The official Biennale catalogue—a global overview of architecture of the last one hundred years. The emphasis of the 2014 Biennale is on architectural history. Each country is asked to narrate its history over the last one hundred years in relation to the idea of modernity. Has national identity been sacrificed on the altar of modernity? This is the issue that the Biennale is called on to address. Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |

Not surprisingly, of the four Biennales and catalogs, Rem Koolhaas's Fundamentals is the most ambitious, in part because it combines all three parts of the 2014 Biennale (Absorbing Modernity 1914-2014, Elements of Architecture, and Monditalia) into one. Yet one large catalog was not enough for Koolhaas: he and Harvard GSD put their Elements of Architecture research into a fifteen-volume set. Therefore, Fundamentals only touches upon the various elements in the roughly 150 pages devoted to it. About the same number of pages is given to Absorbing Modernity, with two half-pages given to each country and a timeline of important developments tracing the hundred year period from WWI at the bottom of the pages. Monditalia is given the most pages, though it's the one section of the 2014 Biennale that stuck with me the least -- revisiting it is another good reason to pick up catalogs like these when visiting exhibitions.
