BIENNALE of Venice 2010 at Al Portico Guest House

Come and stay at Al Portico during the Venice Biennale 2010

The first Venice Art Biennale took place in 1895, after the Palazzo dell’Esposizione was built in the Castello Gardens: The Italy Pavilion.

Works of art by great international painters such as Klimt and Renoir were shown at the Biennale in 1910 and the first national pavilions were prepared. These were due to multiply over the years, until they represented almost all the countries of the world.

In 1948 after the Second World War, the Biennale opened up again in grand style. It exhibited works by Chagall, Klee, Magritte and there was a retrospective exhibition of Picasso’s work presented by Guttuso.

In 1980 the Architecture sector was set up. This occupied the area of the Shipyard’s rope-making buildings. At a later point, the Art Biennale and the Architecture Biennale decided to alternate each year, each allowing the other to use all the space available for their exhibits, including the Pavilions in the Shipyard gardens.
