Australia’s pavilion at the XXII Triennale di Milano has received the event’s premier award – the Golden Bee – in recognition of “the precision of their interpretation of the theme and the quality and relevance of the ideas they put forth.”
The 2019 triennial was curated by Paola Antonelli, a senior curator of architecture and design at The Museum of Modern Art (MoMA), New York, and is themed “Broken Nature: Design Takes on Human Survival.” The works on show in Milan comprise both pavilions commissioned by national bodies and a number of directly commissioned works.
The Australian pavilion, titled Teatro della Terra Alienata (Theatre of the Alienated Land), was curated by researchers from the University of Technology Sydney (UTS) Faculty of Design, Architecture and Building: Amaia Sanchez-Velasco, Jorge Valiente Oriol and Gonzalo Valiente (Grandeza Studio) and Miguel Rodriguez-Casellas .
Susanne Pini, Inés Benavente Molina and Stefano Cottini of Melbourne practice HDR provided architectural design support. The pavilion features the work of artists Cigdem Aydemir, Liam Benson, Madison Bycroft, Shoufay Derz, Janet Laurence and Patricia Reed.
Inés recalca: "Desde el estudio he colaborado con la UTS, Universidad Tecnológica de Sídney en el diseño del Pabellón de Australia en la Trienale de Milan. Curiosamente, 3 de los 4 directores creativos del Pabellón, son españoles de la ETSAM. El pabellón (que es pequeño 30m2) en fundamentalmente una pieza de video arte de 30 minutos. La trienal acaba en Septiembre".
