The Venice Biennale is a large-scale international contemporary art exhibition. In early May, thousands of art-world denizens descend in the city for the
opening of a new edition of the Biennale, the closely watched pageant of contemporary art that has been running—with a few interruptions—since 1895. The Biennale is arguably the most prestigious exhibition in the world, filled with history and also cloaked in myth.
The preview days bring 25,000 artists, collectors, curators, museum directors and journalists into the city, followed by 600,000 visitors during the six months after. For this reason it is extremely important to know how everything works.
Session 1. 11.10.22
What is the Venice Biennale and why everybody wants to be present. Identification of the key points that all participants need to know before facing such an important event.
Session 2. 14.10.2022
First step, the location. How to find the ideal location. Even though the city is small, for the Venice Biennale you need to be in a good quarter. How to find the right location. Prices. The place makes the difference.
Session 3. 18.10.2022
Step 2. What do you need to know about your location. The exhibition space is in the Arsenale? Inside of the Biennale? Then it is very important to know which are the rules to respect, the permissions you need and the best
suppliers you can get.
Session 4. 21.10.2022
Organizing your event in a place located in the city: things change, there are other permissions you need to provide, rules to respect, and of course the suppliers.
Session 5. 25.10.2022
How to promote an event during the Biennale: this is the most intensive period and apart from the main exhibition organized by the Biennale, you have at least 300 more competitors. In the city during the Venice Biennale there almost 500 shows, events and projects.
Timing and strategies are a key point in order to have a successful event.
Session 6.
Collateral events can be a good strategy to keep and attract the attention on your initiative. When is a collateral program useful for the promotion of your show and how should it work: dinners, parties, conference, workshop and presentation.
Session 7. - 01.11.2022
Venice is a tough city! No cars, therefore transports are only on boats. It's all about logistic: transports and suppliers. Taxi and restaurants. Hotels and flats.
When you should start booking and arranging all these fundamental matters.
Session 8. - 04.11.2022
What you should not do at the Venice Biennale. Some key scenarios which should absolutely avoided.
