Comunicato stampa

Re-set, new wings for architecture
Inside Outside designs the Dutch submission for the International Architecture Biennale in Venice
The thirteenth edition of the International Architecture Biennale in Venice will open August 29, 2012. The Netherlands Architecture
Institute invited Inside Outside to design the Dutch submission.
With the exhibition Re-Set Inside Outside responds to the vacant architecture in the Netherlands, showing how the
experience of space itself can be changed by relatively simple interventions. One single mobile object occupies the space of the
Dutch Pavilion (a building by Gerrit Rietveld, 1954) for three months and emphasises the building’s unique qualities. The
installation, two curtains of 16 meter each, move through space, taking diff erent positions and constantly changing the
architecture. In addition the semi-transparent windows of the pavilion are replaced with clear pespex glass making it possible for
natural daylight to enter the space. Every fi ve minutes the experience of space in the pavilion will be completely diff erent.
Exhibition: August 29 - November 25, 2012.
Location: Dutch Pavilion in the Giardini di Castello, Venice, Italy.
Design: Inside Outside - Petra Blaisse with Marieke van den Heuvel, Peter Niessen, Laura van Santen and Rabia Zuberi.
Curator: Ole Bouman, Director of the NAI
