Open Space, sculptures and installations in the Marinaressa Gardens in Venice

From August 29, 2020, to February 16, 2021, theEuropean Cultural Center presents the first edition of the multidisciplinary exhibition Open Space in Venice, to be held in the Giardini della Marinaressa. An exhibition that will run parallel to the Biennale’s 125th anniversary celebrations.

Open Space will involve artists, architects and designers, and small and large-scale sculptures and installations will be exhibited, with the intention of enhancing the importance of art in everyday life, bringing out the link between the arts, public spaces and the community.

The works on display are intended to make the public reflect on both the concepts expressed by each artist and their relationship within public spaces in urban contexts. The artists in the exhibition share a common value in the desire to create a dynamic public space in dialogue with art projects that are inspiring to the community.

Following are the artists involved: Stefano Bombardieri, Paul Chamberlain, ECA Contemporary Arts, ECA Collective Arts Workshop, Carole A. Feuerman, Riccardo Gatti, Barbara Grygutis, Edwin Hamilton, David Jacobson, Ivan Lardschneider, Stefan Milkov, Jackie Neale, Jaroslav Róna, Singapore - ETH Center, Future Cities Laboratory, Andrée Valley.

In recent years, the European Cultural Center has promoted and supported the renovation of the East Garden and the West Garden to make them accessible again.

The exhibition will be accompanied by appointments and events taking place at the Garden venues: workshops, film screenings, performances, with the aim of creating a dialogue around the exhibition and its themes.

Hours: Daily from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Free admission.
