Rare Book Library Exhibition| Venice and Architecture Biennale

In May 2023, Paolo Portoghesi (1931-2023), the Italian architect and historian who served as the chief curator of the first Venice Architecture Biennale (1980), passed away, coinciding with the opening of the 18th Venice Architecture Biennale, "The Laboratory of the Future." The Winsing Art Place has gathered official manuals of the Architecture Biennale, special editions from various national pavilions, and architecture-related publications centered around this lagoon city to host the exhibition "Venice and Architecture Biennale," paying tribute to this cross-century event. Through books, this exhibition leads readers to explore the origin of the Venice Architecture Biennale and its critical role from Postmodernism to the current architectural wave, while also attempting to trace the context of architectural exhibitions and revisit Taiwan's position during the event since its participation in 2000.
