La Biennale di Venezia

At work with 0047, La Biennale di Venezia, 2010

On the occasion of the 12^th Architecture Biennale in Venice 0047 is moving to Italy for one week, specifically into the Nordic pavilion in the Giardini as part of the At Work With residency program. From 7^th to 12^th of September 2010, 0047 will be creating a seven days cross-section of the gallery’s work in progress. This is not only a transfer of 0047’s daily production to another country but also an invitation to others to come there, interact, learn more about 0047 and take part in our work. 0047 will cut in to a new field of work each day, disseminated through a series of talks by 0047 and its collaborators.

At work with

The residency-program “At work with” is curated by Testbedstudio and Economy. Its aim is to exhibit architecture as practice rather than as representation during the 12 weeks of the biennale. Various Nordic offices and architecture related practices have been invited to work in the Nordic pavilion of Venice Biennale 2010 for one week each. www.atworkwith.com
