Views of SpontaneousInterventions: design actions for the common good, the U.S. Pavilion at the 13th International Venice Architecture Biennale (Fall 2012).
Spontaneous Interventions: Design Actions for the Common Good, the official U.S. representation at the 13th International Architecture Exhibition at the Venice Biennale (2012), will travel to Chicago in May 2013, and is seeking new projects—urban interventions realized in U.S. cities in the past two years—with an emphasis on those based in Chicago and the Midwest region. The exhibition will be on view through Summer 2013.
Spontaneous Interventions examines the growing movement of architects, designers, planners, artists and citizens initiating their own projects to bring positive change to the urban realm. The exhibition in Chicago will feature a site-specific adaptation of the original exhibition design and will include many of the projects featured in Venice alongside dozens of new projects selected as a result of this open call for submissions. To accompany the reinstallation of the exhibition in Chicago, the curatorial team is creating a roster of programs that engages local architecture, design and arts communities, and is also exploring the possibility of creating interventions on sites throughout the city.
Architects, designers, planners, artists and citizens who have realized an intervention in a U.S. city—and in particular, in Chicago and the Midwest—in the past 2 years (2011 or 2012) are encouraged to submit PDFs of their projects by Wednesday, March 6 to be considered for inclusion in the Chicago exhibition. Submissions should include a brief project description (maximum 500 words) and images (maximum 5).
