[Luxus+ Magazine] Venice Biennale 2022: A surreal and feminine edition

The Venice Biennale of Contemporary Art opened at the end of April and runs until November 27, an opportunity to rediscover the best of Contemporary Art, after two years of pandemic.

 

The most awaited contemporary art event in the world returns to Venice after an absence of two years. It offers no less than 200 creators, from 58 countries and presenting 1,433 works.

 

This 59th Biennial of Contemporary Art is embodied by a strong female presence, indeed, 80% of the artists are women, between high-profile stars and more confidential artists. The general curator of this biennial, Cecilia Alemani, has chosen to give pride of place to collectives and minorities. The theme of this new edition is entitled “The Milk of Dreams“, inspired by the homonymous book, a collection of children’s stories, by the surrealist artist Leonora Carrington (1917-2011), who is very present in the exhibition “Surrealism and Magic” at the Guggenheim Foundation.
