Grenada 2025
The pavilion aims to define the optimal requirements for a library that is both future-oriented and integrated into the country’s social, cultural, and environmental context.
Title: Echoes of Knowledge: Reawakening the National Library
Commissioner: Susan Mains
Curators: Luisa Flora, Fulvio Caputo
Exhibitors: Irina Kostka, Giulia Conti, Alessandro Virgilio Mosetti
Curators Fulvio Caputo and Luisa Flora, longstanding advocates for Grenada’s presence in Venice, have proposed a study, research, and design process that aims to define the optimal requirements for a library that is both future-oriented and integrated into the country’s social, cultural, and environmental context. Their initiative combines architecture, community, and sustainability and, most importantly, actively involves Grenadians through interviews, surveys, and invitations for iconographic suggestions. The initiative highlights the value of public libraries as cultural infrastructures that promote inclusion, intellectual freedom, and lifelong learning. Public libraries are not merely repositories of books—they strengthen the social fabric and serve as symbols of shared knowledge, history, and imagination.
