Bayern Munich 2025/26 Season Preview: Challenges Ahead for Kompany's New-Look Side
Section: Arts
The Architecture Biennale in Venice is set to explore the pressing challenges posed by climate change through an immersive experience. The German pavilion aims to engage visitors in a physical and psychological 'stress test' that reflects future urban climates influenced by global warming. This initiative, announced by the curatorial team, emphasizes the urgent need for climate-responsive urban planning.
The curatorial team, which includes architect Nicola Borgmann, building technology professor Elisabeth Endres, landscape architect Gabriele Liefer, and architect Daniele Santucci, intends to highlight the insufficient prioritization of climate-adaptive city planning. They seek to present actionable insights and innovative solutions to address these challenges.
The exhibition will be divided into two thematic sections: 'Stress' and 'Destress.' This framework will illustrate how urban infrastructure and buildings must be redesigned to mitigate rising temperatures in urban areas. While specific details of the exhibition remain under wraps, the focus will be on strategies for managing the impacts of heat, particularly in urban settings.
The implications of urban heat are significant, especially for vulnerable populations such as the elderly, pregnant individuals, children, and socio-economically disadvantaged groups lacking access to education and resources. Burkert Pieske, a cardiologist from the University of Rostock, who is not part of the curatorial team, emphasized the health risks associated with climate change, particularly for individuals with pre-existing conditions like cardiovascular diseases.
The 19th Architecture Biennale in Venice is scheduled to run from May 10 to November 23, 2025, with the German pavilion officially opening on May 9. This event will serve as a crucial platform for dialogue on how architecture can respond to one of the most pressing issues of our time: climate change.
