Biennale of Venezia takes every other year in the town of Venezia, Italy. It has an ultimate goal to represent to the public the most significant art created since 2 years in the world and it does not have any commercial intent.

89 countries participated to Biennale in 2015 presenting their own selected artiste or artistes in either their historical pavilions or dedicated spaces. Mainly Biennale takes place areas such as in Giardini and Arsenale, which are part of Venezia and are accessible by foot or boat (so called vaporetto). Also some dedicated spaces are situated all over Venice. And of course many collateral events take place during Biennale. It lasts about 7 months, from May until November in 2015.

Artissima, contemporary art fair is held every year in Torino, Italy and this was my first time I came, what a surprise was it for my eyes!

Hello,

This is my first post and Manifesto for my blog.

I find art for my blog in Paris, New-York, Moscow and London – in any city of the world where I go. I look with my eyes for artworks defining moment of truth. I search for strong images impacting emotionally, calling for imagination and for being interpreted. Colors, ambiance, mixed media are important to me and I always look forward. I find and share art of beginning and mid 10’s and which will matter in 10 years. You will find on my blog posts about emerging and mid-career artistes. I look for energetic and innovative art works in terms of media and forms. Outdoor and alternative places are on my special radar. As Barbara Gladestone said: I provide people who understand art, who appreciate and follow art with opportunity to see it.

Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder (Plato).
