Alan Butler Representing Ireland at the 17th Venice Architecture Biennale

Green on Red Gallery is delighted to share the announcement that our gallery artist, Alan Butler as part of the ANNEX collective, was recently selected to represent Ireland at the 17th International Architecture Exhibition in Venice, Biennale Architettura 2020. ANNEX is an international research and design collective that  is comprised of a team of architects, artists, and urbanists, which includes Sven Anderson, David Capener, Donal Lally, Clare Lyster and Fiona McDermott in addition to Alan Butler. The theme of the 2020 Biennale, chosen by its chief curator, Hashim Sarkis, is "How will we live together?" and serves as the inspiration behind each participating nation's exhibition. ANNEX's exhibition will be entitled Entanglement and is said to respond to the relationships between architecture and data infrastructures and is deeply linked to how these relationships manifest in Ireland's own architectural landscape. The 17th International Architecture Exhibition is set to run from August 29th to November 29th, after which the Entanglement exhibition is set to tour Ireland in 2021.
