Saudi Arabia is undergoing a remarkable transformation, guided by Vision 2030, with investments in tourism, culture, technology, and sustainability reshaping the Kingdom's identity. As part of this cultural evolution, the Mujassam Watan Urban Sculpture Challenge, organized by Buildner in partnership with the Mujassam Watan Initiative (an initiative by Al Fozan Social Foundation), invites architects and artists to shape Saudi Arabia's evolving public spaces through contemporary sculptural design.

Happening throughout 8 days across 12 cities from north to south of Ecuador, the "no-bienal" biennale is holding its second edition from March 25 to April 1, 2025. Its unique name is devised to stand in opposition to the competitive structure that characterizes traditional biennials in the discipline. One of the objectives of this new edition is to demonstrate that there is unity in Ecuador, resisting the political strategies of division. Escuela Radical, the educational collective at the center of the event's organization, asserts that "it is not about centralization or decentralization, but simply about sharing without competing."
