在第十六届威尼斯建筑双年展中，爱沙尼亚建筑中心带来了“脆弱的古迹”主题展。该展于2018年5月26日至11月25日在威尼斯爱沙尼亚国家馆中展出。在该展览中，三位策展人Laura Linsi，Roland Reemaa 和 Tadeáš Říha探索了纪念碑建筑所陈述的表面意向和隐含的政治倾向之间的关系：从凯旋柱到其下方的路面，以及介于这两者之间的一切。

The Estonian Centre of Architecture presents the exhibition Weak Monument in the Pavilion of Estonia at the 16th International Architecture Exhibition – La Biennale di Venezia (May 26th – November 25th, 2018). Estonian Pavilion curators, Laura Linsi, Roland Reemaa and Tadeáš Říha, explore the spectrum between the explicit representation of the monument and the implicit politics of everyday architectures: from the triumphal column to the pavement beneath it, through all that is in-between.

该展的主题“脆弱的古迹”是一个修辞手法。它将政治比喻成可以建造出来的形态，并从另一个方面引发人们的思考。爱沙尼亚国家馆位于 Garibaldi街，介于双年展两个Giardini和Arsenale两个展览场地之间。在这栋巴洛克风格的Santa Maria Ausiliatrice教堂遗址中，“脆弱的古迹”将为来访者带来一个充满纪念意义，又破败不堪的空间体验。

The title itself – Weak Monument – is an oxymoron, a rhetorical device that offers fresh perspectives on how to recognize politics in any built form. Located at the edge of Via Garibaldi, between the Biennale venues of Giardini and Arsenale, the Pavilion of Estonia – Weak Monument will transform the rooms of the former baroque church of Santa Maria Ausiliatrice (Fondamenta San Gioacchin) that offer remnants of a monumental yet decadent spatial symmetry and hierarchy.

“脆弱的古迹”邀请来访者拓展思维，去思考怎么样，在哪里和为什么建筑会带有政治性。展览所在的Santa Maria Ausiliatrice教堂遗址如今被一面墙壁和地面围合出新的空间。一块与乡镇道路相同的地面铺装介入到该空间内，混凝土墙壁将该展览区域一分为二。作为支撑的脚手架结构体被迫拥挤在这栋巴洛克风格建筑中，创造出别有意味的空间，邀请来访者们穿行游览。

Weak Monument invites visitors to expand their understanding of how, where and why architecture can be recognized as political. The former church of Santa Maria Ausiliatrice is overtaken by a pavement and a wall. A suburban interlocking pavement covers its coloured marbles, while a monument-like concrete wall divides the exhibition space in two. The everyday and the exceptional structures are forced to occupy the same baroque interior. A scene is formed, which invites the visitor to step onto, and through it.

这面原本封闭的混凝土墙壁被打断。人们在此处穿行，看到其后的脚手架结构和华丽的细节装饰。继续前行，来访者会看到众多来自爱沙尼亚和欧洲的大陆的古迹照片，绘画和模型如同目录编排一样在此处展示。

The concrete wall, which initially appears grand and impenetrable, can be crossed. Behind it, its internal structure and richness of materials unfold. In this transitional space, a broad collection of weak monuments is unveiled. Estonian, as well as European examples, are showcased through existing and newly commissioned photographs, through drawings and models, and in the catalogue.

“脆弱的古迹”通过对比建筑的脆弱性和纪念性，检测出建筑的政治性。纪念碑徘徊在建筑的边缘，是一种直接体现其核心价值的建造实体，它在某种程度上是权利的象征。

Weak Monument examines architecture’s capacity to be political, by juxtaposing two antithetical notions – weakness and monumentality. Monuments reside on the margin of the architectural discipline while directly embodying some of its most central qualities. Monuments represent power explicitly, but not universally.
