Born as a vehicle for national propaganda, the art biennial today has become an outsize phenomenon mobilizing not only artists, curators and gallerists but sponsors, celebrities and politicians, commanding huge press attention and deciding the careers of artists worldwide. For a city to host a biennial today has colossal ramifications. This anthology on the art biennial gathers previously published seminal texts from around the world alongside commissioned contributions from the leading scholars, curators, critics and thinkers today--among them Carlos Basualdo, Daniel Buren, John Clark, Okwui Enwezor, Bruce Ferguson, Milena Hoegsberg, Ranjit Hoskote, Caroline A. Jones, Jakouba Konaté, Gerardo Mosquera and Rafal Niemojewski. Tracing the genealogy of the standard exhibition format and examining some of the most famous examples of the twentieth and twenty-first century this reader explores the artistic, theoretical, and political ambitions of such large-scale exhibition projects.

Summary:
Architecture on Display is a research initiative that consists of interviews with each of the living directors of the Venice Biennale for Architecture. The origins of the architecture biennale are generally traced to the 1970s, when it emerged from under the umbrella of the larger Venice Biennale, which was itself established in 1895. Since then it has become one of the most prestigious forums for architectural discourse today, and has served as a model for a range of international exhibitions. The book explores the biennale through the directors who established its particular discourse, including Vittorio Gregotti, Paolo Portoghesi, Francesco Dal Co, Kurt W Forster, Massimiliano Fuksas, Hans Hollein, Richard Burdett, Deyan Sudjic, Aaron Betsky and Kazuyo Sejima, as well as the current president of the Venice Biennale, Paolo Barrata. These conversations do not seek to recapitulate the exhibitions themselves but rather explore the questions that these exhibitions raise, with the hope of offering a model for future curatorial endeavours.

The forum was convened by associate professor Eeva-Liisa Pelkonen, David Andrew Tasman and curator Carson Chan. This publication includes essays that explore the difficulties of exhibiting something as large and complex as a building or a city, and how to communicate something as elusive as an architectural experience that unfolds in space and time. It includes essays by Barry Bergdoll, Mari Lending, Romy Golan, Wallis Miller, Simon Sadler, Craig Buckley, among others, and two round table discussions with curators and practitioners.

Summary:
Les mutations récentes de l’art contemporain conduisent à l’apparition d’un nouveau personnage sur la scène de l’art, le curateur, dont les champs d’intervention et modes d’action se distinguent sans cesse plus de ceux traditionnellement attribués aux commissaires d’exposition. En effet, le curateur ne se contente pas d’être au service des artistes ou des institutions(...)

Summary:
Les mutations récentes de l’art contemporain conduisent à l’apparition d’un nouveau personnage sur la scène de l’art, le curateur, dont les champs d’intervention et modes d’action se distinguent sans cesse plus de ceux traditionnellement attribués aux commissaires d’exposition. En effet, le curateur ne se contente pas d’être au service des artistes ou des institutions culturelles : il entend participer à la création et à l’extension de celle-ci au-delà des limites qui lui sont habituellement assignées. Le curateur peut de ce fait occuper différents rôles, parfois simultanément : artiste, activiste, programmateur, critique, conservateur… Il incarne ainsi un « travailleur culturel » d’un nouveau genre, qui n’est pas entièrement du côté de la création et pas non plus complètement du côté de la réception ou de la transmission de l’art. Dès lors qu’il s’intéresse davantage à des processus, dispositifs ou relations plutôt qu’à des objets autonomisés, sa responsabilité ne se limite plus au domaine de l’art et cherche à s’inscrire dans l’espace public.

Summary:
Maurice R. Stein and Larry Miller’s 'Blueprint for Counter Education' is one of the defining (but neglected) works of radical pedagogy of the Vietnam War era. Originally published as a boxed set by Doubleday in 1970, the book was accompanied by large graphic posters that could serve as a portable learning environment for a new process-based model of education, and a bibliography and checklist that map patterns and relationships between radical thought and artistic practices—from the modernist avant-gardes to postmodernism, from the Bauhaus to Black Mountain College, from Theodor Adorno and Walter Benjamin to Buckminster Fuller and Norman O. Brown—with Herbert Marcuse and Marshall McLuhan serving as points of anchorage. 'Blueprint for Counter Education' thus serves as a vital synthesis of the numerous intellectual currents in the countercultural debate on the radical reform of schools, universities and ways of learning. To accompany this new facsimile edition of the book and posters, an 80-page booklet features a conversation with the original Blueprint creators, Maurice R. Stein, Larry Miller and designer Marshall Henrichs, as well as essays from Jeffrey Schnapp, Paul Cronin and notes on the design by Adam Michaels of Project Projects.
