Venice: Biennale - Around Town - May 8

 
Venice: Palazzo Cesari Marchesi – The Pool NYC - A Palace with a View group exhibition.   The Pool NYC’s group exhibition, A Palace with a View, in the Palazzo Cesari Marchesi is on show until June 30. The exhibition is inspired by the traditional rooms found in Venetian Palaces and Villas such as the music room, the study, the portrait gallery, the library, the winter garden and the dining room. Each selected artist presents works that interpret the rooms of the palace in a contemporary language. The aim is to breath new life into an historical place through different media used by contemporary artists represented by paintings, drawings, prints, video, photographs and hand-carved sculptures.
