If you haven’t been to a Venice Biennale you wouldn’t believe it. There is too much to see to fit into a month, let alone the one week.
While that weight is both literal and metaphorical (Ai Weiwei touches on a political narrative, but also personifies the weight that ‘a name’ carries at Venice), there has been much talk of this year’s edition of the globally celebrated art event that intentionally places the weight elsewhere – that is, on the voices of women and marginalised artists.
