As Planlux, we are pleased to once again provide lighting design support for the Türkiye Pavilion at The 20th International Architecture Exhibition of La Biennale di Venezia.
The 20th International Architecture Exhibition of La Biennale di Venezia will be held between 8 May and 21 November 2027 (previews on 6–7 May) in Giardini, Arsenale, and various sites around Venice. The title and theme of the exhibition have been announced by the president of La Biennale di Venezia, Pietrangelo Buttafuoco, and the curators Wang Shu and Lu Wenyu as Do Architecture — For the Possibility of Coexistence Facing a Real Reality.
‘The Türkiye Pavilion has announced “Spolia Futures” as its official exhibition for the 20th International Architecture Exhibition of La Biennale di Venezia, which will take place from May 8 to November 21, 2027. Commissioned by the Istanbul Foundation for Culture and Arts (İKSV), the exhibition will be curated by ba-be commons, a research collective composed of Başak Eren, Asya Ece Uzmay, Beril Sarısakal Erkent, and Ece Yetim. The proposal was selected through an open call and two-stage evaluation process to represent Türkiye at the 2027 edition of the Venice Architecture Biennale. The proposal examines spolia, traditionally understood as the reuse of architectural elements, as an evolving architectural method rather than solely a historical practice.’ Arch Daily
