Responding to Director Rem Koolhaas’ theme “Absorbing Modernity: 1914-2014” for the 2014 Venice Architecture Biennale, titled “Fundamentals”, the British Council has launched an open call for exhibition proposals that investigate how an aspect of British architecture has adapted to the condition of modernity during this era.

Commissioner of the British Pavilion, Vicky Richardson, says: “We’re excited about the opportunity to contribute to a major research exhibition. We want to take Rem Koolhaas’s theme as the starting point for an exhibition that looks at British architecture from the past 100 years in a new light.”

Deadline for submissions is June 21, 2013. Shortlisted candidates will be interviewed on July 5 and an announcement will be made on July 10, 2013.
