Poland
The Polish Pavilion at the Venice Biennale showcases installations, architectural projects, and conceptual interventions, focusing on architecture as an interdisciplinary form of communication. The exhibition explores the relationship between visual arts, architecture, science, philosophy, and daily life. Featured projects include Zbigniew Oksiuta's "Spatium Gelatum," Dominik Leman & Jacek Dominiczak's "The Architecture of Projection," and Moon Studio's design for the RMF FM radio station headquarters in Krakow.
Supermarket sweep… the Latvian pavilion which has been transformed into a minimart.
This contribution brings a little levity to the long trek through the halls of the Arsenale.
Choice as the basis of architectural process, the pop aesthetics emphasizing the languages of consumption as in Hamilton or Warhol: everything is structured by the dynamics of commerce.
Welcome to T/C Latvija, surely the most instagrammed installation of this edition of the Biennale
Latvia is reopening the archive boxes once again, reminding us (including the Biennial Presidency) of everything that has already been thought up and invented, and inviting us to place the most urgently needed products in the basket, to combine them with one another, and ultimately consume all the knowledge.
Fun, colourful and thought-provoking, it offers a tongue-in-cheek moment to the Arsenale sequence...
