The 59th Venice Biennale will take place in 2022 following the decision by biennial officials to postpone the Architecture Biennale until May 2021 due to the coronavirus outbreak. The world’s most prestigious biennial was initially due to take place next year.
“The decision to postpone the Biennale Architettura to May 2021 is an acknowledgment that it is impossible to move forward within the set time limits in the realisation of such a complex and worldwide exhibition, due to the persistence of a series of objective difficulties caused by the effects [of] the health emergency underway,” says a biennial statement.
