The Architect’s Newspaper received a notice from a group of women architects calling for a public action at the Venice Architecture Biennale on May 25. Our reporters will also be on the scene to cover the action.

“We are a group of international women (diverse in terms of ages, background and professional roles) who have decided to gather on Friday 25 at 11.00 am in the Giardini in the main walk along the Stirling Pavilion for a flash mob to stand, read a statement about women in architecture, as women in other fields such as cinema or politics have done, because it is important to raise consciousness in our field.

We propose that you come on Friday and join us. Please bring a fan with you as a sign and also because of the hot weather!”
