Public without rhetoric

de Nuno Brandão Costa, Sérgio Mah

Public without Rhetoric' brings together 12 public building projects created by Portuguese architects, whose construction was completed between 2007 and 2017, a decade ravaged by the severe financial and economic crisis. The chosen works highlight the Portuguese architects marked generalist nature and cross-generational excellence, in an affirmation of architecture as a celebration of the experience of public space.00Exhibition: Portuguese Pavilion, 16th Architecture Biennale, Venice, Italy (26.05. - 25.11.2018).
