The Ministry of Culture of the Government of Mexico and the National Institute of Fine Arts and Literature (INBAL) have come together to create the Mexican Pavilion exhibition titled “Displacements” (“Desplazamientos”) at the 17th International Architecture Exhibition Venice Biennale 2021. The curatorial work was led by Isadora Hastings, Natalia de La Rosa, Mauricio Rocha, and Elena Tudela.
‘Displacements’ is a selection of 12 projects that proposes solutions on how architecture can help us in the midst of cultural, linguistic, and territorial diversity, opinions, criticisms, practices, histories, and different profiles, in response to the question: “How will we live together?” The exhibitions explores ways of designing and building spaces of belonging, reconciliation, narration, exchange, recovery, assimilation, forgiveness and resistance derived from displacement.
