Cover Me Softly: Beta 2024 Explores Architecture as an Act of Copying, Imitating, or Stealing
Briefly

"Timișoara's 2024 Beta Architecture Biennial, titled 'cover me softly', investigates the intricate dynamics of originality and influence, redefining our understanding of copying and imitation."
"The exhibition fully engages the historical 18th-century Garrison Command, transforming it into a vibrant participant that encourages dialogue rather than providing prescriptive solutions."
"Curator Oana Stănescu emphasizes that the exhibit doesn’t aim to present a cohesive narrative but rather sparks inquiries through multifaceted interpretations of the concept 'to cover' as shelter, transformation, repetition, protection, and mimicry."
"With over 50 installations and a mix of disciplines, the biennial invites participation and fosters discussions among architects, artists, and musicians, highlighting the event's inclusive and exploratory nature."
