A collector and founder of ThyssenBornemisza Art Contemporary (T-B A21), an organisation that supports ‘unconventional’ contemporary art projects, Francesca von Habsburg is an ever-present figure on the international biennial scene, sponsoring talks, artworks and artrelated events. Following a collaboration between architect David Adjaye and artist Olafur Eliasson in 2006, the second T-B A21 pavilion (titled The Morning Line), for which artist Matthew Ritchie teamed up with architects Aranda\Lasch, was unveiled in October at the 3rd Seville Biennial.
