Venice Architecture Biennale 2012

KS selected for the Architecture Biennale in Venice

Kjellander Sjöberg is invited to participate at the exhibition “Lighthouses – The Nordic Common Ground” in the Nordic pavilion at the Architecture Biennale 2012.

10 architecture practices from Sweden, Norway and Finland were selected to design respective installations for the Sverre Fehn’s uplifting exhibition pavilion built in 1962. The curator for the Nordic contribution is Peter MacKeith.

David Chipperfield is the main curator of this year’s Biennale. The general topic is Common Ground. “The emphasis of the 2012 Biennale is on what we have in common. Above all, the ambition of Common Ground is to reassert the existence of an architectural culture, made up not just of singular talents but a rich continuity of diverse ideas united in a common history, common ambitions, common predicaments and ideals”

The exhibition is open 29th August – 25th November 2012.
