BIENNALE d'ARCHITECTURE DE VENISE

Great days, from Palazzo Grassi Piotr Uklanski "Dancing Nazis" to the Biennale Architettura super-great curation from my favorite SANAA co-runner, Kazuyo Sejima.
From la Punta della Dogana Tadao Ando's brilliant transformation to the deceptive Calatrava bridge at Piazzale Roma.
From Palazzo Ducale and Peggy Guggenheim Collection classic stops and a few other arty spots, ending at the airport with Tommy Hilfiger great suitcases celebrating with elegance the Biennale closing

Too bad, Italians in their kingdom, which most reputated houses commission the best architects, like Prada with its Foundation in Milan by Rem Koolhas, or differently, like Benetton with its "Fabrica", close, in Treviso, by visionnary Renzo Piano, didn't have the idea to celebrate the Biennale with such allure !
