Can the nonlinear and poly vocal form of the art biennial—distinctly different from that of historical museums and academia—provide an experimental testing ground for publicly processing the past and reimagining the future?

Summary:
This book explores how artists and curators evoke the past as a part of the present within the framework of contemporary art biennials. Can the nonlinear and poly vocal form of the art biennial—distinctly different from that of historical museums and academia—provide an experimental testing ground for publicly processing the past and reimagining the future? Conceived as a resource for the fields of art and exhibition studies, as well as for readers interested in history and social change, the book includes reflections on artistic and curatorial strategies, from Lagos to Prishtina and from Venice to Gwangju. The 2019 and 2021 editions of the Göteborg International Biennial for Contemporary Art are featured as case-studies opening up for a wider discussion about the relationship between art and the production of historical consciousness.

Plus qu'un catalogue, « Augures, laboratoire des nouvelles pratiques architecturales », qui recueille textes et images sous la forme d'un abécédaire, est à considérer comme un dispositif complémentaire et parallèle de l'exposition. L'ouvrage cherche à problématiser la thématique des mutations de la ville à travers un dispositif de vis-à-vis entre deux moments, deux temps de l'histoire contemporaine de la Ville : le temps présent et le temps situé en 2050, association susceptible d'interroger le lecteur et de mettre en perspective les grandes questions du monde urbain actuel.

Summary:
This pack includes the four books of the main exhibitions of Lisbon Architecture Triennale 2022, curated by Diogo Burnay and Cristina Veríssimo. ''Cycles'': This book brings together contemporary architectural practices and artists reflecting upon the art of designing cycles, addressing the past and present of construction, relationships to the geopolitics of extractivism, and possible futures for the building industry. ''Multiplicity'': This book features the work of practices from across the globe experimenting in a myriad of ways with architecture. Often working in challenging environmental, social, and political conditions, these practitioners are pushing the boundaries of architectural practice. ''Retroactive'': Through eight essays focusing on pressing issues in the architectural and urban design fields, this book reflects on the challenges and opportunities in addressing broken cities, which fail to provide services and optimal liveable conditions to their inhabitants, and in which one third of humanity dwells. ''Visionaries'': The project ''Visionaries'' – an exhibition and a publication – explores both the process and agents of visionary design production in the age of the next grand narrative.

Summary:
In the forty years since the first iteration of Venice Architecture Biennale, the field of architecture has seen a remarkable change in the role played by exhibition-making. While architecture and display have long been intertwined practices, a rapid proliferation of large-scale perennial exhibitions—particularly in the twenty-first century—has resulted in the biennial / triennial becoming an integral part of our discipline, a new geography of itinerant display that has profoundly altered the contours of architectural thought. Between format, space, and content, what are the various agencies and effects of these events? Biennials / Triennials asks these questions and others of a range of curatorial agents and visits crucial sites of recent exhibitions that reveal what is at stake in the newfound ubiquity of the architectural –ennial.

Summary:
This publication examines the various figures and interests involved in the design and construction of the Canada Pavilion and explores how it was used over the past sixty years to exhibit the work of Canadian artists and architects. This publication intends not only to underline the pavilion's importance in the broader context of modern architecture, but also to highlight its role as an early example of cultural diplomacy. The book is fully endowed with archive material, such as photographs, drawings, and maps, along with a portfolio created by contemporary photographers (Francesco Barasciutti and Andrea Pertoldeo), showing the building before, during, and after the restoration. The essays of the various contributors to the book analyze the cultural and political context in which the Canada Pavilion committee worked (Cammie McAtee); the concept and construction of the building and the links with the architect Enrico Peressutti and the BBPR partnership (Réjean Legault); the pavilion's role in the postwar Italian cultural context (Serena Maffioletti) and its fortunes from its inauguration in 1958 to the restoration in 2018 (Josée Drouin-Brisebois); the restoration project itself (Susanna Caccia Gherardine), and, lastly, the relationship between the Canada Pavilion and the Biennale Gardens (Franco Panzini).
