Het Arsenale: hoe een gouwe ouwe verviel tot zieltogend eendje en toch nog een trotse zwaan werd

Het Arsenale in Venetië, eeuwen her het mythische en grootste industrieterrein van Europa. Toen vervallen en nu omgetoverd tot de intrigerende kunstparel van de Biënnale. Een dag dwaalde TOOS er rond en dit is haar beeldverslag met toelichting. #art

kaart van rond 1720 van het Arsenale terrein Het Arsenale di Venezia. Ik kondigde het vorige week al aan. Nu een magisch gebied voor de kunst, voor de Biënnale van Venetië. Maar eeuwen geleden naast symbool voor de grote macht van de Republiek Venetië ook de plek waar die macht concreet werd gemaakt. Elke keer opnieuw onderga ik daar de speciale sfeer van dat eeuwenoude, geheimzinnig complex.…

Biennale di Venezia 2024 - Arsenale

[mcgiggers]

Venice - May 2024

Just back from the Floating City which served as a beautiful backdrop for the 60th edition of La Biennale di Venezia, the world’s longest running and most extravagant contemporary art festival. Thematically grouped under the banner Foreigners Everywhere – Stranieri Ovunque, the exhibit privileged lesser-known artists from the global south who are foreigners, immigrants, expatriates, diasporic, exiled or refugees, and it showcased craft, tradition and the handmade which often is considered outsider or strange in the world of fine arts. The result was a marvelous adventure where some initial trepidation was quickly assuaged by an explosion of colours and creative renderings. In addition to the Biennale, numerous other exhibits and museum shows were staged concurrently throughout the city and visiting many of these in the two and a half days at hand made the experience that much more memorable.

Training for the Venice marathon was held in the hilltop village of Petritoli in the Le Marche region of Italy, where swims in the Adriatic, biking between neighboring towns and hiking in the Sibillini Mountains prepared the mind, body and soul for the viewing experience to come. The prelude to Venice also included a short stop in Monza and Carlazzo where family and food were graciously celebrated. Fuel throughout was local fare and featured Il Grecale’s calamarata in San Benadetto del Tronto, Antonio’s wood fired margherita pizza in Carlazzo and Osteria Ai Do Farai’s carpaccio di Branzino in Venice.

This year’s Biennale presented the works of over 330 artists, mostly first-time participants, and over 85 countries were represented with their own national pavilions. The principal venues were the Arsenale, a former Venetian military dockyard, which housed themed exhibits as well as some national pavilions, and the Giardini, a lush garden area at the mouth of the Grand Canal that is home to 30 or so permanent national pavilions and a Central Pavilion that featured a curated selection of works by artists from Latin America, Africa, the Middle East and Asia. In addition, there were numerous other Biennale offsite locations scattered about town.

Among the national pavilions, the Australian entry featuring Archie Moore’s monumental family tree dating back 65,000 years took top prize among in-the-know jurors.  Other standouts included: Canada with Kapwani Kiwanga’s sculptures and all-over bead work; Nigeria which featured the photography, sculpture and painting of eight artists; and Italy with Massimo Bartolini’s labyrinth of metal scaffolding and sound machines. The highlights in the themed sections included: Costantino Nivola’s “Bozzetto per lo show-room Olivetti a New York”, 1953, plaster casting on sand and polychromy; Dalton Paula’s “Chico Rei”, 2024, gold leaf and oil on canvas; Pacita Abad’s “You Have to Blend In, Before You Stand Out”, 1995, oil, painted cloth, sequins, buttons on stitched and padded canvas; Fanny Sanin’s ”Oil No. 7”, 1969, oil on canvas; and Kim Yun Shin’s “Add Two Add One, Divide Two Divide One”, 1979, Korean red pine wood.

Piggybacking on the Biennale fanfare, numerous museums and converted palazzos and churches also staged wonderful shows all over the city. Stops included: The Peggy Guggenheim Collection which displayed its permanent collection of 20th century masterworks by leading European and American artists; the “William de Kooning and Italy” exhibit at Galerie dell’Accademia di Venezia; Pierre Huyghe’s “Liminal” at Punta della Dogana; Julie Mehretu’s “Ensemble” at Palazzo Grassi; the “Beati Pacifici: The Disasters of War and the Hope for International Peace” from the Bailey Collection at Chiesa San Samuele; and Berlinde De Bruyckere’s “City of Refuge III” installation at the Abbazia di San Giorgio Maggiore. Particularly memorable were: Pierre Huyghe’s “Offspring”, 2018, sensor based self-generative system for sound and light; Julie Mehretu’s “Among the Multitude XIII”, 2021-2022, ink and acrylic on canvas (48 x 60 in.) and “Black City”, 2007, ink and acrylic on canvas ( 120 x 192 in.); and magnificent de Kooning statues, including “Cross-Legged Figure”, 1972, bronze (edition of 7 plus 3 AP) and “Clamdigger”, 1972, bronze (edition of 7 plus 3AP). As for the Bailey and De Bruyckere exhibits, both were eerie and beautiful and set in surreal repurposed church spaces which were worth seeing on their own.

Meanwhile, crunch time hoops were being played in the new world. Regrettably Crazy Eyes and his Pacers were efficiently ousted by the Celtics, and with that, Dino fans on the legacy bandwagon were left a bit short of reliving glory days through the success of former players. The show nonetheless must go on, and the finals will tip off featuring the dominant Celtics and the surprising Mavericks and arguably the best guard matchups in the game. As for the Dinos, the focus turns to the upcoming draft and planning for next season. As of yet, neither Crazy Eyes nor OG-Wan Kenobe have signed with the teams they were traded to, and, by now, they surely must realize that change is overrated. So maybe, just maybe, is a return to Jurassic Park a possibility? Highly unlikely. The Biennale runs through November 2024. With the next edition two years away, it would be great if the Dino rebuild was on the same timeline, but that’s probably being a bit too optimistic. The next few years will truly test the mettle of fans.

The Road to Venice

June 8 23

ITALY JOURNAL

Arsenale stop on Colonna,

Garibaldi street

Venice.. 

10.15 pm 

When we had landed and figured out how to buy a ticket to travel to where we were staying in Venice, which was supervised by two very expressive ladies from the City who explained things, but it cost £45 or so for three days travel!!  And about £10 to get a boat to Arsenale, the nearest stop to where we were staying.  

 We left the airport and made our way down miles it seemed of escalator until we came out into modern high wharf covered in where beautiful fast boats keep arriving and leaving, causing much splashing of water.  I’ve never seen boats in Devon or Cornwall arrive or leave with so much splashing and heaving, however it was glorious fun and the sun was shining on this lovely fun, everyone was having a great time, getting into fast boats and dashing off. Very dashing. It wasn’t like that when I visited thirty- five years ago.  There were boats, much smaller ones and just a very humble wharf and that was it.  It was sandy and marshy and just one small quay to tie boats up at and it may well have been wood.  Now it is glorious and fun for the visitors.  When the water taxi arrived, it did so with a great splash and rush and I was told, ‘Quickly, quickly!’ by the man at the boat as we got on the taxi.

 Then the trip was divine, in sunshine, on a main road or waterway marked by wooden posts and in the distance the skyline of Venice, immortalised by all those painters, arose from the land, like a heaven, everywhere beautiful buildings arose from the sea and hung there. It was like they were suspended in thin air. 

Then that night we walked in the evening watching the water moving on sudden canals and boats rushing, but quietly, lit by green and red lights, the wash quietly moving everywhere. 

People in apartments that over looked the canal were living their precious lives, small quiet alleyways that are streets and people’s houses overlooking everything.  Then the life on the main street where there were so  many people eating and talking and being together, entertaining one another.  Fancy!

 At Arsenale, we could watch the big boats go by, lit up at night, perhaps car ferries, to who knows where? We couldn’t tell, we didn’t know where they were coming from or where they were going to, but that was the beauty of it, the push toget somewhere to reach something was utterly gone andjust this wash of the sea over a shallow lagoon, without the deep reaching to deep of the ocean. 

We sat and looked at the lightning lighting up the sky over the lagoon.  What luck to be here and see all this!  I only got it because someone else chucked it over and cancelled.  Ain’t life funny?
