Venice Biennale
We are pleased to be involved, in a small way, supporting Simon Denny’s Secret Power, that will show at New Zealand’s pavilion at the 2015 Venice Biennale.
Secret Power considers how we access information in the post-Snowden world, focusing on relationships between geography, knowledge, and power. The dual venues of the Marciana Library and the arrivals lounge at Marco Polo Airport provide the pavilion for Denny to explore the way the world is represented in state-produced documents, spaces, and images.
NZ at Venice is an initiative lead by Creative New Zealand Arts Council of New Zealand Toi Aotearoa, with key partner Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa and supporting partners College of Creative Arts Toi Rauwharangi Massey University and City Gallery Wellington, and the generous support of NZ at Venice Patrons of which we are one.
