Mostra Internazionale di Architettura - People meet in architecture DESCRIPTION;LANGUAGE=EN:After a series of editions of the Architecture Bien nale directed by eminent critics and historians\, this Sector is once agai n in the hands of an architect\, Kazuyo Sejima. The first woman to direct the Architecture Sector of the Biennale\, Sejima has recently been awarded the prestigious Pritzker Architecture Prize 2010 (together with Ryue Nish izawa).\n \nThe exhibition People meet in architecture will be laid out in the Palazzo delle Esposizioni della Biennale (Giardini) and in the Arsena le\, forming a single itinerary\, with 46 participants: firms\, architects \, engineers and artists from around the world.\nAs usual\, the Exhibition will present 56 National Participations to be held in the historical Pavi lions in the Giardini\, in the Arsenale and in various locations throughou t the city of Venice. The title of the Padiglione Italia is AILATI. Reflec tions from the future. Organized by The Ministry for the Cultural Heritage and Activities\, with thePaBAAC - General Direction for the landscape\, f ine arts\, architecture and contemporary art\, it is conceived by Luca Mol inari.The first-time national participations include Albania\, Kingdom of Bahrain\, Iran\, Malaysia\, Morocco\, Republic of Rwanda.\nIn addition num erous Collateral events have been proposed by international organizations and institutions\, which will organize their own exhibitions and initiativ es in Venice during the occasion.\n \n“The 2010 Architecture Biennale sh ould be a reflection on architecture - says Director Kazuyo Sejima. The tw enty-first century has just started. Many radical changes are taking place . In such a rapid-changing context\, can architecture clarify new values a nd a new lifestyle for the present? Hopefully\, this show will be a chance to experience the manifold possibilities of architecture\, as well as to account for its plurality of approaches\, each one of them being a differe nt way of living”.\n\n“There will be an independent space for each par ticipant\, in order to make them show their understanding of the theme and their personal response to it - says Director Kazuyo Sejima. Individuals will be showing their position towards the interaction of new social and n atural environments\; all of which means that each person is his or her ow n curator. This way the atmosphere of the exhibition itself will be achiev ed through multiple points of view rather than a single orientation”.\n CLASS;LANGUAGE=EN:PUBLIC END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:20100909T070520CEST-52834UVrnX@www.agendavenezia.org DTSTAMP:20100909T050520Z CATEGORIES:EXHIBITIONS CREATED:20100728T174839Z DTEND:20101121T000000 DTSTART:20100828T000000 GEO:45.492390;12.240894 LOCATION:M9 - Via Alessandro Poerio 24\, 30171 Mestre (Venezia) URL:http://www.m9museum.it SUMMARY;LANGUAGE=EN:M9. A New Museum For A New City DESCRIPTION;LANGUAGE=EN:M9 - A New Museum for a New City exhibition is part of the 12th International Architecture Exhibition – Venice Biennale. \n \nAgence Pierre-Louis Faloci (France)\, Carmassi Studio di Architettura (I taly)\, David Chipperfield Architects (Great Britain/Italy)\, Mansilla+Tu ón Arquitectos (Spain)\, Sauerbruch Hutton (Germany) and Souto Moura Arq uitectos (Portugal) are the six architectural practices invited to enter a n international competition for M9\, a new cultural pole in the centre of Venice-Mestre\, held by the Fondazione di Venezia which has conceived and sponsored this project and the future cultural space.\nGiven the special n ature of the project\, in which a new construction must sit well with a hi storic building\, the Foundation - with the consultancy of Francesco Dal C o and in collaboration with the IUAV university in Venice - invited leadin g professionals\, renowned in the field of museum design and\, more import antly\, known for their sensitivity to the context\, to enter the competit ion. Massimo Carmassi\, David Chipperfield\, Pierre-Louis Faloci\, Luis Ma nsilla and Emilio Tuñón\, Matthias Sauerbruch and Louisa Hutton and Edua rdo Souto de Moura were selected because their designs are dignified and n ot outlandish and because they can provide concrete responses to the theme s and issues posed by such a complex project as M9. \nThese practices were asked to consider a pole comprising three different functions: a museum ( a large building designed ex novo)\, retail provision (in the existing blo ck) and services. The participants have risen to this difficult task with original and fascinating designs.\nThe competition approach reiterated the specific and serious nature of a project that involved public administrat ions and protection bodies\, and that differed substantially from other ex amples of competitions by invitation. In a highly significant new approach \, the architects were given a contract and were asked to work in a unifor m and easily comparable manner\, both in terms of design and the future co mmitments required.\n\nIt would be impossible to understand the designs fo r the future hub without explaining its complex contents.\nWhat will M9 be ?\nIt will be a new-generation\, mixed-use and versatile museum of interna tional appeal. This is why M9 represents a major step towards the assertio n of a cultural identity for ‘mainland’ Venice. Equally\, it is an amb itious experiment that develops a new museum standard applied to a difficu lt and important theme – the history of the 20th century.\nA complex str ucture will house the Museum of the 20th Century\, which will focus on the major social\, economic\, urban\, environmental and cultural changes witn essed in the 20th century. The museum will be a driving force and a cataly st of a cultural offer and activities\, a place of learning but also an ag ora where people can exchange ideas\, prompted by interactive exhibitions\ , multi-sensorial exhibition designs\, talks and conferences.\nThere is mo re: there will also be an exhibition space for temporary exhibitions and e ducational services\, centred on contemporary subjects and emerging econom ic and creative areas such as photography\, architecture\, design\, graphi c design\, cinema\, communication and advertising. A mediatheque-archive o f the 20th century will enable visitors to consult films\, audio-visual re cordings\, radio material and digital photographic and text archives. Talk s\, conferences and presentations will be held in the auditorium.\nThis ne w cultural and retail pole will symbolise the architectural and urban rela unch of the surrounding area.\nM9 aspires to be a multi-faceted and comple x project that responds to a need and a desire long expressed by the popul ation of the four mainland Venice municipalities for a museum space and cu ltural centre on a par with the most advanced European experiences.\n CLASS;LANGUAGE=EN:PUBLIC END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:20100909T070520CEST-52941UBUto@www.agendavenezia.org DTSTAMP:20100909T050520Z CATEGORIES:EXHIBITIONS CREATED:20100729T152424Z DTEND:20101114T000000 DTSTART:20100828T000000 GEO:45.432665;12.330174 LOCATION:Istituto Veneto di Scienze\, Lettere ed Arti - Campo S. Stefano\, 2945 - 30124 Venezia SUMMARY;LANGUAGE=EN:Stanley Kubrick Fotografo 1945-1950 DESCRIPTION;LANGUAGE=EN:Love of the paradoxical\, of the oxymoron\, of the ambiguous\, is a key to the work of one of the twentieth century's greates t filmmakers: Stanley Kubrick.\nWhile his films are known and appreciated by millions\, few were aware until now that Kubrick was also a great photo grapher\, in the years just after World War II.\nFrom 1945 to 1950 he work ed\, in fact\, for the magazine Look\, a popular weekly published in New Y ork that aimed to document social life in post-war America.\nRainer Crone\ , curator of this exhibition and expert in contemporary art\, has discover ed and studied over 12\,000 photographs from this magazine\, which had nev er before been critically or historically analyzed.\n\nToday we are privil eged to present a fascinating exhibition at Venetian Institute in Venice: not a simple collection of photographs by an artist\, no matter how import ant\, but a series of 'stories' told in images\, forming a historically un ique corpus through which we can read\, in clearly identifiable form\, the great film director's style and unique flair for 'story-telling'. \n\nSpe cifically\, this collection allows us to convincingly decipher some of the cultural references that were to become characteristic of Kubrick the fil m director as well\; first among them\, the theme of the artist's 'estrang ement' from his own work of art.\nKubrick lived in New York at the time wh en Brecht was encountering smashing success with his Three Penny Opera. An d the future film director\, of Jewish origin\, surely recognized himself in the German cultural trend starting with Expressionism\, and in the beli ef that a 'stylized' portrayal of reality could be much more striking that a 'natural' documentation. Already Proust had pointed out the particular nature of a photographic approach to reality\, which becomes a sort of 'al ienation' from it. In the light of Brecht's later work\, this 'alienation' is then transformed\, in Kubrick\, into experimentation with his own emot ions and experience before the fragment of reality framed by his camera.\n And lastly\, we find the young Kubrick's burning interest in representing all that is blurred and uncertain\, his fascination with what no longer ex ists\, or has not yet come into existence. This was\, moreover\, a specifi c characteristic of the American culture that was then forcefully emerging in its originality and its attempt to break away from its European roots.

On this premise\, on Friday the 27th of August\, in the St. Marks’ Square Galler y\, the Bevilacqua La Masa Foundation will be inaugurating the exhibition GRAPHIC DESIGN FROM JAPAN. 100 POSTERS 2001-2010\, curated by Rossella Men egazzo. One hundred posters\, selected from amongst the thousands of works submitted each year for the most prestigious awards\, representing the be st of Japanese graphics over the last ten years. \n\nAlso\, on the 15th of August this year\, there will be the commemoration of sixty-five years si nce the tragedy of Hiroshima (and of Nagasaki on the 9th of August)\, an e vent remembered annually and with a great sense of responsibility by the m ajor Japanese graphic designers with a series of posters entitled “Hiros hima Appeals”\, one of the most significant awareness-raising campaigns in the sphere of graphic art. Some of these posters\, the most representat ive ones from the last ten years\, have been selected for the exhibition i n memory of the thousands of direct and indirect victims of the explosion of the two atomic bombs.\n\nThe exhibition\, featuring the most significan t works produced over the last ten years both by great masters and more re cent artists of promise\, includes posters selected by a committee made up of two contemporary masters of graphic art\, Kazumasa Nagai and Shin Mats unaga\, in collaboration with the International Hokusai Research Centre\, and are representative of the works produced by Tokyo's main associations of graphic designers and art directors\, such as the Art Directors’ Club (ADC)\, the Japan Grafic Designers’ Association (JAGDA) and the Type Di rectors Club (TDC). The initiative thus becomes a compendium not only of J apanese graphic creativity but also of the long and fruitful working relat ionship and cultural promotion established between Italy and Japan in this field for over thirty years.

Emilio Vedova - Sc ultore DESCRIPTION;LANGUAGE=EN:On 5 June an exhibition that is surprising in its n ovelty will open in the Magazzino del Sale\, whose machinery of display ha s been designed by Renzo Piano. Presenting the work of a dominant figure i n modern and contemporary art\, the sculptor Louise Bourgeois\, it has bee n curated by Germano Celant in collaboration with Jerry Gorovoy of the Lou ise Bourgeois Studio\, New York. On show in the spectacular Venetian space \, in an architectural setting designed to house drawings and sculptures\, will be her almost unknown output of works made out of fabric\, such as t he rich series of her Fabric Drawings\, created between 2002 and 2008\, an d the light presence of her Cells\, like Conscious and Unconscious\, 2008. \nThis set of works\, enriched by a comprehensive anthology of images of the artist’s entire production of sculpture\, is reproduced in its entir ety\, almost as if to form a general catalogue of the subject\, in the vol ume Louise Bourgeois. The Fabric Works\, edited by Germano Celant and publ ished by Skira\, Milan.\n\nIn the artist’s former Studio at the Zattere\ , converted into an exhibition space under the supervision of Renzo Piano and on a design by the Atelier Traldi\, with the coordination and directio n of the engineer Maurizio Milan\, an unfamiliar aspect of Emilio Vedova s work will be presented from 5 June to 19 September: his interest in the three-dimensional\, environmental and theatrical intervention\, where scu lpture dominates. In the form of an essential historical overview\, the ex hibition\, curated by Germano Celant and entitled Emilio Vedova Scultore\, sets out to explore\, through models and large sculptural works\, this fa cet of his expression in which the artist showed an interest from 1953 to 1997.

Architetto\, incisore\, antiquario \, designer\, creatore di gusto DESCRIPTION;LANGUAGE=EN:Conceived by Michele De Lucchiand organised by the Giorgio Cini Foundation and Factum Arte \, Adam Lowe’s Madrid studio\, w ith the support of Accenture as technological partner\, the exhibition “ The Arts of Giambattista Piranesi. Architect\, etcher\, antiquarian\, vedu tista\, designer” is an all-round exploration of the protean activities of Giambattista Piranesi (Venice 1720 - Rome 1778)\, one of the most fasci nating\, complex and multifaceted\nartists in 18th-century Europe. Thirty years after the two exhibitions held by the Institute of Art History to ma rk the bicentennial of the artist’s death\, the Giorgio Cini Foundation has organised another striking show to celebrate his inventiveness and ima gination. In addition to around 300 prints selected from the complete work s held in\nthe Cini Foundation graphic collections\, the exhibition also f eatures a series of ad hoc creations embodying Piranesi’s language\, sty le and natural fl air for “crossing over” – in some cases in an almo st frenzied way – ancient and modern formal repertories in ingenious com binations. Visitors will thus be able to enter Piranesi’s “dark mind after Marguerite Yourcenar’s description and explore his feverish imag ination\, at times verging on paranoia\,\nby going into a tower with a 3D projection of the Carceri d’Invenzione (“Imaginary Prisons”): mental and visionary architecture stripped of any possible real building capacit y\, somewhere between Baroque stage designs and fanciful caprices. On show there will also be “re-workings” constructed ad hoc and exclusively f or the exhibition by Adam Lowe and Factum Arte. They will enable visitors to comprehend the artist’s original ideas and decorative\nlanguage close up in three-dimensional renderings made of rare materials of some of Pira nesi’s inventions in the series Diverse Maniere di adornare i Cammini ( Various Ways of Adorning Fireplaces”). These works will give the publi c an idea of Piranesi’s prolific forge-workshop as an architect and desi gner\, caught between Venetian caprice and Roman imperial splendour. The recreations” of some pieces from his collection of antiques\, which\nh e gathered to be sold on the antiquarian market\, on the other hand\, reve al the iconographic background to his role as a forerunner of a new taste for the antique and the consequent attraction his style exercised over a w hole generation of artists\, architects and decorators in the age of Neocl assicism. The last section of the exhibition is devoted to the celebrated series of views of Rome.

The project originates from research carried out a little more than a year ago by the artistic duo\, inspired by the great F rench oceanographer Jacques Cousteau and linked in particular to experimen ts he conducted at the beginning of the 60s in an underwater habitat on th e seabed off the coast of Sudan. The nature of Cousteau's experience and t he artists' adaptation of it become a cue to thinking rationally about the very concept of depth and abyss\, in both the physical and psychological sense. The artists have proceeded with their re-interpretation and re-acti vation amidst a collection of material and documents linked to the experim ent\, developing it in different directions (photography\, drawings\, vide os and sculpture installations)\, with a gradual\, constant jump in scale. \nThus\, the exhibition\, using the domestic spaces of Palazzetto Tito\, a ims to suggest a possible and poetic portrayal of the relationship between underwater world and terra firma\, inviting reflections on the ephemeral perception of space\, on water as display\, on the relationship between fi ction and reality and on the actual nature of the work of art and its sett ing in the museum. In this way the artists reveal the interest for the rel ationship between context and content\, space and exhibition\, work of art and spectator.\nAnd\, in fact\, the venue of the exhibition\, a building that emerges from the water and is often flooded – as can happen only in Venice –\, takes on a particular significance.

And then\, on the ot her\, they will be working with several themes concerning architecture\, t he dominant influence in the association with the Venice Biennale.\nTheir exhibits\, in this 'domestic setting'\, will include camouflaged installat ions\, research\, urban works projects and discrete relational structures. In this sense\, the freedom of action on the theme of architecture\, the restricted exhibiting possibilities and the particular connotations of the settings combine to form a provocative and stimulating context for the st udio artists to put themselves to the test.

Which leads to a set of architectural visions geometrically combined within the frame\, emphasizing a whole of elements which transcend the or iginal function of the portrayed artifact\, and giving rise to unintention al aesthetic values. The color palette is mostly confined to light grey\, ochre/amber\, blue and black.\n\nThe exhibition title is inspired by the w ide black colour-fields created by the shadows – the true subject of the showcased photographs- and by the cut-outs of sky\, in a highly saturated blue\, marking the compositional voids. The square format sets a distance from the typical rectangular or panoramic frame of movies and TV. A symbo l of geometrical purity\, the square suggests a formal reading of the imag e\, which is freed from any narrative intention.\n CLASS;LANGUAGE=EN:PUBLIC END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:20100909T070520CEST-5513xsrFcz@www.agendavenezia.org DTSTAMP:20100909T050520Z CATEGORIES:EXHIBITIONS CREATED:20100719T170805Z DTEND:20100926T000000 DTSTART:20100826T000000 GEO:45.434631;12.349669 LOCATION:Arsenale di Venezia - Castello - 30122 Venezia URL:http://www.passionye.com SUMMARY;LANGUAGE=EN:Passion 4 Clean Ideas CLASS;LANGUAGE=EN:PUBLIC END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:20100909T070520CEST-5524SVUKMU@www.agendavenezia.org DTSTAMP:20100909T050520Z CATEGORIES:EXHIBITIONS CREATED:20100715T175219Z DTEND:20100920T000000 DTSTART:20100826T000000 GEO:45.418652;12.357346 LOCATION:Isola di San Servolo - Isola di San Servolo - Venezia URL:http://www.mappingvenice.org SUMMARY;LANGUAGE=EN:Mapping Contemporary Venice DESCRIPTION;LANGUAGE=EN:Mapping contemporary Venice is a process\, launched by VIU and Moleskine\, involving intellectuals\, local and national insti tutions and creatives to give birth to a new visual collective imaginary o f the contemporary Venice: a project which will manifest itself both offli ne and online and which will be presented at an exhibition during Architec ture Biennale vernissage (August 25) on the island of San Servolo\, where VIU is located.\n\nThe objective is to find\, interpret and portray the si gnals of contemporaneity which are present on the territory\, or to imagin e new ones to overlap to what we see everyday.

He died prematurely in 1887\, leaving unfinished on his easel Modern Stroll that might have represented a possible Venetia n form of the most modern international trends although it was not until 1 895 that the Biennale was to be founded in Venice.
