The Egyptian Pavilion - ReframingBack/ImperativeConfrontations
Commissioner: Ahmad Hilal
Curator: Ministry of Culture
Exhibitors: Eslam Zenbaey, Luca Borlenghi, Gabriele Secchi, Mostafa Salim


Egypt. A team of Italo-Egyptian architects exhibit stories of architecture in simple pure materials. ReframingBack/ImperativeConfrontations is trying to explore various stories of architecture narrating the difficulties and challenges inside the Egyptian built environment. Going beyond the question of what is the story about? to how was the story written? Considering re-framing back “stories” where architecture did, is and will make changes as preexisting conditions even before being a product that contribute to any transformational paradigm within their existing confrontations and challenges. RB//IC is an odyssey that anchors many re-framed successful stories as icons and a platform for appraisals chapters that are still fighting to be re-framed and needs hope to carry on.
