SEPTEMBER - NOVEMBER 2008 Experience
2A+P architettura presented at the 11th Venice Biennale its Experience installation. We have auctioned off our history as if in a market. Through this "Picture Gallery" we have opened the door of our work showing our experience as a tale, so as to verify and reinterpret our research. On the wallpaper, coloured frames surround public spaces, a large urban element is transformed into comfortable terracing, a table tells of possible landscapes. By exhibiting our output in this room, the private collection becomes open to the public. We have framed our drawings, placed our visions in showcase, built objects dear to us.
