Description:

Exhibition in the US Pavilion, entitled The Architectural Imagination and curated by Cynthia Davidson and Mónica Ponce de León, featured a large array of drawings, models, videos, and interactive exhibits (including VR headsets) presenting the results of an open call to advance architectural solutions for four semi-abandoned industrial areas in Detroit. The selected sites, somehow symbolic of both the decline and the potential of regeneration, are those of Dequindre Cut, of an abandoned light industrial building in the Mexicantown area; of a former U.S. Postal Service sorting facility on the city’s riverfront, and of the disused Packard Automotive Plant. Among the over 250 designs submitted, the curators selected the projects by twelve US-based teams. The competition and exhibition was organized by the University of Michigan Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning. After being shown in Venice, the exhibit returned to Detroit, where it was shown at the Museum of Contemporary Art Detroit. (Source: Architects Newspaper; http://www.archpaper .com/)
