Koolhaas Reveals Title for 2014 Venice Biennale
At a presentation in Italy this morning, Rem Koolhaas announced that the title of the 2014 Venice Biennale will be "Fundamentals." According to Domus magazine's live-tweeting of the event, Koolhaas wants this Biennale, which he will curate, to use historical research to explore how Modernity and globalization has, since 1914, formed the architecture we practice today. The Biennale will focus on the erasure of national architectural identities and the formation, over the last 200 years, of a global architecture which produces, in Koolhaas' words, "the same stuff, with the same materials, in the same styles. How did this happen?"
