Future Islands rides again - in Auckland, at the new Objectspace gallery in Ponsonby! If you missed seeing the exhibition at the Venice Architecture Biennale, now's your chance to see it at home. Opens tomorrow. Paperboy has the story on the new gallery (and its extended focus on architecture), below, with great photos by David Straight.

And that's a wrap, La Biennale di Venezia for 2016 is over. Grazie mille to all those who visited 'Future Islands' in Venice, we hope you enjoyed this experience of Aotearoa New Zealand in Venice. Many thanks, too, to the creative team that worked tirelessly to create the exhibition, all those who built models and islands, installed the exhibition, maintained it, volunteered to attend to it. This trip to Venice was funded by many architectural practices, private donors and companies - thanks to all of you for helping New Zealand get such a wonderful exhibition to Venice in 2016!
