Albania: 'potential moments of unrealised futures'





 
The 'artistic narratives' by Edi Hila and Adrian Paci at the Albanian exhibit at the Biennale of Venice illustrate monuments intended to communicate the multi-architectonic language of the countryside that, transitioning from a turbulent past, tries to assimilate the aesthetics of Western Europe. Whether the objectives of the canvases are straight forward, their compositions are interesting. Even though they are not the typical medium for architectural discourse, they do make an interesting expo in the dedicated space in the Arsenale.
