Luxembourg
The Luxembourg Pavilion's exhibit explores modernity's impact on daily life, with a focus on architecture. Five investigations trace humanity's search for modernity, and the tension between progress and tradition. The exhibit examines the stories of various buildings, from the first modern house in Luxembourg to emblematic 1960s projects, and includes forgotten documents and stories transcribed in a journal. Ultimately, the exhibit aims to reconstruct the story of modernity's impact on Luxembourg's built environment.

Fun, colourful and thought-provoking, it offers a tongue-in-cheek moment to the Arsenale sequence...
Latvia's participation in the Biennale Architettura 2023 is organized and supported by the Ministry of Culture of the Republic of Latvia.
