The 18th International Architecture Exhibition, known as Venice Architecture Biennale, curated by Lesley Lokko, will take place from May 20 to November 26, 2023, in the Giardini, the Arsenale, and other locations in Venice.
For the first time ever, the spotlight has fallen on Africa and the African Diaspora, that fluid and enmeshed culture of people of African descent that now straddles the globe. What do we wish to say? How will what we say change anything? And, perhaps most importantly of all, how will what we say interact with and infuse what ‘others’ say, so that the exhibition is not a single story, but multiple stories that reflect the vexing, gorgeous kaleidoscope of ideas, contexts, aspirations, and meanings that is every voice responding to the issues of its time?
Lesley Lokko, Curator of the 18th International Architecture Exhibition
