Non solo Biennale: cosa vedere a Venezia nella primavera 2026 tra gallerie, spazi indipendenti e progetti speciali
The article highlights a curated selection of exhibitions to see in Venice during spring 2026, beyond the main shows of the 61st Venice Biennale. It features projects in galleries, independent spaces, and historic venues, including a group show titled "Waves" at Casa Sanlorenzo with works by Alexander Calder and Lucio Fontana, a video installation by Ieva Lygnugarytė at Oratorio dei Crociferi, a Judy Chicago survey at Galleria Alberta Pane, a solo show by Hanna Rochereau at Mare Karina, and a Barry X Ball retrospective at the Abbey of San Giorgio Maggiore.
This matters because Venice during the Biennale becomes a global hub for contemporary art, and these off-site exhibitions offer visitors deeper, more intimate encounters with both established and emerging artists. They reflect the city's unique ability to blend historical architecture with cutting-edge artistic practices, enriching the overall cultural experience and providing critical context for the Biennale's main themes.
