Venice Biennale 2006, 10th International Architecture Exhibition - Floornature

Venice Biennale 2006. The 10th International Architecture Exhibition in Venice focuses on the theme of "Cities. Architecture and society", chosen by curator Richard Burdett as a tool for existential analysis of contemporary society concentrated in large metropolitan areas. The exhibition looks at models of interaction among cities, architecture and inhabitants in today's global conurbation.
But the question underlying it all is: are the tools developed by urban science over the past century capable of overseeing, governing and developing these transformations? The answer may be negative.
Many problems still remain to be solved, as the modes of civil existence that may be exchanged among the structures we call architecture, first of all, and then cities as a whole, are undergoing profound changes due to changes in production and society which are not yet easy to envisage in the ultimate modernity we now describe by the term "global".
