"The British Pavilion at the Venice Architecture Biennale aims to create debate that both challenges and influences the future of British architecture. The open call is an opportunity for us to hear from the UK architecture sector about contemporary British practice and the issues that matter most."
--Sarah Mann, Commissioner of the British Pavilion 2020 and Director, Architecture Design Fashion at the British Council
The exhibition will be hosted in the British Pavilion, a listed building opened originally as a tea house in 1897 in the Giardini in Venice. The British Council has been responsible for the British Pavilion at the Venice Biennale since 1937 and is renowned for commissioning the highest calibre UK artists and architects to present exhibitions and installations at the Pavilion.
