Commissioner, curator:
Lisa Freiman
Chair of the Indianapolis Museum of Art’s contemporary art department

Allora & Calzadilla will create new site-specific works that will "analyze contemporary geopolitics through the lens of spectacular nationalistic and competitive enterprises such as the Olympic Games, international commerce, war, the military-industrial complex and even the Biennale itself". The exhibition will include six new works developed specifically for the United States pavilion.
