Lecture 1.
Venice Biennale: from 1895 to the present
During the lecture we’ll look at the history of the Venice Biennale from its founding to the present day. I’ll demonstrate how the concept of the biennale has changed, which artists have been represented in the most iconic exhibitions since the 19th century. The main emphasis will be on biennales that took place in the 21st century. We’ll analyze the curatorial concepts of recent exhibitions and the specifics of the main exhibitions at the Arsenale. We’ll also look at the features of the exhibitions of the national pavilions presented in the Giardini Gardens.
