Save this picture!

As the 2016 Venice Biennale is set to begin this upcoming Saturday, May 28th, the first glimpses of the pavilions have begun to roll in through the social media wires. In addition to the event’s main exhibition, curated by this year's Pritzker Prize winner Alejandro Aravena, there will be 63 exhibitions held in country pavilions throughout the grounds responding to this year’s theme of “Reporting From the Front.” We've taken to Instagram to round up the best sneak peeks of the exhibitions coming together at architecture’s preeminent event—read on to take a look.

Korean Pavilion—"The FAR Game: Constraints Sparking Creativity"

Curated by Sung Hong Kim, Eungee Cinn, Keehyun Ahn, Seungbum Kim, Isak Chung and Daeun Jeong

베니스 비엔날레 오프닝 D-6. 일정상 전시 세팅에만 참여하고 오프닝을 못 보고 떠나게 되었다. 한국관 준비 상황은 다른 국가관들에 비해 비교적 여유롭다. 물론 선생님들과 동료분들이 열심히 준비하셨기 때문... 지난 겨울 그렇게 고민해서 만들었던 모형이 드디어 놓였음 🤔 #venezia#THE_FAR_GAME#TheFarGame2016#biennale_architettura_2016#biennalearchitettura2016#padiglionecorea2016venezia#koreanpavilion2016#Giardini_Biennale
