Everyville 2008 Online Competition





Everyville 2008 Online Competition
11th International Architecture Exhibition

The Fondazione La Biennale di Venezia strongly believes in the younger generation, in its creative talents and the force of its ideas.

Throughout the years this conviction has been translated into dedicated initiatives and projects. On the occasion of the 11th International Architecture Exhibition (Venice, September 14th > November 23rd, 2008) this conviction is represented by the Everyville online competition, an extraordinary opportunity for university students from around the world to be directly involved in the organisation of the Venice Biennale.

The competition calls for the preparation of an idea-project based on the theoretical-critical text written by the curator of the 11th International Architecture Exhibition, Aaron Betsky. However, this time the element of challenge and stimulation lies in the fact that the works selected by a prestigious Jury will become an integral part of the 11th Exhibition, to be presented in a dedicated section.

The competition thus represents a unique opportunity and an unrepeatable occasion to present your work, coupled with the satisfaction of presenting it during what is now considered to be the most important architectural exhibition in the world.
