Marcos, it's fun: I live in Venezia, as you know, and I depend on you to know what happens in my own city. I had no idea of this project!
Chances are I'll manage not to see anything of it (you know how these things work, the more close to you is something the more easy is to miss it - just keep saying "I have all the time to take the boat and go to San Servolo... I'll do it tomorrow..."). Moreover, there's a lot of stuff in Venezia this June: a Bill Viola video at San Gallo ex-church (near San Marco, you know, your homonym :-P), an exhibition called Beuys/Barney at Guggenheim and more performance and art all around the place. If I manage to see something worthy I'll report back!
Thanks again for your work, Enr
You're welcome :). This year's Biennale looks amazing. Don't forget to post about everything you see! I'd love to see "Ocean without a shore". Maybe I should make a short trip to Venice ;)
