Venice Biennale: The Must-Sees Off the Official Program

Biennale de Venise, les immanquables du off

The article highlights must-see exhibitions taking place in Venice alongside the official Biennale, curated by the magazine L'Œil. It features three major shows: "Le pli et le temps" at Fondazione dell’Albero d’Oro, exploring the fold as a material and temporal concept through the work of Patrick Saytour and Piero Manzoni; "Lorna Simpson. Third Person" at Punta della Dogana, a major European survey of Simpson's paintings, collages, and films organized by the Pinault Collection; and "Picasso, Morandi, Parmiggiani. Still Lifes" at Galleria di Piazza San Marco, a dialogue between three masters of still life, co-organized by Tornabuoni gallery and the Musée national Picasso-Paris.

In Venice, the Punta della Dogana tells the striking trajectory of activist artist Paulo Nazareth

À Venise, la Punta della Dogana raconte la trajectoire saisissante de l’artiste activiste Paulo Nazareth

Brazilian artist Paulo Nazareth (b. 1977) has mounted a major exhibition at the Punta della Dogana in Venice, working remotely to honor his pledge not to set foot in Europe until he has walked through all 54 African countries. The show includes a striking new installation: a line of salt tracing the shape of a slave ship (tumbeiro) on the first floor, evoking the hundreds of enslaved people who died in such vessels. Other works range from embroidered dishcloths and spontaneous photographic self-portraits to cardboard signs and resin-encased packaging critiquing racist marketing, alongside fragile handmade boat models that echo refugee crossings. The exhibition, titled "Algebra," was curated by Fernanda Brenner and runs through 2026.
