The most iconic Art event in Italy is ready to open to the public.


The 58th International Art Exhibition, titled May You Live In Interesting Times, will take place from 11 May to 24 November 2019.

The title is a phrase of English invention that has long been mistakenly cited as an ancient Chinese curse that invokes periods of uncertainty, crisis and turmoil; "interesting times", exactly as the ones we live in today.

The 58th Exhibition is curated by Ralph Rugoff, currently the director of the Hayward Gallery in London. 

We have looked at the Australia Pavilion and to some of the most interesting works on show.
