ARENA FOR A TREE IN VENICE

An ‘ark’ in the Arsenale

Starting April a platform bearing a circular structure made of wood will be moored close to the “La Biennale di Venezia”. From a distance, the large ‘hull’ looks like an upside-down dome or a giant walnut shell with a sapling sprouting from it. Seen close-up, it reveals itself as architecture, sculpture and stage rolled into one. Mimicking the growth rings of a tree, its horizontal structure can seat up to fifty people in three tiers.

THE END OF AGING

In a world undergoing a biotechnological revolution, the project aims to address the urgent issue of aging, described by some as the greatest societal challenge of our time. The exhibition raises questions about the social, economic, and cultural implications of longevity. Reality and fiction blur through short films developed for the exhibition, dystopian environments reminiscent of science fiction scenography, and complex soundscapes. Alongside these installations, insights from internationally renowned scientists provide visitors with the opportunity to glimpse into the possible future of biotechnologically supported life extension.

30 August – 17 November 2024
