Liane Lefairve: Do you think this Biennale did much to enhance the world’s awareness of the kind of urban issues you are involved in?
America Zabala-Vera: Exhibitions lead in rare occassions to revolutions and I think Ricky Burdett was well aware of that but I think the exhibition on cities did a good thing to start the discussion. The conflict of space that exist in cities existed at the Biennale this year as well and made everyone ask themselves what the space is for. I think the exhibition showed the complex problems but provided no answers. And I missed the issue of participatory democracy.
