after the fall of the berlin wall nov 9th d.w. .

in april 2015 a boat sank in the mediterranean just 700 migrants drowned it was on his coast to fish it has brought the wreck to the venice biennale a but can the vessel really be classed as own or is it just tasteless well it's certainly getting people talking and that is very much in the spirit of the now in its 58th edition which aims to open up new perspectives on the world is that succeeding let's take a look. fog stealing secrets of a rolling down the facade of the central pavilion. the artificial fog envelops the visitors at the entrance curator ralph rudolph promised powerful images and the show begins with one created by lara. art that you can physically feel.

it's rising for the bill because it was a breeze. collected all the thoughts of the visitors who were inside who were engaging in this war. of course as human beings for not just about things. you know it's we can live in the past in the future but in our bodies were always will be the rest of the exhibition is entitled may you live in interesting times what does that mean is that a chinese cats as is widely supposed to know that's a political myth and in this age of fake news and alternative facts this show urges us to take a closer look at the world around us and to take a stance. that was really. really about 5 feet we're going to. put in a small cabinet as the director created by dominicans artists 1st enjoyed this whole it's amazingly realistic but where are the animals and other living beings.

those people more is actually based on old photographs of somebody dry as places of earth through the desert in chile where there's a few. so while it is not you know something you know science museum also making a big about what could be the future of earth with climate change. many die rama's used to offer an insight into the past stage scenes of everyday life this dire alma gives an insight into the future into death in this diner rama. also to be used like the religious form of work for real. rudolph has done many works which are easy to understand and yet have a lasting impact. jimmy durham who won this year's golden lion for lifetime achievement brought a slab of stone. in his path around the world he detailed. me india. how it's

brought them to mom by our travels through the sewers into the street you. do it becomes a. story about global economic relationship. it ends up an office building for you live. weighing in at half a ton it's dazzlingly beautiful but at the same time it's a symbol of exploitation. real love isn't one for spectacle nor does he believe in political correctness he thinks that our should be allowed to be an image that burns itself into the mind so that it's not forgotten. robots wiping clean a surface soil by viscous liquid that looks like blood over and over again.

water is still work in the world. would we feel really good. for you. if you do it in. a relentless and desperate beast that might shatter the glass panels at any time programmed with 2 different motions sequences everything under control. the outside. yes the last fits the redo. the work is by the chinese artists one young and 10 you who think that the essence of us is that it cannot be tamed. jury wrong. too. i. was

bored. so i was. i. think it's possible to read this book any different love. artists i. search for. free expression. even a society that's. structured to confer expression. this is. not dissimilar what's out. like a murderer whose crime comes back to haunt them. and this sheen perhaps can be controlled a human being cannot. humans try to think their own past in venice this path could lead perhaps to lithuania pavilion to a summer opera with a deeper meaning.

i cried so much when i heard that the corals want to exist anymore the girl sings. it the way it is the winner of this year's golden lion for the best national contribution to the venice biennale 0. 0. 000. sun and see it's a performative piece it was created by the artist trio regular budget of 5 a good i need to and lena. i.

it's actually you want to think that it's a nice entres between the songster underneath and that there is a light. side to inform on their real lives on a slow pace soon you'll observe. a lot. going on in the various. external sensors and something to look at 1st glance they might look like vacationers at the beach but the people in swimwear sing about the impact of everyday travel on our climate or about the mass extinction of species. company text explains how casually crises unfold today with the ease of a pop song a brilliant piece of work with when you're a worthy winner. where to now the longest long is in front of the french prevailing. is it worth the wait.

it's smoky in focus here too is it a metaphysical pressure cooker or a mystical palace whatever it is it's alluring how far you've come a. really good deep snow simplest system. of visit his have to go around the back. and then you want to answer for their grand trends you know i wanted. us to find a new way to let d you. know you know oh is it that you and this weekend trip there right. there right away and it is much more special for the better. living our. weavers. i.

know if you if you want to know they need to get into the back you know just climb up the better you go in there is a good point you keep coming. in. here we started to get a turn on to the british so we stick with a little break then. busy busy busy busy all around us the detritus of civilization. 'd creates miniature installations depicting the end of the world she's interested in the state of transition as well as that of destruction. it's a bit to a dead end big blue green when it's in me it's quite close to reality and future inerrancy is. up there well but.

the work also brings to mind biblical imagery and noah after the flood released to dive to find land. who won the turner prize in 2013 travelled across france inviting artists and performers to come with her to venice to animate the french pavilion. then we met a magician there can start getting the table seeing the birds flying out of paintings and we couldn't believe it so if i can reverse it we carry on the tree and then joined a and it gives amazing being. a film journey with real discoveries. digital surrealism continuing into the analog world

. a marching band at the pele idiotic. i mean we met and i don't know where you go here is the father of the president that we met you know you know that went with him. then you know we get it. no fishes in the unconscious and discovers the state of the world magnificent but where should we go now after all this strangeness welcome we expect at the german to villian. hotel should suit up and run want to do something completely different with her

head hidden the artist representing germany can't talk right now and as her own spokeswoman. could marking. the artist's real name is not tosh and saw that her head here she was born in iran and is now a professor in britain and this is a work of anti representation she simplified her name. deconstructing what is it with this measure of conformity the artist wanted to confront the challenge of curating the german trevelyan in venice and the optimal form for doing this is integration of the optimal to form deficit and. that's how she says you to have a man is not a pseudonym but an adaptation. so i don't see what. the artist produced videos for the be another to depict or journeys to migrant processing centers in germany. or centers have been called anchor centers anchor here is a euphemism for arrival decision. return. to center service holding camps until

people are deported or choose to go back to their countries of origin voluntarily. in korea in italy the artist visited the spot where migrant harvest helpers were killed in a road accident he. kept not just as you to help them and also i chose the task as the to happen man because she inspires me very much for significance mcnish seen the way she works with different art forms different forms of knowledge and has successful transitions between music installations and the different sensual impressions that are imparted. like at the french per 1000000000 here to the front entrance is closed. inside there are rocks and a dam that reaches to the ceiling it's powerful but permeable.

it's a bad spot and right sample dams hold back water and the accumulation of pressure forms energy. in an arch against the pressure that they are expecting but if the pressure is too high or miscalculated and they burst. it's a simple image to illustrate some german people's fear of being inundated with migrants. it doesn't seem as if this wall will hold for very long the other side reveals the simplicity of the installation. the structure is made of wood and cardboard with whole song screech from the speakers the soundtrack of protests. message clearly received time to move on. these spaces are

meant to be for all races you know follow tribes for all communities to speak the truth because it's mush leave it. to this statement could well be the most hope for this year's be in. the dominance of the west is over and venice to ask us from the global south especially from asia and africa are represented this year as never before. impossible to miss magnificent self portraits by the south african photographer and activist. who exposed various roles. her gaze is seeking. questioning. demanding. we don't have much presentation f.

museums around the world so i think that it's about time between. your asia specifically the spaces and also to take ownership of our voices to take ownership of our kaif's rights our own narrative is visual narratives are really important and also for us to say that we are proud of as black people. proud and joyful this was one of the great emotional moments of this years be an hour or so from ghana celebrated its 1st national pavilion in venice an exhibition that is 120 years old the country's 1st lady came to the inauguration as a top british architect today with a j that's coming in roots and who designed the pavilion. as president wants to ensure that the dogs are central to the development of the country some feel to tourism sokol to this. off part of the country and

communicating to the world the kind of incredible benevolence of a country and its people so that's why we're here and not a small pavilion but a very large to really make it very large state with. just designed plays on good main building traditions creating an intimate space for the sensitive portraits by painter the net your dog watching. you. and your photos by felicity upon gunness 1st professional female photographer she started taking pictures at the age of 14 and captured the political development in ghana which in $157.00 was one of the 1st african countries to gain independence from britain and that narrative informs ghana's 1st pavilion which is untitled gun of freedom. and such a powerful statement we have read you know what does that freedom mean what did it mean that in 1050 is that what he got and then what does it mean now how you know

how does that freedom grow or not grab it. what does it mean for us to be free. 6 artists from different generations offer their viewpoints on these questions. join the conference video installation was commissioned especially it's about migration climate change and trust environment. the works will be displayed in gone as capital city opera after the begin on it and will be accompanied by a series of debates around the gama freedom project. it's all very well coming to venice you know with the well heeled crowd and doing something like this but what relevance and what resonance that they actually have within the country and not just in our ground i mean and in the kind of sound where people you know maybe east at large galleries but in communities across. as

a country this is very much part of this press and. thousands of kilometers live between ghana and india but only a few meters separate that type of aliens. the world's biggest democracy is being represented a menace for only the 2nd time the government at the thing the pavilion pays tribute to national icon mahatma gandhi this year is the 150th anniversary of his birth. every time every time the faces of despair we do look up to gandhi so the idea was to really look at these artists and how their lewd to all very subtly you walk him through his ideas and pronounce values of either p.s. nonviolence passive resistance minimal guns option ecological concerns and so on. in 1039 mahatma gandhi wrote his 1st letter to as of hitler addressing him as dear friend. that has decided to protect the original manuscript onto

a smokescreen gandhi's failed attempt to prevent a war 5 weeks before germany marched into poland remains very moving today. the center of the work is really the viewer who 1st reads the message in 1st person because it as is your friend friends have been urging me to write to you for the sake of humanity and i think it's a moment a reflection of your own position and how you might see in the world your own gestures are actually. a container kulkarni to gandhi is a point of reference she explores violence in public space sexual violence india is one of the most dangerous countries in the world for women. the artist's works are wearable. so this is our moment for protection for the female body but the mccann ism is such that when you are wearing it. you can

move too easily you know the hands move in a particular way the head moves in a particular way so you're trapped the body is trapped in a way so i'm talking of the things the notion of protection and the motion of being trapped. what does it mean to be a woman in a patriarchal society be our sister self or the i am a 5 performances to do this in the middle of mumbai was courageous. it's getting loud here in the brazilian pavilion. a country fictional documentary that follows the rehearsals for us when garrick competition this subculture combines folklore and pop i'm vogue it's a scene that attracts that involves the l g b t i community and young people from the outskirts of brazil's big cities.

there are poor people from the favelas a socially speaking people who have very well less access to things up in. a white or more privileged class colonial class of people in the northeast have access to so there's a feeling of. collectivity and they space where they get together they recognise each other they understand that they belong to a certain form of exis us and and that is mainly for me a very very beautiful form of resistance despite the public power i mean that is stated by our. moreas fighting for self-assertion. there is no hierarchy regarding gender abuse he models judge. it's an incredible amount of energy. the.

this is being out of deals with some pretty serious topics but also in a very left field and colorful way. shaggy and fairy and this could be chewbacca seen from inside. and here she comes. to put out a nailed it also known as shoppy short for shoplifter alias. the breakthrough hope to villian leads from the darkness to the end of the rainbow into the sky. the material hair extensions from china as cheap and as many as possible. just like a plays that can just nest and and be embraced by almost

like like you know walking into your children book dream world or being embraced by your paper instead of your phrasing the teddy bear it's. basically my main inspiration as humans and human ingenuity and you know the absurdity of the things that to be mass produced for obscure purposes like most of the color hair extensions to be other to our own hair shop the who was born in reykjavik has been living in new york for a long time. hess sculptors have already been displayed at the museum of modern art and on a record cover fulfill the icelandic. color therapy where art seeks to put feel is in a good mood. that
