Bald. Steam the crippens of a rolling down the facade of the central pavilion. The us official fog envelops with visitors at the entrance curator. Ralph reed off 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 in this work. Of course as human beings were not just about the. You know its we can live in the past or the future or whatever our bodies will always be 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 now 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. Live by people. In a small cabinet is a diagram a created by dominicans artists 1st enjoyed brutal its amazingly realistic but where are the animals and other living beings. Those people more is actually based on photographs of somebody drives places on earth through the desert in chile where theres a few. So while it is looking like something you know a Science Museum also making a big about what could be the future of earth with Climate Change. Many die ramas used to offer an insight into the past stage scenes of everyday life this dire oma gives an insight into the future into death of his daughter rama. Also to me is like the earliest form of oratory of. Rudolph has so many works which. So easy to understand and yet have a lasting impact.

And 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. The robots wiping clean a surface soil by a liquid that looks like blood over and over again. What it is to work in the world its actually very furious she did. It for you. If you do it in. A relentless and desperate that might shatter the glass panels at any time programmed with 32 different motion sequences everything under control. The gloss over the. Yes the screen to redo. The work is by the chinese artist so young and paying you who think that the essence of us is that. I cannot be taking. It very close. To. John ramseys are. So i was. Think its possible to read this many different love. Artists. First free expression. Live in a society thats. Structured to confer expression. This is. Not dissimilar whats happening here. Like a mantra whose crime comes back to haunt them. A machine perhaps can be controlled a human being cannot. Humans try to think that one puff in venice this path could lead perhaps to lithuania pavilion to some accra with a deeper meaning. I cried so much when i heard that the corals want to exist anymore the girl sings.

Where to now the longest line is in front of the french but really. Is it worth the wait. To. Get smokey and folk here to visit a metaphysical Pressure Cooker or a mystical palace whatever it is its a leering hope for you become a. Really good dictionary so this sort of. Full of visits his have to go around the back. And then you want to enter for their grand entrance you know i wanted.

So if you if you want to know they need to get into the back you know just climb up the better go in there is a good point you see coming. From almost anything. Here we started to get out on to the british serious take a day. Break then. Busy busy busy busy all around us the detritus of civilization. d 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 ability to get down and look green when its me its quite close to reality a future in their Affairs Minister here. To help the well but. The work also brings to mind biblical imagery and noah after the flood released to dive to find land. And our poor board who won the turner prize in 2013 travelled across france inviting artists and performers to come with her to venice to animate the french privilege and. If. Bend we met a magician there can start getting the table good seeing the birds flying out of paintings and we couldnt believe if there is i can we. We carry on the tree joined a a and it is amazing i think if a film journey with real discoveries digital surrealism continuing into the analog world. A marching band. I mean that we met and i dont know where you go here is the far right spend that we met you know you know that went with them. Then you know we did it is. No paul fishes in the unconscious and discovers the state of the world magnificent but where should we go now after all this strangeness welcome we expect at the german. Motel 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. Could marking. The artists real name is not rational saw that are healthy and she was born in iran and is now a professor in britain and this is a work of anti representation she simplified her name. And what is it 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 of the up to my form. Thats how has he to happen man is not a pseudonym an adaptation. So i dont see what. The artist produced videos for the be another the. The picture journeys to Migrant Processing Centers in germany. Centers have been called anchor centers anchor here is a euphemism for arrival decision return. The Center ServiceHolding 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 he. Kept not just as you to help them and also i chose that task as you to happen man because she inspires me very much for significance mcnish seen the way she works with different on forms different forms of knowledge and has successful transitions between music installations and the different sensual impressions that are impossible. 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. Its about spam drops all build dams hold back water and the accumulation of pressure forms energy says they live 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 with screech from the speakers the sound. 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 martially that. This statement could well be the most so for this years be an. The dominance of the west is over in venice 2 artists 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. Youre asia specifically spaces and also to take ownership of our voices to take ownership of our kaifs write our own narrative visual narratives of 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 anonymous are from ghana celebrated its 1st National Pavilion in venice an exhibition that has 120 years old the countrys 1st lady came to the inauguration as the top british architect to david adjaye and thats canadian 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 social to the soft part of the country and communicating to the world because of incredible benevolence of a country and 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 good nation building traditions creating an intimate space for the sensitive portraits by painter the net your dog and watching. The. Controversies by philistia bon gammas 1st professional female photographer she started taking pictures at the age of 14 and captured the Political Developments in ghana which in 157. 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 freedom you know what does that freedom mean what did it mean that in 1057 when he got out in the pan that he what does it mean now how you know how is that freedom grow or not granted 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 environments. The works will be displayed in ghanas capital city opera after the begin on it and will be accompanied by a series of debates around the gonna freedom project. Its all very well coming to venice you know with the well heeled crowd and doing Something Like this but what relevance and what resonance that they actually have. Within the country not just in our grasp on our meaning and in the kind of silent hour where people you know maybe static large galleries but in communities across the country this is very much part of this press asked. Thousands of kilometers line between ghana and india but only a few meters separate that type of aliens the worlds biggest democracy is being represented in venice for only the 2nd time the government set the thing the pavilion pays tribute to a National IconMahatma Gandhi this year is the 150th anniversary of his path. Every time measure times of president s then we do look up to gandhi so the idea was to really look at these artists and how theyre new to all very subtly he walked him through his ideas and pronounced values of either peanuts nonviolence passive resistance many milkens option ecological concerns and so on. In 1039 Mahatma Gandhi wrote his 1st letter to as of hitler addressing him as dear friend. Just as khaled has decided to project 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 the writer says dear friend friends are going to be right to you for the sake of humanity and i think its a moment a reflection of your own position and how you may change the word your own gestures or actions. Force a container called kami 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. So this is protection for the female body but the mccann ism is such that when youre reading it 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 with the things the notion of protection and the motion of being trapped.

For whites or more privileged class colonial class of people in the north east have access to so theres a feeling of. Collectivity and they space where they get together they recognise each other they understand that they belong to a certain form of x. Instance and and that is mainly for me a very very beautiful form of resistance despite the public power i mean the state the power. Moreas fighting for selfassertion. There is no hierarchy regarding gender or beauty models just an incredible amount of energy. The c. S. B. Analogy is with some pretty serious topics but also in a very left field and colorful way.
