      One of the nicest article on Venice written by a "foresta" (a "foreigner woman").. txt: Vanishing Venice: The world tugs at the lovely hem of the city Thomas Mann called "half fairy tale and half tourist trap." - nationalgeographic.com
      Finally, there is tourism. Of that, Cacciari the philosopher said this: "Venice is not a sentimental place of honeymoon. It's a strong, contradictory, overpowering place. It is not a city for tourists. It cannot be reduced to a postcard."

      txt: Anish Kapoor: portrait of the artist as a special effect - timesonline.co.uk

      Here is an artist who plays games with perceptions. Can emptiness become an object? Can the monumental be immaterial? Can the ethereal take solid form? At what point does something come into being and at what point does it vanish back into complete non-existence?

      Venice is a Collision Zone

      Ho camminato molto per Venezia questa estate, fatto foto, visto molte cose interessanti. Ho visitato molti degli eventi collaterali della Biennale di Arte. Ho scoperto molti angoli di questa città che non conoscevo, e in cui si poteva entrare solo durante la Biennale di Arte. Di questa Biennale (di questa Venezia) rimane un senso di confine, di limite, di incertezza. E di vuoto. Confini chiusi, confini che si aprono, confini che si richiudono. Limiti da passare, o già passati. Limiti da rivedere. Crisi o nuove prospettive? Venezia rimane zona di collisione. I walked a lot in Venice this summer: lot of photos, many interesting things. I visited many of the collateral events of the Biennale of Art. I discovered corners of this town I didn't know, and where you could enter only during the Biennale of Art. This Biennale (this Venice) leaves a sense of boundary, of limit, of uncertainty. And of emptiness. Closed borders, borders to be open, re-closing borders. Limits to pass, or already passed. Limits to be reviewed. Crisis or new opportunities? Venice remains a collision zone. txt: Gast Bouschet and Nadine Hilbert - Collision Zone - Louxembourg Pavilion
      Europe’s fear of massive infiltration from without lies at the heart of Gast Bouschet & Nadine Hilbert’s Collision Zone, a haunted staging of image and sound recordings collected by the artists in the border regions of the Mediterranean. [...] Collision Zone fundamentally questions the notion of borders, following the observation that continents in general, and Africa in specific, are actually moving and constantly changing their respective positions. Overpowering natural and geological forces slowly but surely extend or shift the world’s physical and geographical boundaries. Gast Bouschet & Nadine Hilbert’s work thus draws its inspiration from a series of phenomena on the brink of the visible which appear to be regulating our world. By merging biological time and deep time, their installation creates a lapse of meditative time – a purposeful introspective slowdown interrupted by sporadic violent eruptions.
