The Momentum of a Decision Exhibition: Confronting Housing Crisis and Homelessness at Triennale Milano

This exhibition, part of the XXIV Triennale Milano, addresses the escalating housing crisis and homelessness, using Prague as a case study. It examines the issue through five thematic pillars: public space, housing as a right, the people affected, the social system, and the economy, advocating for collective responsibility.

The exhibition "The Momentum of a Decision," presented by the Museum of Decorative Arts in Prague as part of the XXIV Triennale Milano's "Inequalities" theme, confronts the pervasive issue of homelessness and the escalating housing crisis. Using Prague as a conceptual laboratory, the exhibition argues that homelessness is a symptom of a dysfunctional housing system that requires treatment rather than overlooking individuals as failures. The presentation is structured around five core pillars: The Public Space, exploring how housing unaffordability shapes urban environments; Housing, questioning whether it should be an unconditional human right; People, identifying those most at risk of unaffordability and homelessness; The Social System, assessing its role in perpetuating or alleviating inequality; and The Economy, examining investment priorities and their impact. The curators emphasize that addressing these interconnected issues is a shared responsibility of civil society, encouraging active involvement and informed interest to transform unequal conditions into a more favorable environment for all.

The exhibition is part of the XXIV Triennale Milano, which runs from May to November 2025 at the Palazzo dell'Arte in Milan. Specific ticketing information is not detailed on this page, but visitors are directed to the Triennale Milano's general event details for access information.
