suddenly Venetian artistic life. The awards ceremony will take place the day of opening to the public. Curator of the 60th Venice Art BiennaleThe 2024 edition is curated by Adriano Pedrosa. Adriano Pedrosa, curator of the 60th Venice Art Biennale– Adriano Pedrosa (born 1965) is a Brazilian curator. He is the artistic director of the São Paulo Art Museum (MASP) and the 2024 Venice Biennale. Ugandan Pavilion at 60th Biennale Arte of VeniceThe title of the exhibition at the Ugandan Pavilion is Wan Acel. Press Release Ugandan PavilionWan Acel is an invitation to declassify art through the work of a diverse and intergenerational group of artists. Working alone or in collectives, artists examine their own contexts of production, thereby questioning the prevailing versions that have served to construct and maintain hierarchies of artistic creation. The titles, Wan Acel | Tuli Bamu | Turibamwe, from languages spoken throughout Africa, represent the origins of the artists on display, who work across national borders. Through the exploration of collective memory, Wan Acel reveals and offers an intimate, multi-sensory kaleidoscope of materiality and craftsmanship. An invitation to ask: “How are you?” Instead of: “Who are you!? Why are you here!?" The pavilion's artists – Sanaa Gateja, Jose Hendo, Taga Nuwagaba, Xenson Ssenkaaba and Odur Ronald – present works composed of recycled paper beads, bark fabric, bamboo, recycled wedding dresses, rubber and watercolours. Acune form part of a choreographic participatory parade through Venice. With Wan Acel, I propose that we say to each other, by virtue of our common humanity: Useful information for the visitHours:
