More than 200 architecture festivals swamp the global design world with a slew of under funded navel gazing ego-centric love-ins. Often impenetrable, frequently more concerned with press than participants and always pretentious.
Meanwhile a cacophony of galleries compete for attention and funding, obsessing over the quantity rather than quality of their audiences. The curatorial models of the art world are dragging architecture in a discursive cul-de-sac ruled by hype and high brow intellectualisation, separating it from prosaic realities of construction, engineering and ordinary people.
The era of the international architecture festival, the jet-setting celebrity curator and architecture’s love affair with the trappings of gallery culture must end. Let Venice sink!
