About the organizer

Organized by
African Art in Venice Forum

The African Art in Venice Forum (AAVF) is a public and free discursive event presented every other year in Venice, Italy during the opening week of the Biennale Internazionale dell’Arte di Venezia. The project provides new opportunities of exchange and visibility for contemporary art from Africa and its diasporas in the cultural, professional, and infrastructural context of the Venice Biennale.

The second edition of the Forum is presented on 7-8-9 May 2019 at the Hotel Monaco & Grand Canal. It has been designed as a highly interactive experience featuring talks, workshops, readings, and more, with an expanded format spanning across three full days.
