Australian pavilion venice architecture biennale. Australia is one of 29 countries to be granted a permanent exhibition site within the giardini della biennale. The royal australian institute of architects raia will present repair at the australian pavilion during the 16 th international architecture exhibition la biennale di venezia. An australian grassland will be brought to life inside the australian pavilion at the 16th international architecture biennale in venice in 2018 with the successful proposal announced at events in sydney and melbourne. Created by baracco wright architects in collaboration with linda tegg it consists of a living installation grasslands.
When and if the postponed 17 th venice architecture biennale goes ahead in late august visitors to the australian pavilion will find themselves entering an exhibition space very different from what the dark square and imposing building suggests they might encounter inside. This new pavilion replaced a temporary exhibition space designed by philip cox in 1988 in use until 2013. The theme for the australian pavilion at the 2018 venice biennale is repair.
