Republic of common ground : un-common news - un-common Venice

At the 13th International Architecture Exhibition in Venice, which has ‘Common Ground’ as its theme, Günther Vogt’s exhibition piece takes Venice itself as the starting point. It examines public space, understood as being the commons, caught in the conflict between resource and utilization. By interviewing the local residents and tourists in various public places all over Venice, the intention is to present a subjective perception of the local ‘resource’ and its regulatory framework in relation to everyday life.
