PORCH: An Architecture of Generosity’ Exhibition to Represent the United States at the 2025 Venice Architecture Biennale
The Department of State announces the selection of The Fay Jones School of Architecture and Design, University of Arkansas, in partnership with Design Connects and Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art to represent the United States at the 19th Venice Architecture Biennale in 2025 with their exhibition, “PORCH: An Architecture of Generosity.”
The exhibition will focus on the representation of the United States through the contemporary manifestation of the porch in American architecture – a quintessential constructed place that is at once social and environmental, tectonic and performative, hospitable and intimate, generous and democratic. The porch is an unheralded American archetype, found at all scales in cities and towns, in every region of the country. Through an exhibition design of multiple scales, experiences, media, and engagements, the commissioners and design team intend to spotlight the character, value, and contemporary purpose of the porch in American culture across the nation.
The Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs supports and manages the official U.S. participation at the Venice Arts and Architecture Biennale. U.S. representation at this global event ensures that the excellence, vitality, and diversity of the arts in the United States are effectively showcased abroad and provides an opportunity to engage foreign audiences to increase mutual understanding.

There is a lot of pro-Putin bias in the Western world. We aim to dispel this “macho” propaganda and reveal true colors of his regime: murder, intimidation, industrialized kleptocracy and well-funded russian fascism propaganda machines. We were born in Russia, we have lost friends to this murderer… we see how he “zombifies” most and intimidates […]
