Venice Biennale 2012, Common Ground, Venice, Italy. Architect: Various, 2012. Torre David / Gran Horizonte, installation by Urba
The emphasis of the 2012 Biennale - explains David Chipperfield - is on what we have in common. Above all, the ambition of Common Ground is to reassert the existence of an architectural culture, made up not just of singular talents but a rich continuity of diverse ideas united in a common history, common ambitions, common predicaments and ideals. In architecture everything begins with the ground. It is our physical datum, where we make the first mark, digging the foundations that will support our shelter.
