The 59th International Art Exhibition in Venice, entitled The Milk of Dreams, will take place between April 23rd and November 27th 2022. The Biennale Arte 2022 will be curated by Cecilia Alemani.
The title is borrowed from a book by Leonora Carrington, in which, as Cecilia Alemani says, »the Surrealist artist describes a magical world where life is constantly re-envisioned through the prism of the imagination, and where everyone can change, be transformed, become something and someone else. The exhibition takes us on an imaginary journey through metamorphoses of the body and definitions of humanity.«
The exhibition focuses on three themes in particular: the representation of bodies and their metamorphoses; the relationship between individuals and technologies; the connection between bodies and the Earth.
