so today aaron has gone to mestre (the mainland) to deliver posters.... and i am in the pav alone!
quick update...
- sound dome is less smelly.
thank diffusion.
- an older, charismatic italian man came up to me the other day and got me to explain Vincent's piece to him... IN ITALIAN!
i think i sounded like i had verbal constipation.
it was tough... but i think i managed to get his thinking juices flowing.
he left with a look of intrgue and a slight head tilt.
so i havne't really been to many other pavillions....
it's quite ba d really.
cos i've been to the MExican one twice!
and am plnanning to go again...
it has got to be one of the most amazing palazzo's a s well as really top quality work.
the artist works with sensors and technology and creates beautiful images, concepts and works of art.
his work made me smile, gasp, think, cry, and left me speechless.
it's real biennale quality.
compared to his work... most of the work in giardini looked amateur (to me).
and it has deflated my longing to expllore it in more depth.... but i know i really should...
i also wen t to the Taiwanese pavilion -
really cool concepts. it was called "atopia"
about a worl with no boundaries .. a "non -place"... globalization.
you enter the space and are immediately launched into this crazy, surreal, technicoloured world with strange noises and objects...
it's quite consuming.
i've taken some photos... and will put them up soon... i think aaron knows how to sort that out.
right... i need to attend to my palazzo now.
