In april 2015 a boat sank in the mediterranean just 700 migrants drowned. His coast official has brought the wreck to the Venice Biennale in a but can the vessel really be chastised for is this just tasteless well it certainly gets people talking and that is very much in the spirit of this being on a now in its 58th edition which aims to open up new perspectives on the world is that succeeding lets take a look. Fog steam sacredness of the rolling down the facade of the central pavilion. The us official fog envelops the visitors at the entrance. Curator Ralph Rudolph promised powerful images and the show begins with one created by lara. Art that you can physically feel. Its rising from the bill because it was a great. Collecting all the faults of the visitors who are inside who are engaging just more. Of course as human beings were not just about big. In our heads we can live in the past in the future but in our bodies were always living with the rest of the exhibition is entitled may you live in Interesting Times what does that mean is that a chinese casts as is widely supposed to know thats a political myth and in this age of fake news and alternative facts this show urges us to take a closer look at the world around us and to take a stance. That was really. Bad for them. In a small cabinet is the diagram a created by dominicans are dispersed and joy brittle its amazingly realistic but where are the animals and other living beings. Those people more is actually based on photographs of somebody driest places on earth through the desert in chile work for 50 years so while it is looking like something here Science Museum also making a make about what could be the future of earth with Climate Change. Many di ramas used to offer an insight into the past stage scenes of everyday life this dire omma gives an insight into the future into death dollarama. Also to me is like the religious form of work for real. Rudolph as well. Many works which are easy to understand and yet have a lasting impact. Jimmy durham who won this years golden lion for Lifetime Achievement brought a slab of stone his part around the world he detailed. Me india. How its brought them to mom by our travels through the sewers into history. Through it becomes a. Story about Global Economic relationship. And so Office Building for you. Live. Weighing in at half a tonne dazzlingly beautiful but at the same time its a symbol of exploitation. Real love isnt one for spectacle nor does he believe in Political Correctness he thinks that our should be allowed to be an image that burns itself into the mind so that its not forgotten. And robots while being clean is surface soiled by the liquid that looks like blood over and over again. Was still work in the world. We experience that. For you. If you do it in. A relentless and desperate beast that might shatter the glass panels at any time programmed with 2 different motion sequences everything under control. The gloss over. Just the last its really every bit. The workers by the chinese artists when young and pen you who think that the essence of us. This is that it cannot be taken. Very close. To. John ramseys or. So i was. Think its possible to read this many different love. Artists. First free expression. Were going to society thats. Structured to confer expression. This is. Not dissimilar whats happening here. Like a murder crime comes back to haunt them. A machine perhaps can be controlled a human being cannot. Humans trying to think their own power in venice this path could lead perhaps to lithuanias pavillion to some outre with a deeper meaning. I cried so much when i heard that the corals want to exist anymore the girl sings. It the way it is the winner of this years golden lion for the best National Contribution to the Venice Biennale 0. 000. And see its a performative piece it was created by the artist trio. Of 5 a good i need to and lena. Its actually you want to think that its a nice conference between the softer underneath and the there is a lot. Of sides informal no there really loves on the slopes soon youll observe. A lot. Going on beneath the surface. External surface and something to look at 1st glance they might look like they cation years at the beach but the people in swimwear sing about the impact of everyday travel on our climate or about the mass extinction of species be a company text explains how culturally crises unfold today with the ease of a pop song a brilliant piece of work the way nia a worthy winner. Where to now the longest line is in front of the french pavilion. Is of course the way. Its movie in focus. Is it a metaphysical Pressure Cooker or a mystical palace whatever it is its a leering hotel you come on. Really good deep snow so this guy says. All of this is his have to go around the back. Then you want to enter for their grand entrance you know i wanted. Us to find you a way to let you. Know you know that you and just begun trip for the right. The right way and it is. Much more special for the back. Here we out. Weve already. So if you do if you want to know they need to get into the back and you just climb up the better you know and there is a good point you keep coming. In. Here we started to get out on to the british so we stick with a little break that. Busy busy busy all around us the detritus of civilization. Busy over pulled more creates miniature installations depicting the end of the world shes interested in the state of transition as well as status of destruction. Its a bit to day and loop current when its in me its quite close to reality and future in earth is it is the c. E. O. Of the well but. The work also brings to mind biblical imagery and noah after the flood released to dark to fine land. Who won the turner prize in 2013 travelled across france inviting artists and performers to come with her to venice to animate the french pavilion. If. Then we met a magician there you can start getting the table seeing the birds flying out of paintings and we couldnt believe it. There is i can reverse a retiree on the tree and then joined a a. It is amazing thing if a film journey with real discoveries digital surrealism continuing into the analog world. A marching band at the. Minute we met and i dont know where you go here is the father that we met you know i know that went in to tell. Me you know we didnt. Know fishes in the unconscious and discovers the state of the world magnificent but where should we go now after all this strangeness what can we expect at the german. Should suit up and run want to do something completely different with her head hidden the artist representing germany cant talk right now and has her own spokeswoman. Marking. The artists real name is no touch of solder head here she was born in iran and is now a professor in britain and this is a work of and to your representation she simplified her name. In working with this measure of conformity the artist wanted to confront the challenge of curating the german trevelyan in venice and the optimal form for doing this is integration with the optimized for it. Thats how she says you to have a man is not a pseudonym but an adaptation. So i dont i dont see what. The artist produced videos for the bee. But depict or journeys to Migrant Processing Centers in germany the centers have been called anchor centers anchor here is a euphemism for arrival decision return. The centers Service Holding camps until people are deported or choose to go back to their countries of origin voluntarily. In pulliam in italy the artist visited the spot where migrant harvest helpers were killed in a road accident. Not just as you to help them and also i chose that task as the to happen man because she inspires me very much for significance the way she works with different art forms different forms of knowledge and has successful transitions between music installations and the different sensual impatience that are impossible to come. Like at the french per 1000000000 here to the front entrance is closed. Inside there are rocks and a dam that reaches to the ceiling its powerful but permeable. Spot and cross all dams hold back water and the accumulation of pressure forms energy. In an arch against the pressure that they are expecting but if the pressure is too high or miscalculate his best. Its a simple image to illustrate some german peoples fear of being inundated with migrants. It doesnt seem as if this wall will hold for very long the other side reveals the simplicity of the installation. The structure is made of wood and cardboard whistle sound screech from the speakers. The soundtrack of protest. Message clearly received time to move on. These spaces are meant to be for all races you know for all tribes for all communities to speak the truth because its my shelley that. This statement could well be the most hope for the c. S. B. And. The dominance of the west is over and vanished to access from the global south especially from asia and africa are represented this year as never before. Impossible to miss magnificent self portraits by the South African photographer and activist. Who exposed various roles. Her gaze is seeking. Questioning. Demanding. We dont have much presentation at museums around the world so i think that its about time. Your asia specifically these spaces and also to take ownership of our voices to take ownership of our kaifs rights our own narrative visual narratives are really important and also for us to say thats we are proud of as black people. Proud and joyful this was one of the great emotional moments of this years be in how the so far ghana celebrated its 1st National Pavilion on venice an exhibition that is 120 years old the countrys 1st lady came to the inauguration as the top british architect to david adjaye and thats coming in roots and who designed the pavilion. This president wants to ensure that the gods are central to the development of a country central to tourism subtotal soft part of the country and to really get into the world the kind of incredible benevolence of a country of its people so thats why were here and not a small pavilion but a very large to really make it very large state with. Just designed plays on canadian building traditions creating an intimate space for the sensitive portraits by painter the net your dog watching. You. Answer photos by phyllis yabba on ghanas 1st professional female photographer she started taking pictures at the age of 14 and captured the Political Development in ghana which 957. 00 was one of the 1st african countries to gain independence from britain and that narrative informs ghanas 1st pavilion which is untitled ghana freedom. And such a powerful statement we have read you know what does that freedom mean what did it mean that in 1000 fifties that when he got out in the pan that he what does it mean now how you know how is that freedom grown or not gravity. What does it mean for us to be free. 6 artists from different generations offer their viewpoints on these questions. John a Conference Video installation was commissioned especially its about migration Climate Change and trust and environment. The works will be displayed in ghanas capital city opera after the beginning and will be accompanied by a series of debates around the gama freedom project. As all very well coming to badlands you know with the well heeled crowd and doing Something Like this but what the relevance and what resonance does. Actually happening within the country not just in our grasp on our meaning and in the kind of sound now where people you know maybe static large galleries but in communities across the country this is very much part of this place and. Thousands of kilometers live between ghana and india but only a few meters separate that tikka billions. The worlds biggest democracy is being represented in venice for only the 2nd time the government at the theme of the pavilion pays tribute to a National IconMahatma Gandhi this year is the 150th anniversary of his past. Every time a times of crisis is addressed then we do look up to gandhi so the idea was to really look at these artists and how theyre new to or very subtly you walk him through his ideas and pronounce values of i that believes nonviolence passive resistance minimal consumption ecological concerns and so on. In 1039 Mahatma Gandhi wrote his 1st letter to as of hitler addressing him as dear friend. That has decided to protect the original manuscript onto a smokescreen gandhis failed attempt to prevent a war 5 weeks before germany marched into poland remains very moving today. The center of the work is really the viewer who 1st reads the message in 1st person because it as is your friend friends about you would write to you for the sake of humanity and i think its a moment a reflection of your own position and how you might see in the words your own gestures or actions. Force a container called kani to gandhi is a point of reference she explores violence in public space Sexual Violence india is one of the most dangerous countries in the world for women. The artists works are wearable. Home. So this is for protection for the female body but the mccann ism is such that when youre reading that you can move too easily you know the hands move in a particular way the head moves in a particular way so youre trapped the body is trapped in a way so im talking of both the things the notion of protection and the motion of being trapped.
