Il Palazzo Enciclopedico/The Encyclopedic Palace. Biennale Arte 2013

Exhibition Catalogue to the 55th Biennale di Venezia, 2013

(English)

The 55th Exhibition catalogue is composed by two volumes, which together amount to over 700 pages: the first volume, dedicated to the International Exhibition, contains reproductions of the artworks, profiles of the participating artists, and a special section of essays - coordinated by Sina Najafi and Jeffrey Kastner of Cabinet magazine - in which art historians, philosophers, academics, and writers discuss various forms of obsession, systems of information, adventures in knowledge, and other journeys of the imagination. A second volume is dedicated to National Participations and Collateral Events. A detailed and comprehensive short guide to the Exhibition (over 300 pages) is an essential tool for visiting the Exhibition: contains short monographic texts of all the invited artists to the 55th Exhibition and includes over 150 entries and articles along with useful information about all the National Pavilions and Collateral Events.
