Biennale Architettura 2021 Launches Digital Project Sneak Peek
The 17th International Architecture Exhibition at La Biennale di Venezia, directed by Hashim Sarkis, will run from May 22 to November 21, 2021. To kick things off, they've launched a digital project called Biennale Architettura Sneak Peek, which will offer daily updates on their website and social media platforms like Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube. Plus, there’s a Spotify playlist featuring songs chosen by the participants, acting as the exhibition's soundtrack. Sarkis has proposed five thought-provoking questions tied to the exhibition’s themes. A podcast series will also begin with an episode titled "Between MOSE and Tiepolo," set to release on November 16. This initiative aims to build anticipation for the postponed in-person event due to COVID-19.
