Artsy takes you inside the 57th Venice Biennale. For the first time, experience the world’s most important art exhibition through a series of 360° films produced by Scenic in collaboration with UBS. Hear the story of the famed 122-year-old event from a global cohort of leading artists and curators, such as Massimiliano Gioni, Carol Bove, and Erwin Wurm. Then, follow their journeys to Venice—and immerse yourself in the most engaging artworks, performances, and conversations animating curator Christine Macel’s exhibition “Viva Arte Viva,” the surrounding national pavilions, and villas, boats, and streets across the city.
