The Laboratory of the Future presents CARNIVAL | First appointment 05.20

The 18th International Architecture of La #biennaledivenezia - The Laboratory of the Future - is enriched by Carnival, a six-month-long cycle of events, lectures, panel discussions, films, and performances, that explore the themes of the Biennale Architettura 2023.
On Saturday, May 20th (from 5 to 6,30 pm) six participants in the Force Majeure section of The Laboratory of the Future - Sir David Adjaye OM OBE, Issa Diabaté, Mariam Issoufou Kamara, Walter Hood, Christian Benimana, Felecia Davis – are joined on the stage of the Teatro Piccolo Arsenale, by Lesley Lokko, the Curator of the 18th International Architecture Exhibition. ‘Force Majeure: a Conversation’ is the title of a wide-ranging meeting, that explores the personal and professional passions and preoccupations that have shaped their practice and response to architecture in general, and their contributions to the Exhibition in particular.
“Conceived as a space of liberation rather than a spectacle or #entertainment, Carnival offers a space for communication in which words, views, perspectives, and opinions are traded, heard, analysed, and remembered – Lesley Lokko said. Politicians, policymakers, poets, filmmakers, documentary makers, writers, activists, community organisers and public intellectuals will share the stage with architects, academics, and students. Curating a public event programme is increasingly a form of architectural practice that attempts to bridge the gulf between architects and the public.”
Carnival is supported by Rolex, Exclusive Partner and Official Timepiece of the Exhibition.
‘Force Majeure: a Conversation’ is open to the public free of charge, with reservation required at www.labiennale.org. Admission to the Biennale Architettura 2023 is not included.
The event will be translated live from English to Italian, and recordings will be available at www.labiennale.org.
