The 18th International Architecture Exhibition is held from Saturday 20th May to Sunday 26th November (pre-opening on 18th and 19th May), curated by academic, educator and best-selling novelist Lesley Lokko.

About this Biennale she commented: “Architects have a unique opportunity to put forward ambitious and creative ideas that help us imagine a more equitable and optimistic future in common” and added: “For the first time, the spotlight is on Africa and its diaspora, on the fluid and intertwined culture of people of African descent that now embraces the world.”

The Laboratory of the Future”, the title of this year’s edition, is an exhibition divided into six parts and includes 89 participants, more than half from Africa or the African diaspora. 63 national participations will organise their exhibitions in the Pavilions at the Giardini (27), at the Arsenale (22) and in the historic centre of Venice (14).

The Italian Pavilion at the Tese delle Vergini in the Arsenale is curated by the Fosbury Architecture collective and the title of the exhibition is “SPATIALE: Everyone belongs to everyone else”.
