Résumé:
Common Pavilions investigates the architectural significance of the twenty-nine national pavilions set up for the event in the Giardini di Venezia. Italian photographer Gabriele Basilico has documented each pavilion, and his work is presented in large-format duotone printing. His images reflect the atmosphere and character of the pavilions with care and attention to detail. Thirty authors from the nations represented, including architects, philosophers, and artists, have contributed short essays that present the historical and national context for each pavilion, and explain the architectural importance of the pavilion design itself.
