Venice Biennale - Alle Tese Theatre — Attraction in Venice

La Biennale di Venezia HISTORY 1895-2023 129 YEARS OF HISTORY La Biennale di Venezia has been for 130 years one of the most prestigious cultural institutions in the world. Established in 1895, La Biennale had an attendance of over 800,000 visitors at the Art Exhibition in 2022. The history of the La Biennale di Venezia dates back from 1895, when the first International Art Exhibition was organized. In the 1930s new festivals were born: Music, Cinema, and Theatre (the Venice Film Festival in 1932 was the first film festival in history). In 1980 the first International Architecture Exhibition took place, and in 1999 Dance made its debut at La Biennale.

La Biennale di Venezia was established in 1895 and is today acknowledged as one of the most prestigious cultural institutions. La Biennale di Venezia stands at the forefront of research and promotion of new contemporary art trends and organizes events in all its specific Departments: Art (1895), Architecture (1980), Cinema (1932), Dance (1999), Music (1930), and Theatre (1934) – alongside research and training activities.

The history of La Biennale di Venezia is documented in its Historical Archives located at Marghera Venice and in its Library at the Giardini’s Central Pavilion. The International Art and Architecture Exhibitions have had a new structure since 1998. In recent years, La Biennale promoted new Educational activities, training programmes (Biennale College), conferences and panels in its headquarters at Ca’ Giustinian.

Since 1998 the Art Biennale and the Architecture Biennale are no longer simply exhibitions organized with the contribution of National Pavilions, but rest instead on three pillars: · The exhibitions by National Pavilions, each with its own curator and project · The International Exhibition by the Biennale curator, chosen specifically for this task · Collateral Events, approved by the Biennale curator This exhibition model has led to a pluralism of expressions: in order to accommodate them the exhibition spaces have grown for strategic needs, including an ambitious restoration of the Arsenale area which is still going on. The Art Biennale has been recognised as the world leader in contemporary art exhibitions and the countries participating have increased from 59 (in 1999) to 86 in 2017. The Architecture Biennale has also been recognised as the best in the world.

The Venice International Film Festival at the Lido (the oldest in the world dating to 1932) has remained a prestigious event worldwide due to the quality of its selection and the recent refurbishing of its historic buildings and technological supplies.

The relationship with the local community has been strengthened through educational activities and guided visits, with the participation of a growing number of schools from the Veneto region and beyond. This spreads the creativity on the new generation (3,000 teachers and 30,000 pupils involved in 2014). These activities have been supported by the Venice Chamber of Commerce. A cooperation with Universities and research institutes making special tours and stays at the exhibitions has also been established. In the three years from 2012-2014, 227 universities (79 Italian and 148 international) have joined the Biennale Sessions project.

In all sections there have been more research and production opportunities addressed to the younger generation of artists, directly in contact with recognised teachers; this has become more systematic and continuous through the international project Biennale College, now running in the Dance, Theatre, Music, and...

This place is a really interesting example of how an abandoned building can be brought back to life. Inside, there’s a theater that’s been nicely rebuilt — the old architecture mixes well with modern design. We weren’t too impressed overall, though. It took us a long time to even find how to get in, and the spectacle itself was so bad that we left after 30 minutes. But the performance isn’t the fault of the place — the theater space itself is actually cool...

Arte e cultura, innovazione e desajin, io ho trovato molto bello il padiglione Italia e Venezia ai giardini della biennale mentre per l'Arsenalle ho trovato molti spunti interessanti del fai da te, Inovazionevrearecon cose che già abbiamo, avendo un bellissimo desajin più moderno e innovativo con piccoli accorgimenti, solamente visitando la biennale di Venezia si può trarre arricchire la cultura della persona che poi troverà spunti per creare un arte personale.
