In addition to the main events at Giardini and Arsenale, scattered throughout Venice are collateral events, which are admitted by the curator, Christine Macel, and promoted by non-profit national and international bodies and institutions. Sometimes these events are even more fascinating than the ones in the main exhibition, and offer a chance to visit venues in Venice sometimes overlooked.
Viva Arte Viva! The 57th International Art Exhibition - La Biennale di Venezia will open to the public on May 13 and run through November 26, 2017.
Here are the 22 Collateral Events in this year's Biennale Arte:

ReplyDeleteThank you for this, Cat! They're now on my map!
ReplyDeleteOh, good, Helen! I think the adventure of finding each venue, and then seeing what the artists have done with the space, can be an inspiration.
