Venice Biennale, Palestinian art

Are you heading for the Venice Biennale this year? Opening on june 7th to sept 30th 09.
Palestine is not yet on the map as an official country, so it did not have the same treatment as the others. Political implication doesn't stop art from existing, but it can hinder recognition and exposure.
This year, by a stroke of luck, for the first time in the history of the 53 Biennales, artists from Palestine will show their productions in a collateral event.
check out the Palestinian event website
or La biennale di Venezia website
