Sie ist als eine Art Labormaschine konzipiert, in der jede*r Teilnehmer*in sich bemüht, Wege in eine Zukunft im Zeichen von Nachhaltigkeit und Inklusion zu finden.

Sulle Sponde Accessibility on stage

Sulle sponde, a dance piece premiering at the German Pavilion at this year’s Architecture Biennale in Venice, grapples with issues of inclusion and accessibility in the world of culture and the arts. We talked to the choreographer about it.

Inclusion at the Venice Architecture Biennale A Red Carpet for All

Open for Maintenance / Wegen Umbau geöffnet is the title of the German Pavilion at the 18th International Architecture Exhibition in Venice. The pavilion is dedicated to exploring matters of repair, maintenance, accessibility, and inclusion. But what does accessibility mean in a city made up of roughly 120 islands and 359 heritage-protected bridges and whose transport runs mostly on canals? And how inclusive is the Biennale itself?

Venice Architecture Biennale Working With What’s There

What’s left after a Biennale? For instance the construction material for the German Pavilion: for 2023 the plan was to build this structure entirely of material left over from the last Biennale. After all, sustainable architecture also involves wasting less by way of resources.
