Progetti speciali/Special projects 

Reporting from Marghera and Other Waterfronts - Progetto Speciale della 

Biennale Architettura 2016/Special Project of the Biennale Architettura 2016 

Questa sezione della mostra è stata immaginata come un percorso nel tempo 

che, a partire dall’analisi e dalla rilettura di alcuni dei progetti più signifi cativi di 

rigenerazione urbana di porti industriali, contribuisca a stimolare una rifl essione 

ampia e trasversale sui principi e sulle modalità con cui affrontare e orientare 

la complessa riconversione produttiva di Porto Marghera/This section of the 

exhibition is imagined as a voyage through time which starts with analysis and 

reinterpretation of some of the most signifi cant urban regeneration projects for 

industrial ports. It encourages wide-ranging refl ection on the principles and methods 

with which to approach and orient the complex conversion of production 

in Porto Marghera. 

Sede/Venue: Forte Marghera, Edifi cio 36; Curatore/Curator: Stefano Recalcati;

A World of Fragile Parts - Progetto Speciale Padiglione delle Arti Applicate/Special 

Project of the Applied Arts Pavilion 

A seguito dell’accordo tra La Biennale di Venezia e il Victoria and Albert 

Museum di Londra, si affronta il tema delle minacce che incombono sulla 

salvaguardia dei siti patrimonio globale dell’umanità, indagando in che 

modo la produzione di copie può aiutare nella preservazione degli artefatti 

culturali. Questo porta con sé domande diffi cili: cosa possiamo copiare e 

come? Che differenza c’è fra una brutta copia e una che mantiene il valore 

nel tempo? Qual è il rapporto fra copia e originale in una società che privilegia 

l’autenticità? E come sarà possibile coordinare effi cacemente un tale 

impegno su scala davvero mondiale e inclusiva?/Following the agreement 

between La Biennale di Venezia and the Victoria and Albert Museum, the 

exhibition explores the threats facing the preservation of global heritage sites 

and how the production of copies can aid in the preservation of cultural 

artifacts. With that comes a host of diffi cult questions: What do we copy and 

how? What distinguishes a bad copy from one with lasting value? What is 

the relationship between the copy and the original in a society that privileges 

authenticity? And how can such an effort be properly coordinated at a truly 

global and inclusive scale?

Report from Cities: Conflicts of an Urban Age - Progetto Speciale della Biennale 

Architettura 2016/Special Project of the Biennale Architettura 2016 

A seguito dell’accordo tra La Biennale di Venezia e la London School of Economics 

Cities, in previsione della conferenza mondiale delle Nazioni Unite Habitat 

III/Following the agreement between La Biennale di Venezia and the London 

School of Economics Cities, in view of The United Nations Habitat III. 

Il padiglione «delle città» offre approfondimenti sulle più importanti tendenze 

e confl itti che si verifi cano oggi nell’ambito urbano. Sviluppa tre temi: come 

sono cambiate le città negli ultimi 25 anni, quali sono stati gli effetti sullo 

spazio pubblico, sulla diseguaglianza e l’informalità, quali modelli di pianifi - 

cazione urbana hanno dimostrato maggior resilienza nel tempo/The ”cities” 

pavilion will provide the visitor with insights on the major trends and confl icts 

experienced today in the urban realm. The exhibition addresses three issues: 

how have cities transformed over the last 25 years, what are the effects on 

public space, inequality and informality, which models of urban planning 

demonstrate resilience over time. 

Sede/Venue: Sale d’Armi C, Arsenale; Curatore/Curator: Ricky Burdett; Gruppo
