  • Under the theme The Architectural Plant, the Bienal de Venecia 23 invited 37 emerging architecture practices in Mexico to carry out an architectural intervention on a plant and complement it with its architectural representation in a plan drawing and a brief descriptive text of the piece.

    The jury, made up of the architects Fernanda Canales, Jimena Hogrebe, Max von Werz, and the landscape designer Tonatiuh Martínez, reviewed the 37 proposals and selected the winner of the Golden Cat, as well as second and third place and three honorable mentions.

    The exhibition was open from August 16 to 19 at Venecia 23, Colonia Juárez. Subsequently, the show traveled to Archivo Diseño y Arquitectura, remaining from August 21 to September 1, 2018.
