Venice Biennale: A Showcase of Global Art

The 60th edition of the Venice Biennale recently closed, leaving a lasting impact. With a strong attendance showing, it attracted both local and international visitors. Organizers reported that 59% of attendees were foreigners, and 30% were young people and students under 26. This trend continued from previous years, demonstrating the Biennale's appeal to a diverse audience.The extension of the exhibition's run time and the incorporation of more programming for young visitors have contributed to its success. Programs like Biennale College Arte support emerging artists, while the Biennale Sessions project engages university students from around the world. Additionally, there was a significant increase in attendance to accessibility-focused programming.
