Discover modern art in a Renaissance environment
Over 2,500 works by artists from all over the world will be displayed at the 7th edition of the Biennale Internazionale dell'Arte Contemporanea in Florence which will be held from December 5th to the 13th in the historical setting of Fortezza Da Basso.
Visitors will have the chance to take part in conferences and events with honorary guests like Marina Abramovic and Shu Yong.
Marina Abramovic will exhibit some of her videos at the Fortezza Da Basso and will offer a lecture to the audience followed by a book signing and an exchange of thoughts between herself and the public.
Shu Yong will exhibit some of the paintings from the series "Chinese Myths".

The objective of the Biennale is to diffuse, without any economic, social, cultural, current or style barriers and prejudices, the artistic nature of all populations throughout the world. It has belonged to the United Nations programme "Dialogue among civilisations" since 2001. This is a great opportunity to discover modern art in a Renaissance environment.
