Banchetto: 'A Play in Three Acts'
Venice, FL, United States
Pidgin Perfect were proud to be selected, alongside Do Architecture, GRAS Studio and Stone Opera as the Scottish delegation to the Venice Architecture Biennale in 2012 to showcase the cutting edge ideas and innovative approaches to architecture practice that have emerged in recent years in Scotland.
The project, titled ‘Critical Dialogues’, was directed by Jonathan Charley and played with popular themes of alternative urban practice: the politics of community
engagement; the ludic dimensions of architecture; the celebration of the architecture of everyday life, and; the investigation of different ways of seeing and mapping.
‘Banchetto: A Play in Three Acts’ was driven by Pidgin Perfect’s commitment to engaging communities normally excluded
from the design process.
Act One - a tour of the Biennale Giardini site for a group of local residents who discussed their opinions and ideas whilst viewing the pavilions.
Act Two - Pidgin Perfect held a ‘theatrical’ open air dinner in the Castello neighbourhood where local residents, artists, architects, curators and activists ate , drank and talked architecture.
Act Three - Exposition with screenings of edited footage and documentation of the weeks actions and events.
The project also received the prestigious Royal Scottish Academy Medal for Architecture in 2012.
