Venice Architecture Biennale 2027: 20th International Architecture Exhibition

8 May – 21 Nov 2027 · Biennale · Venice, IT

Curated by Wang Shu and Lu Wenyu of Amateur Architecture Studio under the theme 'Do Architecture — For the Possibility of Coexistence Facing a Real Reality'. Pre-opening 6–7 May; public from 8 May. Note: 2027 is the Architecture year — the next Art Biennale is not in 2027.

Highlights

• 2027 is an ARCHITECTURE year — if you want the Art Biennale, 2026 was it
• Wang Shu is a Pritzker laureate (2012); this is his first Biennale directorship
• Giardini + Arsenale on one ticket; a serious visit needs two full days
• A 6.5-month run means September and October avoid both the heat and the opening crush
