“Biennale, but not just in Venice. At Casa Exibart, we also invited Sofia Baldi Pighi and Emma Mattei, two of the curators of the first edition of the Malta Biennale. We talked with them about the concept of biennial events as platforms for dialogue among artists, local communities, and various professionals. These events are meant to engage specialists to reflect on broad current issues from multiple perspectives.”
From the MoCA – Museum of Contemporary Art in Shanghai to the Civic Museums of Palazzo Buonaccorsi in Macerata, to the Institute of Radical Imagination, and then a tour of the Lagoon, between a Pavilion and an independent bookstore, and many more perspectives, all gathered at Casa Exibart. During the preview days of the 60th International Art Exhibition of Venice, from April 17 to 20, 2024, our favorite magazine transcended the page, becoming a place of debate and discussion. In the welcoming spaces just steps away from the Rialto Bridge, we met numerous guests to discuss current cultural topics, ongoing projects, and future ambitions. We captured the impressions of those who visit the city during this important event and those who live there every day. Starting today, you can listen to the voices of the protagonists, in dialogue with Yasmin Riyahi, to relive the atmosphere of the opening and to expand the conversation to other topics and discover new or unexpected initiatives.
