Written by
The Venice Biennale is an event that always galvanizes the art world. From the four corners of the globe, critics, artists, collectors and curators converge to chew on the new. This year, writes Sarah Milroy for The Globe and Mail, "is the best Biennale we had seen in years". Milroy credits this to two things: first, many of the leading nations have made their best curatorial picks in a long time, and second, the artistic director of this year's Biennale was Robert Storr.
