoretically and substantially. Sometimes relationships get shaped through indirect communication. Still, we believe that architecture plays a signi?cant role in this: it has the power to open up new perspectives. We imagine ideas that can have far reaching effects. These dreams come from many sources and may represent a new independent freedom that is essentially inherent to contemporary culture. [...] The idea is to help people relate to architecture, to help architecture relate to people, and to help people relate to themselves.
      txt: Kazuyo Sejima appointed as Director
      We are now well into the 21st Century. We can take this opportunity to step back and assess the zeitgeist of now through the process of the Biennale. This can clarify contemporary essentials of architecture and the importance of new relationships as we step into the future. One potent point of departure could be the boundaries and adaptation of space. This might include the removal of boundaries, as well as their clarification. Any part of architecture’s inherent multiplicity of adjacencies can become a topic. It might be argued that contemporary architecture is a rethinking and perhaps softening of those borders.

      [txt] Venice Biennale Review - www.archinect.com
      The Venice Biennale has an overwhelming presentation of design that is not overly coherent. Forget trying to see it all. Take it in like an Italian workday; expresso, then one hour of exhibit, followed by another espresso and brioche, followed by the next hour, and so on. Or take a break over at the Stalker/ Osservatorio Nomade exhibit and have your I Ching foretold, like architects such as Peter Eisenmann, who I've heard ritually does this. I am taking with me from the Biennale a hazy memory of craft, digitization, urban solutions and a reading of good fortune for the year.

      Palladio: too provincial, too innovative

      [txt] Andrea Palladio Architect Super Partes - www.palladio2008.info
      This having been said, we also must acknowledge that Palladio's life was not a bed of roses. In Vicenza, for instance, he worked on commission for public works that changed the aspect of the town (just think of the Basilica on the Piazza dei Signori,) but in return he sadly had the pleasure of seeing only few of his palazzi being fully built, as these works were too ambitious for the urban families. In Venice also a different odd phenomenon happened: Palladio's palazzi were not considered apt for the capital, maybe because they were too innovative, or more likely because they were labelled as provincial; so that's why only few Palladian churches are reflected in the Venetian lagoon.

      Massimo Cacciari, the centre-left mayor, said that it was "typical of this city to do itself down". The absence of facilities for the physically handicapped could be traced to the beginning of the project, when planners had assumed the disabled would use the existing ferryboat across the canal.

      Architecture is not building

      txt: OUT THERE - Venice Biennale Architecture 11th International Architecture Exhibition The 11th International Architecture Exhibition entitled Out There: Architecture Beyond Building, directed by Aaron Betsky and organised by La Biennale di Venezia presided over by Paolo Baratta, will take place in Venice from Sunday, September 14th to Sunday, November 23rd 2008. The preview will be on September 11th, 12th and 13th.
      Betsky goes on to point out “what should be an obvious fact: architecture is not building. Buildings are objects and the act of building leads to such objects, but architecture is something else. It is the way we think and talk about buildings, how we represent them, how we build them. This is architecture. More generally, architecture is a way of representing, shaping and perhaps even offering critical alternatives to the human-made environment. In fact, buildings are not enough. They are the tombs of architecture, the residue of the desire to make another world, a better world, and a world open to possibilities beyond the everyday. In a concrete sense, architecture is that which allows us to be at home in the world”. “The challenge of the 11th – underlines Betsky - is to collect and encourage experimentation in architecture. Such experimentation can take the form of momentary constructions, visions of other worlds, or the building blocks of a better world. This Biennale does not want to present buildings that are already in existence and can be enjoyed in real life. It does not want to propose abstract solutions to social problems, but wants to see if architecture, by experimenting in and on the real world, can offer some concrete forms or seductive images”.

      txt: What is Check-in Architecture
      What is Check-In Architecture? Check-In Architecture is 300 documentaries. Check-in Architecture is a free-press and a blog. Check-in Architecture is 2 exhibitions. Check-in Architecture is hundreds of student-produced, online and offlinedistributed videos. Check-in Architecture is 600 students and researchers from all over Europe traveling across the continent to investigate folds in urban space. Check-in Architecture is a generation living low-cost, travelling low-cost, aware of communication dynamics and their roles in it. Check-in Architecture: the project Check-in Architecture is a participatory research project, supported by the International Union of Architects (UIA), the Venice Biennale of Architecture, and the 2008 World Design Capital, Turin. We invite art, architecture, design and creativity students from the best universities in Europe (you can find the complete list under the heading universities) to film spaces and people all over the continent. You will have the opportunity to travel for free, with logistical support from the Check-in Architecture office. In every city, you will accomplish a mission, producing a short documentary based on a script and a set of instructions

      Flashy starchitects

      txt ex: Skyscrapers won't turn Croydon into Barcelona
      It's one of the biggest questions of the age: does spending a lot on flashy buildings by international "starchitects" actually deliver regeneration? It delivers something: nice, RIBA award-winning buildings. Maybe a couple of weeks of athletics. Occasionally, a stupendous folly. And a lot of deja vu. [...]
      [...] how much money do you really need to spend on architecture to regenerate an area's fortunes? Isn't it time we started seeing regeneration as a bottom-up, people-focused process and not a top-down way of spending millions on funky buildings?
