52nd Venice Biennale 
 
The Inner-Soul Island: Isolation and foolery, Vettor Pisani exhibition at Venice International University
Vettor Pisani sees a balance between art and critical citation and the works on show offer a rich impasto of symbologies, alchemies, iconographies and contents where there is no continuity between the past and the present. The works focus on mourning and melancholy, such as Venere di Cioccolato (1970), Hermes (1975), L'addolorata (2007). The exhibition is curated by Achille Bonito Oliva and is open to the public until August 4, 2007.
