Exploring the Art Biennale 2024: highlights of the tour
If you have ever attended the Biennale, you’ll know that there are mainly two venues, the Giardini and the Arsenale venue. Wandering through them it’s an experience on its own.
In our itinerary, the meeting point will be the Giardini, the event’s heart since 1895. Here, you’ll walk through Napoleon’s magnificent creation, adorned with 29 national exhibition spaces representing a global mosaic of artistic expression.
Accompanied by our expert guide, you will uncover the narratives and cultural significance of each pavilion.
What will you see?
- Contemporary Section: Through installations, videos, performances, and artworks, this section focuses on the theme of the “foreigner,” embodying the essence of diversity and the feeling of being “out of place” in a globalized world.
