Before the Future is the first publication created by the Pavilion of Culture editorial team in collaboration with IST Publishing. It marks the collective return of the Pavilion of Ukraine to the Biennale Architettura after a nine-year absence. In the accompanying program, two spaces of the Pavilion—the grass-covered defensive earthworks in the Giardini and the dark, enclosed shelter in the Arsenale—were given to the architects and practitioners from various fields to raise questions—questions about telling stories during wartime, about the value of collective action in the face of threat, about the multitude of topics that unite architects in Ukraine today, about questions that must be asked today, before the future. The publication finilize and present the work of five temporary collectives and their five changing exhibitions created over a period of four months in Venice during the Biennale.
