The Venice Architecture Biennale has announced that Italian architect Carlo Ratti will be the curator for the year 2025. Ratti is the founder of Carlo Ratti Associati – CRA, the director of the Senseable City Lab at MIT, and a professor at both Politecnico di Milano and MIT. He has a wealth of curatorial experience with projects in various countries. He has previously served as a program director at the Strelka Institute for Media, Architecture, and Design in Moscow, a curator of the BMW Guggenheim Pavilion in Berlin, and a curator of the Future Food District Pavilion at Expo 2015 Milan.
“We architects like to think we are smart, but real intelligence is everywhere. The disembodied ingenuity of evolution, the growing power of computers, and the collective wisdom of the crowd. To face a burning world, architecture must harness all the intelligence around us. I am honored and humbled to have the opportunity to curate the Biennale Architettura 2025.” said Carlo Ratti.
