We are pleased to announce that our represented artists Olga Amaral and Miguel Ángel Rojas have been invited to the 60th International Art Exhibition of La Biennale di Venezia, titled “Stranieri Ovunque - Foreigners Everywhere", curated by Adriano Pedrosa. 

 

As a guiding principle, the Biennale Arte 2024 has favored artists who have never participated in the International Exhibition—though a number of them may have been featured in a National Pavilion, a Collateral Event, or in a past edition of the International Exhibition. Special attention is being given to outdoor projects, both in the Arsenale and in the Giardini, where a performance program is being planned with events during the pre-opening and closing weekend of the 60th Exhibition.

 

«The expression Stranieri Ovunque - explains Adriano Pedrosa - has several meanings. First of all, wherever you go and wherever you are you will always encounter foreigners— they/we are everywhere. Secondly, that no matter where you find yourself, you are always truly, and deep down inside, a foreigner»

 

This event will open to the public from Saturday April 20 to Sunday November 24, 2024, at the Giardini and the Arsenale. The pre-opening will take place on April 17, 18 and 19; the awards ceremony and inauguration will be held on 20 April 2024.
