Why should you participate?

International Exposure:

Venice 2024 stands as one of the premier destinations in the world of contemporary art. As a historic city steeped in culture, it provides the perfect backdrop for the vibrant and dynamic atmosphere of the contemporary art scene. You’ll join a global community of artists, critics, and creators who gather here to celebrate and shape the future of art.

Historical Locations:

Palazzo Mora, a 300-year-old Venetian palace, provides a distinctive venue with historic charm and versatile spaces ideal for tailored installations.

Palazzo Bembo, a 15th-century venue, perfectly houses various art forms, with its symmetrical rooms on both floors enhancing the artworks’ narrative.

The Marinaressa Gardens, is the perfect location close to Piazza San Marco and La Biennale. These public gardens are not only a key passage in front of the lagoon but also a perfect canvas for installations that harmonise with the landscape.

The Team:

The ECC Italy Team is composed of young and passionate individuals dedicated to assisting you in expressing your art and communicating your message. We offer comprehensive technical support both before and during the exhibition, along with press coverage on our social media channels and prominent art magazines and platforms.
