COethos
The Grenada Pavilion at 2145 Castello welcomes all visitors, Tuesday - Sunday, 11 am to 6 pm.
The title of the Grenada Pavilion, COethos, fits very well with the over arching theme of the curator Hashim Sarkis, “How will we live together?”. A video will be the main feature of the pavilion, highlighting the building process and thoughts of the Grenadian architect Bryan Bullen in the design and construction of the new Parliament Building. Accompanying the video, peristyle columns that mimic those around the Parliament building will contain text that explores other areas of needed regeneration of Grenada’s architecture, and possibilities for the future of the city of St. George’s. A team of people have assisted Bullen in this endeavor, including His Excellency Dr.Angus Friday, Grenada's former Ambassador to the United States and the United Nations.
Curators BABAU BUREAU current research focuses on the reuse and transformation of buildings and open spaces as a contemporary requirement and as a sustainable developpement strategy.
