BIENNALE VENEZIA 2019: WHAT ARE YOU MISSING RIGHT NOW<\/h1>\n

\"Biennale<\/a><\/p>\n

The Biennale<\/strong> started on May 11th<\/sup><\/span> and we have already found the most interesting features between Arsenale<\/span> and Giardini<\/span> in which \u201cplurality of voices<\/em>\u201d \u2013 as president Paolo Baratt<\/em>a explained \u2013 have found their places. But don\u2019t worry, you have still time until November 24th<\/sup><\/span> to see them!<\/p>\n

LIBERTY\/LIBERT\u00c0 – USA<\/h2>\n

\"Biennale<\/a><\/p>\n

What Martin Puryear<\/strong> is trying to do with his installation titled \u201cSwallowed Sun (Monstrance and Volute)<\/em>\u201d is a recollection of American\u2019s past and present conflicts<\/em>: the eclipse of values is metaphorically perceived through the covering of the pavilion\u2019s neoclassical fa\u00e7ade with a wooden screen; racial and historical issues<\/span> are been awoken with a tribute in form of shackles stuck in a white column to an African-American slave who worked for Jefferson and bore children for him.<\/p>\n

\"Biennale<\/a><\/p>\n

GHANA FREEDOM \u2013 GHANA<\/h2>\n

\"Biennale<\/a><\/p>\n

With the title coming from a song by E.T. Mensah<\/em> on Ghana reaching independence in 1957, six artists – Felicia Abban, John Akomfrah, El Anatsui, Lynette Yiadom-Boakye, Ibrahim Mahama<\/strong>, and Selasi Awusi Sosu<\/strong> \u2013 put together an exhibition that \u201cexplores how that freedom has manifested itself and how it\u2019s evolved in different forms and patterns over time<\/em>\u201d.<\/p>\n

\"Biennale<\/a><\/p>\n

The impressive installation, going from tapestries and films to self-portrait and paintings, has been considered even more remarkable, thanks to architect David Adjaye<\/em><\/span> who designed the interconnected room with curved walls \u2013 known in Ghana as \u201cparametric elliptoid\u201d \u2013 made with real Ghanian earth, shipping mud directly from Africa to establish a physical and solid connection to their roots.<\/p>\n

\"Biennale<\/a><\/p>\n

NEITHER NOR: THE CHALLENGE TO THE LABYRINTH – ITALY<\/h2>\n

\"Biennale<\/a><\/p>\n

\"Biennale<\/a><\/p>\n

Three Italian artists take part in the Italian pavilion – Enrico David, Chiara Fumai,<\/strong> and Liliana Moro<\/strong> \u2013 who took inspirations from the specific labyrinthic setting<\/em> that Venice displays: this installation wants to exclude a linear route for a more introspective space<\/span> in which the visitors can really immerse themselves into, getting lost into the exhibition\u2019s world.<\/p>\n

\"Biennale<\/a><\/p>\n

CHROMO SAPIENS \u2013 ICELAND<\/h2>\n

\"Biennale<\/a><\/p>\n

A colorful tangle of synthetic hair<\/em> is the raw material that artist Hrafnhildur Arnardo\u0301ttir<\/strong> used in her installation: not only visually strong, but the exhibition also offers a multisensory approach<\/span>, a cavernous journey through space that really makes the visitors reconsider how the use of different materials changes their perspective of space<\/span>.<\/p>\n

\"Biennale<\/a><\/p>\n

MICROWORLD BY LIU WEI – ARSENALE<\/h2>\n

\"Biennale<\/a><\/p>\n

Enormous aluminum plates take the form of molecules <\/em>and elementary particles<\/em> that visitors can observe from a glass partition: the difference between the diverse scales<\/span> and the sense of dimension<\/span> is the effect that the artist Liu Wei<\/strong> wants to create in them, along with the feeling of being microscopic creatures<\/em> against the world.<\/p>\n
