becoming is the name given to the exhibition proposal for 2018. Located among learning environments of Architecture and continuing with the appropriate and temporary character of the previous Spanish pavilion Unfinished,
becoming makes an allusion to a vector of the future, with a common educational background in the “EscuelaS”, which extends to other learning experiences in space and time, in dialogue with other disciplines.
Considering teaching practice as fully-fledged architectural practice, becoming shows Spanish architecture via the works of a superb set of home-grown architects – where women are currently more in number than men -, architecture which demands rethinking the conditions of learning environments in connection with the new emergencies of the present, abandoning predefined order schemes.
Within these fields of learning and investigating,
becoming focusses in the actions, speeches and works of the students, leaving to one side both the pedagogical methods which have enabled their development and the tools and actors involved.
becoming, via a large quantity of critical thinking put into practice abandoning predefined order schemes, intends to show the complexity of our operational logics, trying to transform them into systems as simple as the choreographies of day to day life itself to make them accessible to all citizens.
Far from the disciplinary autism, with no closed categories, no specific topics or excluding fields,
becoming intends to be an experience which opens the door to an unknown atmosphere where the students build up the conflicts, the needs and other ways of living the world.
For that purpose,
becoming will be developed simultaneously both in the physical pavilion and the virtual one via the web – where all accepted contributions will be welcomed – in an increased space-time in continuous transformation.
