Summary

Argentina reaffirms its participation in the Venice Biennale with an invitation to critically rethink the territory as a collective construction, which simultaneously addresses concepts of humanity and democratic spirit. On this occasion, and in a geographical sense, 'Horizontal Vertigo' is the concept of the Argentine Pavilion, which proposes a difference from the previous Argentine experience, 'ExperimentAR, Poéticas desde la Frontera', in relation to the potentiality of the link that we perceive between architecture and society. The proposal, winner of the Curatorship Competition for the Argentine Pavilion at the Venice Architecture Biennale 2018, is a project by the team made up of authors Pablo Anzilutti, Federico Cairoli, Francisco Garrido and Javier Mendiondo; the collaborators: Rodrigo Bordiga, Juan Juárez, Pino Sollazzo, Alejandro Trucco and Federico Viudez; María José Ilari and Paulo Chiarella (landscaping); and Dario Bergero (Graphic Design). Description by the authors. Horizontal vertigo is an invitation to rethink the territory as a collective construction, and architecture as the discipline capable of facilitating unexpected generosity in each project. Horizontal vertigo investigates the concepts of humanity and democratic spirit that Freespace proposes, proposing a transversal dialogue between geographical spaces and architectural places.The horizontality of the territory -abstract or real- refers to drawing a panorama of Argentine architecture in terms of continuity and disciplinary reflection, highlighting the possibility of immensity. Horizontal vertigo runs through the folds of our geography, as a cartography of Argentine architecture in recent decades, from the return of democracy to the present day. During this period, highlighted by the turn of the century, a set of works with a diverse program and a varied scale have been produced throughout the national territory. The records of these productions belong to works of a public nature that respond to the curatorial slogan of the 16th Venice International Architecture Biennale. They are drawings that express "the diversity, specificity and continuity in architecture based on people, place, time, history, to sustain the culture and relevance of architecture on this dynamic planet" (Yvonne Farrell and Shelley McNamara, Freespace)
