For the second time, the Federal Republic of Germany is making a contribution
to the International Architecture Biennial (BIA) in São Paulo, Brazil
– after Venice it is the most important biennial on the theme world-wide.
The German contribution is entitled “Ready for Take-Off. Contemporary
German Export Architecture”, and created by Peter Cachola Schmal as General
Commissioner and Curator and Anna Hesse as Co-Curator, both of them from Deutsches
Architekturmuseum DAM.
The contribution was commissioned by the Federal Ministry of Transport, Building
and Urban Affairs (BMVBS) and the Federal Foreign Office (AA) and is also supported
by the Deutsche Bank Bauspar AG and the City of Frankfurt/Main.
