Pavilion of Estonia ’’Weak Monument’’

The Estonian Centre for Architecture presents the exhibition Weak Monument in the Pavilion of Estonia at the 16th International Architecture Exhibition – La Biennale di Venezia (May 26th - November 25th, 2018), entitled Freespace, and curated by Yvonne Farrell and Shelley McNamara. Estonian Pavilion curators Laura Linsi, Roland Reemaaand Tadeáš Říha explore the spectrum between the explicit representation of the monument and the implicit politics of everyday architectures: from the triumphal column to the pavement beneath it, through all that is inbetween. The title itself – Weak Monument – is an oxymoron, a rhetorical device that offers fresh perspectives on how to recognize politics in any built form. Read further..
