The one thing that everyone loves about Venice, is the fact that in spite of having been an international crossroads since the dawn of time, it’s the country’s most tradition-bound city. Venice has its own way of naming streets, maneuvering boats, working glass and cooking fish. It has its own culture, which have not been influenced by centuries of trade with Arab merchants and Northern European poets, age-old associations with the Far East and or even Hollywood invasions. Venice is not global. Venice is Venice, and June is the perfect month to discover this. For starters, the first Sunday of the month is dedicated to the ‘Vogalonga’, a 30-kilometer regatta that is held annually in the Lagoon to raise awareness about its ecosystem and preserve the tradition of the ‘voga veneta’, in other words, the traditional Venetian rowing style used by gondoliers, which is one of the city’s distinctive features. The season’s most social event takes place on 12 June with an aperitivo ‘chez Peggy’ (read Guggenheim), a happy hour at the Guggenheim Museum featuring DJ sets and works of art. A typically cosmopolitan event? Yes, in spite of the fact that the official aperitivo is a Spritz, the typical cocktail drunk by young Venetians. On 21 June, the city comes alive with Museum Night and don't miss ‘Viva Vivaldi’, a lavish multisensory experience, featuring large HD images, special olfactory effects and, naturally, music. A unique experience designed to offer visitors an opportunity to gain insight into the life and works of Vivaldi, the composer of the Four Seasons. For more information regarding these initiatives, see pages 6-9. Other highlights include the Art Biennale and Damien Hirst’s amazing exhibition devised specifically by the artist for Venice. Use your copy of Where to find out what’s on in the city. And then… relax and lose yourself amidst its ‘calli’ (squares). You’re in Venice, it’s summertime in Italy; who could ask for more?

Combining Venetian Gothic, Byzantine and Renaissance elements, this jewel of architecture owes its charm to its unparalleled beauty and a small mystery associated with its origins and the unknown architect who built it. Iconic, beautiful and… imperfect!

CANAL GRANDE Although it is known as ‘the most beautiful street in the world’, the Canal Grande is the main waterway of Venice. Lined on both sides by an uninterrupted series of palaces, churches, hotels and other public buildings, it offers a journey back into history, evoking the pomp and splendor of the ancient Serenissima. 

DAMIEN HIRST UNVEILS SUNKEN TREASURES A complex, ambitious project, billed as “10 years in the making.” Damien Hirst’s mythological extravaganza tells visitors about the findings of an archaeological excavation that salvaged the precious cargo of an ancient ship called the ‘Unbelievable’. Discovered in 2008, the ship carried an immense collection of sculptures, jewels and coins, amassed by Aulus Calidus Amotan, a freed slave turned wealthy man from Antioch. True or false? Visitors are greeted by a bizarre, ambiguous world, huge sculptures and collections of precious artifacts, dredged up from the depths of the ocean to generate questions and create disbelief. This vast exhibition is displayed across 5,000 square meters of museum space at Palazzo Grassi and Punta della Dogana, the two Venetian venues of the Pinault Collection, both dedicated for the first time ever to the works of a single artist. A unique experience: Damien Hirst’s first major solo exhibition in Italy is at once sensational, overwhelming and bizarre. Treasures from the Wreck of the Unbelievable Palazzo Grassi, Campo San Samuele 3231 / Punta della Dogana, Dorsoduro 2 Open 10am-7pm (closed on Tuesdays) www.palazzograssi.it

JUNE The 30km course runs from the northern lagoon past the islands of Sant'Erasmo, Burano and Mazzorbo, and through the centre of Murano before returning to Venice via the Canale di Cannaregio, proceeding down the Grand Canal to the finish line. The competition is open to all members of the rowing community and involves the participation of craft of all shapes and sizes. A carnival procession and a sporting event; the Vogalona Regatta is a colourful, enjoyable event for participants and spectators.

VIVA ARTE VIVA ▼ The 57th Art Biennale is an event that attracts the world’s best contemporary artists and offers visitors an amazing selection of works, installations, live performances, and multiple opportunities to reflect on the present. Human beings, their creative ability and their need for interaction take centre stage at this edition chaired by Paolo Baratta and curated by Parisian-born Christine Macel, Chief Curator at the Musée d’Art Moderne at the Pompidou Centre.

The theme of this edition is ‘Viva Arte Viva’, an exclamation, a passionate appeal for art and the state of the artist which, according to Christine Macel ,“celebrates mankind’s ability, through art, to avoid being dominated by world affairs. The artistic act is simultaneously an act of resistance, liberation and generosity.” Out of the 120 artists who have been invited to the exhibition, 103 are participating for the first time. The exhibition is hosted at two venues - the Arsenale and the Giardini - and features 87 national pavilions, each with its own curator and project, as well as an international exhibition organized by the Biennale di Venezia. To highlight the theme of this 57th edition, a cornucopia of live performances will be staged during the six months of the exhibition. The majority of these performances will be held at Central Pavilion, designed as a trans-national pavilion. TEN DAYS OF DANCE - Organized from June 23 to 1 July, the 11th International Festival of Contemporary Dance, directed by Marie Chouinard (see photo) and titled “First Chapter”, will include a 9-day schedule of events featuring up to 5 performances daily; there will be 26 choreographic works, 9 of which will be Italian première performances and 1 European première, in addition to 3 short original creations.

GLASS WORKSHOPS IN MURANO The Island of Murano, your first stopover of the day, can easily be reached from the centre of the city or Fondamenta Nuova. The island is famous throughout the world for its production of artistic glass. Although glass was originally produced in all areas of Venice, a decision was made at the end of the 13th century to move the glass factories to the city’s furthest island, to prevent the outbreak of fires caused by the furnaces. Murano thus became a glassmaking centre of excellence and, if the master glassblowers, who were in great demand in Europe, decided to leave the island to ply their trade abroad, they were forbidden to return to the city. This edict was because L intact I D Oits D I VENEZIA they used secret techniques and Venice wanted to be sure to keep monopoly of fine glass craftsmanship. While strolling through Murano, you will be struck by the vast array of glass works on display. However, don’t be fooled. If you want to make a purchase, make sure that the item has actually been created on the island. Authentic Murano glass products are protected by the Vetro Artistico Murano trademark. The trademark includes a sticker attached to the product on sale. Many glassblowing factories and exhibition spaces offer visitors a behind-the-scenes look at the masters sculpting and blowing delicate, colourful glass works of art, accompanied by explanations regarding time-honored glassblowing techniques. If you’re looking for something truly unique, head to Seguso and ask (ahead of time) to take part in a Seguso Experience, voted the best experience of the year in Italy in 2016 (www.seguso.com/experience). A family, which has been producing glass in Murano for the past 600 years will personally welcome you, and an expert guide, with a total passion for his job, will enlighten you about all the secrets of this technique. This is a unique opportunity to admire several of the best glass products in the world. ISOLA LA GRAZIA

WHERE NOW | FOCUS Other glass factories worth visiting include Gambaro and Tagliapietra as well as Marina and Susanna Sent for the production of glass jewelry. The Church dedicated to Maria and Donato also deserves a visit. The exterior of the church, featuring a beautifully decorated apse, exemplifies the magnificence that awaits you inside. When visiting its richly decorated interior, make sure to admire its lovely marble and mosaic floor featuring eye-catching geometric patterns and the mosaic dome of its apse dedicated to the Virgin Mary. Before leaving the island, you can relax and drink a cup of coffee on the terrace of the Hotel LaGare, an intimate, laid-back space overlooking Murano’s Grand Canal. The Hotel is located only steps from the Glass Museum, which tells the story of this exclusive artistic technique with a stunning display of unique pieces (www.museovetro.visitmuve.it). Over the next few months, during the Art Biennale, the exhibition titled ‘Gaetano Pesce. Five Glassmaking Techniques’ (until 17 September) will offer visitors a chance to discover several works created by the renowned Italian architect, sculptor and designer, whose works incorporate either new glassmaking techniques or fresh variations on ancient ones. TORCELLO, A JEWEL OF THE LAGOON It’s now time to leave the island and head to Torcello. Inhabited by only 20 permanent residents, this gem of an island is definitely worth a visit. The history of Venice began in Torcello, which was first settled after the fall of the Roman Empire, as barbarian invasions (including those led by Attila the Hun) on the mainland led many to flee and seek new shelter in the Venetian lagoon. In ancient times, the island looked completely different, and the

Off the beaten track For those who are already familiar with the main islands of Venice but would like to discover new ones, here are a few suggestions. Just a short boat ride from Burano, you’ll find the picturesque, aptly named island of San Francesco del Deserto. There's no public transport to the island, so you'll need to catch a water taxi, or book a shuttle by contacting www.lagunafla.it. It pays to phone ahead to ensure there's a friar available. Francescan friars offer free tours of their secluded island home, which, according to legend was visited by St. Francis on his return from the East. The island was owned by a Venetian nobleman and, on his arrival, St. Francis was so impressed

by the peacefulness of his surroundings that he decided to use it as a retreat to pray and meditate. Today, the beautiful monastery and picturesque church still convey echoes of its storied past, and you will probably also be overcome with a desire to linger a little longer amidst its art, history and nature. The ideal place for those wishing to sojourn in the middle of the lagoon is the Island of Santa Cristina: an annex of Venice’s luxury Aman Hotel. In addition to its meticulous service, this island retreat is enhanced by fisheries, orchards, vineyards and a large villa with a swimming pool. A place where you can relax for a few days, discover peace and enjoy the magnificent view from its panoramic altana (sundeck). If you’re determined to discover the most

authentic side of Venice, we suggest having lunch on the Island of Vignole. Forget luxury, and, after strolling amidst its green spaces and orchards, enjoy the simple yet delectable cuisine offered by Trattoria alle Vignole. Although you’re unlikely to find many tourists here, the island is frequented by numerous Venetians, who have probably taken an opportunity to enjoy a boat ride. Although fish dishes take centre stage, you can also try several dishes made with locally grown vegetables, which therefore have a particularly appealing taste. A great place to sample authentic Venetian gelato is the nearby Island of Certosa, a beautiful Marine Resort and the city’s public park, where amidst boats small and large, you will encounter goats and hares.

BURANO, THE CAPITAL OF HANDMADE LACE After lunch, get ready to head to your last destination of the day: the Island of Burano. Loved by tourists, Burano is famous for its colourful houses and handcrafted lace. Why are there so many different colours? Legend has it that its fishermen, often confused by frequent banks of fog (and, truth be told, by the amount

Basilica, dedicated to Santa Maria Assunta, serves as a reminder of its former splendour. On entering its richly decorated interior, visitors will lose themselves in the narrative of its imposing mosaics located both on its apse and on the church’s counter- façade. When visiting this cathedral, you’ll feel as though you’ve stepped back through the centuries, so enjoy this unique experience! While in Torcello, make sure to capture its essence with your camera. Look for Attila’s Throne and the Devil’s Bridge and celebrate your experiences in these ancient places. Given the time, you’re probably feeling a bit peckish. Apart from the Cathedral, the other main draw is the island’s celebrated Locanda Cipriani. This restaurant is renowned for its legendary cuisine but also for having hosted the author Ernest Hemingway in 1948 and numerous other celebrities. Its garden serves as the perfect setting to relax while waiting to embark on your next adventure. Standout dishes at this unique restaurant include its raw meat ‘carpaccio and its ‘alla Carlina’ sampietro fish dish. End your meal on a high note with one of the venue’s delicious homemade desserts (www.locandacipriani.com).

WHERE NOW | FOCUS A PEACEFUL STAY Connected to Burano by a pedestrian bridge, the Island of Mazzorbo (pictured at the side) abounds in gardens and orchards. The island is home to the walled vineyard of ‘Venissa’, a starred Michelin restaurant and fabulous wine resort (www.venissa.it). Below, left, the Locanda Cipriani restaurant in Torcello, a romantic hideaway where diners can sample traditional Venetian cuisine upgraded with a contemporary twist.

If you’re interested in learning about the art of lace making, don’t miss a visit to Dalla Lidia (it’s advisable to book ahead to make sure that you’ll be welcomed in style), and discover the ins and outs of this magnificent craft. Those wishing to bring an original souvenir home will be spoilt for choice. While in Burano, an absolute must-visit is the luxury home linen atelier owned by Martina Vidal. The heir to a family of four generations of lace makers, this atelier stocks some of the world’s most beautiful linen which can also be made-to-order (www.martinavidal.com). The inimitable beauty of the age-old craft of lace making can also be admired at the La Perla Gallery. Owned by the Buranese Bon family, it stocks a breathtaking array of lace clothing, lingerie and home decor items. 16 W H E R E V E N I C E I J U N E 2017

After visiting the Church of San Martino, renowned for its bell tower, which is as crooked as the leaning Tower of Pisa, head to Carmelina Palmisano to purchase one of its legendary Venetian sweet treats. Although there’s a huge variety, its most famous specialties include its ‘Bussola’ and ‘Esse’ biscuits which can be savoured at the end of a meal, accompanied by a glass of sweet wine. If, prior to departing, you’ve decided to end your visit of the islands here, we suggest that you dine at the Trattoria Da Romano. Named a Historic Venue of Italy, and renowned for its typical island cuisine, it is one of the Lagoon’s most charming artistic restaurants, boasting more than 100 years of history (www.daromano.it). TASTING EXPERIENCE AT VENISSA If, on the other hand, you want to end your day with a last stopover, head to the nearby

island of Mazzorbo. There’s no need to take a boat, you can simply access this island by crossing a bridge. Here you will find Venissa, another enchanted venue (www.venissa.it). This is a walled Vineyard that was recently restored by a Venetian entrepreneur. Venissa is renowned for the cultivation of the ‘Dorona’ grape, which is used to produce one of the Lagoon’s few wines. It was here that Gianluca Bisol, an enlightened entrepreneur, decided to create a winery, a tavern and a restaurant. Headed by chef Francesco Brutto, the winner of numerous awards, this unique venue is the proud recipient of a Michelin star. Its kitchen brigade was recently joined by Anna Cardin, the winner of the best sommelier of Italy award. You can either stay for dinner or enjoy an aperitivo on the ‘Fondamenta’ in front of the tavern whilst admiring a breathtaking Venetian sunset that you won’t forget in a hurry.

The most beautiful It’s called “Rosa Moceniga” and it’s the ultra-feminine fragrance created by the historic brand The Merchant of Venice for connoisseurs of Haute Perfumerie. By Stefania Vida

“R

osa Moceniga” is an ambitious project that The Merchant of Venice decided to develop to pay tribute to a sophisticated flower. A flower whose history has ancient origins that can be traced back to Venice’s perfume-making tradition, sublime craftsmanship, and its age-old trade with the Far East. A rare, precious floral native of China, its name derives from the Mocenigo family, owners of a rose garden in Alvisopoli for the past 200 years. A fragrance that embodies the true essence of this mysterious rose, distinguished by its silvery pink petals whose colour changes according to the season when it blooms. An intense, fruity perfume, this lavishly feminine fragrance is the perfect expression of a rose in its natural habitat. An olfactory composition 20 W H E R E V E N I C E I J U N E 2017

specifically created by a master perfumer using natural raw materials, to recreate the sensuality of the Rosa Moceniga perfume. Finally, for lovers of signature essences, the Museum of Textiles and Costumes with the new itinerary dedicated to perfume is a mustvisit stopover (www.mocenigo.visitmuve.it). The magnificent Palazzo Mocenigo (Santa Croce,1992), a beautifully restored private villa, houses vestiges of a bygone era and other treasures. This is a unique experience dedicated to ‘olden-day’ Venice that is suitable for people of all ages, offering a comprehensive overview of the art of perfume-making, a fascinating mixture of alchemy, science and experimentation! >> www.themerchantofvenice.com

Said invoice must be returned within four months from the date when the document was issued. 6. The refund can be made directly by the Italian retailer (however, make sure that the shop you’ve chosen displays a “Tax Free Shopping” or “Euro Tax Free” sign in its window). 7. Several Tax-Free companies are able to offer immediate VAT cash refunds when the goods leave either Italian or EU territory (thus exonerating the passenger from having to return the invoice to the retailer). However, this procedure only applies at major international airports or main border crossings. Most major department stores have Tax Free Refund offices. 8. The services provided by Tax-Free companies imply the payment of a small administrative sum which is directly deducted from the amount of VAT refunded to the traveller. 9. In the event of a traveller not receiving a VAT refund within a reasonable period of time, he or she should re-contact the Italian retailer or one of the aforementioned companies. 10. However, please note, VAT cannot be refunded directly by customs offices. Source: www.agenziadoganemonopoli.gov.it/ portale/ee/citizen/vta-refund

The Rialto Market

Rialto Market A trip to Venice is not complete without a visit to the Rialto Market, possibly one of the city’s most authentic and traditional experiences. This is one of Venice’s most ancient markets, a one-of-a-kind place crowded with Venetians, shopkeepers and tourists eager to shop. It is located near the Rialto Bridge, on the San Polo side, extending across the Canal Grande, between Campo San Giacomo and Campo della Pescaria. Campo San Giacomo is a beautiful square surrounded by a portico called Sottoportego del Bancogiro, an ancient bank where merchants would gather to negotiate. If you’d like to try the famous 'cicchetti', accompanied by a glass of wine or a spritz, a number of 'bacari', Venice’s traditional ‘osterie’, can also be found in the area. Several of these bars face

onto the opposite side of the building, on a magnificent plaza crowded with tables, and from here, if you walk along the river, you’ll reach a large food market, and finally, the Pescaria, the famous Fish Market. From early morning, on any day of the week (except Sunday) this vibrant place is frequented by Venetian locals, who regularly shop here, browsing its colourful stalls that are located under a loggia near the Grand Canal. Inscriptions about fish-related regulatory measures, proclaimed by the Republic of Venice, can still be found on the walls! >> Fish Market: Open Tues-Sat 7.30amnoon.

Damiani Glassmaking had already become an integral part of life in the Venetian lagoon in the 7th century B.C. Furthermore, after the year 1000 A.D. its production had become so important that it was protected by specific laws: the furnaces used to create the molten glass were a constant fire hazard in the narrow streets of Venice. As a consequence, all the glass workshops were moved to Murano where they are still located today. It was here that eyeglasses were invented in the 13th century and here that, in 1369, mirrors began to be produced. It was also here that, in 1450, Angelo Barovier invented crystal. Glass was a rare commodity throughout the Renaissance: it was only in 1827 that production on an industrial level began. At that point, blown glass or glass produced by lampworking became a highly prized material used for artistic purposes, achieving its height of splendor during the Art Nouveau period. Artists including Lalique, Dammouse and Tiffany

sought out the glassblowers of Murano to produce their famous works. As a result of this experience, during the mid-20th century, real masters of the art began to emerge in Murano including Signoretto, Ballarin, Zanetti and Vidal. Their works are highly coveted objects, true collectors’ items which are often displayed at museums. Murano has numerous glass factories, several of which boast an age-old history (i.e. Barovier&Toso) or a list of particularly prestigious collaborations (i.e. Venini). Crafting authentic Murano glass is no easy task and does not come cheap. Large objects require hours of work, so don’t expect to take your custom-made lamp home on the same day. Furthermore, each piece is unique meaning that small imperfections are an integral part of the value of the object. Finally, the island’s glass factories are equipped to make safe deliveries anywhere in the world… ask your concierge!

Discovering Venice’s art galleries

Galleria Contini.

PHOTO © COURTESY THE ARTIST AND VICTORIA MIRO, LONDON © CHRIS OFILI

Is Venice really a place to buy objet d’art? Definitely! There are so many large and small 20th century and contemporary art galleries in the city that it’s almost impossible to list them all. Where® has selected a pick, renowned for their quality, tradition, or originality. By Romena Brugnerotto Galleria Contini is a must-visit address for modern and contemporary art. Boasting more than 40 years in the business (it’s the oldest gallery in Venice), it exhibits works by important Italian and international artists including Mitoraj, Botero and Giuseppe Veneziano (San Marco 2288, www.continiarte.com). Other galleries, such as Luce Arte Moderna, are renowned for their display of works associated with the city (San Marco 1922, www.gallerialuce.com). The smallest gallery in the city is Giorgio Mastinu Fine Art. Its rich catalogue of works is the result of the multiple passions of its owners and is well worth a visit (San Marco 3126, www.giorgiomastinufineart.it).

Newcomers? Coinciding with the launch of the Biennale, Venice’s gallery scene has been further enriched by the opening of a new branch of Galerie Alberta Pane. The new, 300-square-meter space, a former carpentry shop turned art gallery, will create an artistic link between Paris and Venice. In keeping with the space’s history as a workshop, the gallery will allow artists to give life to ambitious projects such as large scale installations and will offer artist workshops and talks on contemporary art as part of its programs (Dorsoduro 2403/h, www.galeriealbertapane.com).

SHOPPING

Among the new openings, the Victoria Miro Gallery has arrived directly from London to take up residence in the former space of Venice’s historic “Il Capricorno” gallery. The London dealer has brought several of the important artists represented by her to the heart of the city (San Marco 1994, www.victoria-miro.com). Located in the so-called Art Mile, in the sestiere of Dorsoduro which is teeming with museums and galleries, another must-visit venue is Galleria L’Occhio which, until 7 June, will host the works of Tobia Ravà, a Venetian artist renowned for researching the mystic currents of Judaism (San Marco 1994, www.gallerialocchio.net). Must-visit addresses for lovers of photography? The Ikona Photo Gallery housed in the picturesque spaces of the Ghetto Novo. Since 1979, thanks to its association with the Ikona International School of Photography, it has brought the best-known names in international photography to Venice (www.ikonavenezia.com). The ghetto is also home to Melori & Rosenberg, a historic gallery renowned for exhibiting the works of hyperrealist painter Luigi Rocca (Cannaregio 2919, www.melori-rosenberg.com). Fans of photography should also plan a visit to

the Bugno Art Gallery that exhibits the works of well-known Italian photographers including Campigotto, Morucchio and Galimberti (San Marco 1996/d, www.bugnoartgallery.com). It goes without saying that Venice is one of the best places to purchase glass objects. Due to its in-depth knowledge of artistic glass, Berengo Studio 1989 has invited several of the world’s best-known contemporary artists to experiment with this material and create unique pieces (Fondamenta dei Vetrai 109/a, www.berengostudio1989.com). Other go-to spaces in the city include Caterina Tognon who represents the most important artists of Studio Glass (San Marco 2158, www.caterinatognon.com), and the Marina Barovier Gallery which exhibits the most famous works of 20th-century and contemporary artists (San Marco 2158, www.barovier.it).

Galleria L'Occhio. Tobia Ravà, 948 vortice di pace.

Collectors of wearable art should head to OhMyBlue. This unique venue sells contemporary artistic jewelry, bags, accessories, everyday items, glass items, ceramics and porcelain, all carefully selected from the best international offerings available on the market (San Polo 2865, www.ohmyblue.com).

STROLLING THROUGH BURANO

BY STEFANO TRAINE

In addition to Murano and Torcello, this island on the Venetian Lagoon should not be missed. Loved (and widely photographed) by tourists, it is famous for its colourful houses, butter biscuits and above all, its handcrafted lace.

With a population of only three thousand inhabitants, the island’s row of houses, whose facades boast all the colours of the rainbow, are truly spectacular and make it one of the most picturesque places on earth! However, the origin of this tradition of painting the houses in bright colours was not only for aesthetic reasons. Legend has it that its fishermen, often confused by frequent banks of fog, devised a chromatic code that would help them identify their own landing piers more easily. Each colour corresponded to a family, to their house and to their address. BURANO LACE. The island is also the capital of handmade lace, a craft kept alive for centuries by the wives of fishermen waiting for their husbands to return from sea. The work is extremely exacting, with each woman specializing in a single stitch. Since there are seven stitches in total, each piece is passed from woman to woman to finish. Groups of women work diligently for days to produce items, whether large or small, of matchless beauty: trims for dresses, accessories, tablecloths, gloves, umbrellas and masks, all made from this delicate, white lace, crafted with a painstaking attention to detail that has lasted for centuries. While on the island, make sure to visit the Museum of Lace-Making to understand 32 W H E R E V E N I C E I J U N E 2017

why something so exquisite should not become extinct (Piazza Galuppi, 187). GASTRONOMIC TRADITION. Butter biscuits known as Buranelli (either ring or S-shaped) are famous on the island and you will be offered them wherever you go. However, this is not the only specialty that you’ll find. The island has a long-standing gastronomic tradition linked, above all, to fresh fish.

HOW TO REACH BURANO Vaporetto line number 12 runs from the Venice-Fondamente Nove stop to Burano (1 hour). If you’re not in a hurry, the Venetians recommend taking line 14 from San Zaccaria (Pietà stop). Take a look at the venue where the Film Festival is held, and admire the MOSE flood barrier, the huge hydraulic engineering project designed to protect the lagoon.

ADVERTORIAL

LA PERLA GALLERY The Bon family in Burano offers an assortment of only the finest handmade items including antique lace, high quality made-to-order tablecloths, furnishing accessories, household linens, refined silk for lingerie and clothing, christening gowns and children’s clothing (up to age 10), exclusive scarves in silk and cashmere and Venetian masks.

TRATTORIA DA ROMANO Run by the Barbaro family for four generations, this picturesque eatery has retained all of its timeless appeal. Recognized for more than fifty years as one of the few prestigious art restaurants in Venice, Romano manages the trattoria with the help of his wife, Siora Gigia. Standouts include ancient Burano specialties, and the chef’s signature mixed grill cooked over wood.

An island of taste We’re not referring to Stevenson’s Treasure Island or Peter Pan’s Neverland but the Island of Roses, an oasis of taste, and home to starred restaurant Dopolavoro. By Stefania Vida

he name ‘Dopolavoro’, meaning‘after work’ in Italian, says it all. After a day exploring Venice’s labyrinthine streets and treasures, it’s time to relax and indulge in some gourmet fare on an exclusive island only 16 hectares in length. Dopolavoro is an oasis of taste located on the magnificent Island of Roses, the ‘youngest’ island in the Venetian lagoon (founded in 1870), where Chef Giancarlo Perbellini skillfully combines tradition with creativity and originality, making him the star of the kitchen. Thanks to its position, midway between the lagoon and the sea, and to the marine currents that generate a particularly mild and cool microclimate, the island boasts a wealth of vegetation unmatched elsewhere in Venice. 34 W H E R E V E N I C E I J U N E 2017

This includes an olive grove from whose hundreds of trees the island’s olive oil is produced. The first thing that strikes guests arriving at this enchanted venue is the building’s original, picturesque façade, which dates back to 1936. Today it is the kingdom of one of Italy’s most acclaimed chefs, ‘an artisan cook’ as he likes to describe himself, who combines a mastery of tradition with virtuosity and the expertise to upgrade Italy’s famous cuisine. Only 6 months after its official opening, the Dopolavoro restaurant was awarded a Michelin star by Italy’s Michelin Guide. Guest amenities include a free shuttle launch that connects the island to the private docking station in St. Mark’s Square (in front of the Giardinetti Reali). Open seasonally from 7 April to October 2017. Closed on Tuesdays and Wednesdays.

Venice’s famous Clock Tower For centuries, the Venetians’ days have been marked by the chimes of its famous clock tower, a glorious masterpiece of engineering, offering a 360-degree view over the city. By Stefania Vida

ave you been standing in line for hours waiting to visit the terraces of St. Mark’s Basilica? Does the idea of climbing to the top of the Bell Tower to get a bird’s eye view of the city make you feel dizzy? Well, you can always visit the Clock Tower, where the chiming of the bells marks history! Here are a few tips before beginning your tour. Choose a clear day, carry as few bags as possible (the stairway leading to the top is rather narrow) and, finally, since the meeting point for your guided tour (by reservation only) is the ticket office of the Correr Museum, purchase a combined ticket which offers also access to the Correr Museum, the Archaeological Museum, the Monumental Rooms of the Marciana Library and, if you feel like it, the Ducal Palace. 44 W H E R E V E N I C E I J U N E 2017

The tour starts from what was originally the home of the keeper of the Clock Tower, where you can admire its complicated mechanism close-up. The tower was built in 1497 and the clock mechanism still keeps perfect time. On the roof are two large bronze figures, known as ‘Moors’. In addition to the hours and the days, the Clock Tower’s blue and gold face is engraved with zodiac signs and lunar phases. When the tower was first built, and the Moors struck the hour, wooden statues of the three Magi, led by an Angel, emerged from a door of the loggia on the second floor. Following an in-depth renovation, the device that drove the procession of the Magi was restored and, today, the statues emerge from side panels annually on Epiphany and the Feast of the Ascension. torreorologio.visitmuve.it

Based on a project by the famous architect Andrea Palladio, the Basilica was built in 1577 on the island of Giudecca. It contains works by Tintoretto, Veronese and other important Venetian artists.

Although documentation chronicles the presence of a Jewish community in Venice from before the year 1000, it was only during the 6th century, due to political unrest in Europe and a significant increase in non-Christian immigrants that, for the first time, the Venetian Senate, issued a decree stating that the Jewish population should move to a specific part of the city, where they could be better ‘controlled’. Thus Jews were forced to move to this, then, remote northwestern corner of Venice, to an abandoned site of a 14thcentury foundry (‘ghetto’ is old Venetian dialect for "foundry," a word that would soon be used throughout Europe and the world to depict an area where isolated minority groups lived. The Venetian Ghetto nevertheless became a thriving, vibrant district. In 1797, when Napoleon rolled into town, the ghetto was disbanded as an institution, and Jews were free to move elsewhere. Today it is still the center of Venice's ever-diminishing community of Jewish families. Vaporetto lines 4.1, 4.2, 5.1 (Ponte Guglie stop). Map D2

Campanile di San Marco (Bell Tower) This 98.6 metre bell tower is affectionately known to the Venetians as ‘el paron de casa’ (the master of the house) because it dominates the city, observing everything that lies below it. Resting lightly on the exquisite Loggetta del Sansovino, it has a particularly recognizable shape and a rich history. The original medieval bell tower was modified several times, and rebuilt entirely when it unexpectedly collapsed in 1902. It is worth going up to the tower, to enjoy a breathtaking view over the city. Although admission is not free, it is often included in joint tickets. Opening times are subject to change.

Canal Grande (Grand Canal) Although it is known as ‘the most beautiful street in the world’, the Canal Grande is the main waterway of Venice and much more. Lined on both sides by an uninterrupted series of palaces, churches, hotels, and other public buildings, it offers a journey back into history, evoking the pomp and splendor of the ancient Serenissima. For centuries, the Canal has witnessed lavish parties and workshop events, religious processions, capital executions, historical regattas and epidemics. Those visiting Venice should dedicate a few hours to a cruise on the Canal, not only for the pleasure of this experience, but because it offers several of the best panoramic views of Venetian palaces. It is is almost impossible to list all of them, but for more information you can visit the www. canalgrandevenezia.it website. For excursions

A fairytale city Two massive hands, 9 metres high, rise from the Grand Canal and support the Ca’ Sagredo Hotel. These are the weeks when Venice, more than any other time of the year, resembles something out of a fairytale. Titled ‘Support’, this monumental sculpture by renowned artist Lorenzo Quinn was built for the 2017 Venice Art Biennale. The artist’s aim is to focus on the ADVERTORIAL image of hands as a means of either support or destruction. His artwork conveys a desire to support this Venetian building, while simultaneously supporting Venice and the world; all of which are subjected to powerful climate changes and the destruction wrought by mankind. The artist based the hands on those of his son Anthony, and, by doing so, Lorenzo’s aim was to convey a message of hope. For him the hands represent an appeal to future generations to respond to the need to make significant changes in the world. This work was warmly received by Venetians and tourists alike and also, as noted by Lorenzo Quinn during its inauguration, by the Lagoon’s gondoliers, who are notoriously critical about any form of innovation in the city. The best way to admire this sculpture is from a boat on the Grand Canal or on the opposite bank, in the Rialto market area. (R.B.)

Vivaldi, an emotional experience Your list of things to do in Venice this summer has just gotten longer! ‘Viva Vivaldi’, a must-see extravaganza, hosted just steps from St. Mark’s Square, has arrived in the city. By Romena Brugnerotto

t’s difficult to describe this event. The best explanation is that the music of Venetian composer Antonio Vivaldi (1678-1741) – known in Venice as the ‘Red Priest’ and universally recognized as the creator of the ‘Four Seasons’(the most widely performed work in the world), is interwoven with his life in a unique narrative. This presentation offers visitors an opportunity to gain insight into the revered composer’s life and works. It is not just a listening experience dedicated to the most important musician and violin virtuoso of the late baroque period, but a multi-sensory experience, enhanced by olfactory effects, to introduce audiences

to a totally unique, interactive format. Three rooms at the Museo Diocesano, 15-20 excerpts of Vivaldi’s compositions, 35 minutes of listening, immersive HD images and cutting-edge technological solutions, volume mappings and videos and light all interact with architectural elements to create a breathtaking performance of shapes, colours, music and emotions. Based on an interpretation by poet and art director Davide Rondoni, with technical production by Jean-François Touillaud, highly skilled artists and technicians have taken this performance to a whole new level to offer audiences a unique sensorial experience.

A unique performance of sounds, images and music!

OUT OF TOWN | EUGANEAN HILLS

Euganei Hills

A blend of art and nature The Regional Park of the Euganean Hills was established in 1989, and is located southwest of Padua. It offers visitors a unique blend of breathtaking landscapes, history and artistic attractions. While travelling across the plains of the Veneto region, visitors will be astonished by the unexpected sight of the Euganean Hills. Standing in total isolation southwest of Padua, their conical shapes testifies to their volcanic past, though they are never higher than 600 metres. The Regional Park of the Euganean Hills was established in 1989 to protect this area of the volcanic hills that were formed 35 million years ago.

Garden of Villa Barbarigo 56 W H E R E V E N I C E I J U N E 2017

Offering views of rare beauty, they abound in beech and chestnut woods, enhanced by vast expanses of lush meadows and vineyards, interrupted only by picturesque, historic towns, isolated castles and aristocratic dwellings of a bygone era. Veneto’s Euganean Hills are the perfect place to indulge in leisurely excursions on foot, horseback or mountain bikes. Criss-crossed by a vast network of trails and footpaths, the area’s most scenic itineraries include the trail that leads to the Schivanoia waterfall in Teolo, and the path to the Costa Lake. Fed by hot water originating from thermal springs, the lake is the main ‘supplier’ of the therapeutic mud used by the Euganee Spa complex and it is situated just a short distance from Arquà Petrarca, one of the most beautiful towns in Italy. Other attractions worth visiting in the Regional Park include two walled cities. These are Este, encircled by a curtain wall featuring twelve towers, separated by curtain walls with Guelph crenellations and two imposing keeps, whose original plan dates back to 1050, and Monselice, where an ancient medieval castle vies for attention with elegant patrician

dwellings, like Villa Nani-Moncenigo, and the 16th century Villa Emi Capodilista. The imposing remains of a Frederician tower dominate the latter. As far as villas are concerned, the area encompassing the Euganean Hills boasts several noble dwellings. These are renowned for their sophisticated architecture and are set within beautifully tended grounds. The most impressive of these is the 17th century Villa Barbarigo in Galzignano Terme. Its magnificent Baroque garden has 16 fountains, 70 statues, three water features and an ancient boxwood labyrinth. The Colli area is also noted for its picturesque Strada del Vino (Wine Road) which allows visitors to discover one of the area’s most unique Docg wines, ‘Fior d’Arancio’ (‘orange blossom’), a white wine that can be sampled in three different versions: dry, spumante and a sweet ‘passito’ (or dessert wine). From wine to water, part of the Euganean Hills can also be visited aboard a motorboat river cruise. The tour starts from Battaglia Terme and ends in Bassanello on the outskirts of Padua. En-route, visitors can admire the Catajo Castle (1570) and the monumental Villa Molin.

One of the largest and most important spa centres in Europe, the thermal baths in Abano and Montegrotto have been renowned for the therapeutic properties of their water and mud since ancient Roman times. Before gushing to the surface with an average temperature of 75° centigrade, the waters of the Terme Euganee take 25 years to travel 80 kilometres underground at a depth of 3,000 metres. Their journey takes them through calcareous rocks where they are enriched by precious mineral salts that make them the most effective salt-bromine-iodine therapeutic waters of all time. Their extraordinary therapeutic properties were recognized in Roman times (the acronym spa derives from the Latin word salus per aquam, health through water) and were widely enjoyed more than 2,000 years ago by the ancient populations, who settled and succeeded one another in the area. An interesting fact: the ancient Venetians venerated Aponus, the god of thermal waters and curative treatments, hence the name Abano. Although the first thermal facilities were only established in the 18th century, the area of Abano, Montegrotto, Galzignano, Battaglia and Teolo now boasts 130 facilities equipped with spas (and more than 220 swimming pools) offering balneotherapy, the immersion in thermal baths to alleviate muscular and joint pain, and improve skin conditions. Other treatments include hydrokinetic therapy, an ideal therapy for post-traumatic rehabilitation, as well as inhalation therapy and mud therapy. In addition to the curative waters of the Terme Euganee, the local vegetal-mineral mud, obtained from the mineralization of earth and clay and the formation of special microscopic algae, also contains important thermal properties. The Terme Euganee are not only effective for healing. The water and mud are also used for wellness and beauty treatments, including detoxification and relaxing programs, anticellulite and weight-loss massages and anti-

ageing masks to combat the loss of skin tone and restore elasticity. And that’s not all! Once you have completed your treatment regimen, you can take home the exclusive cosmetic of "Venetian Thermal Water", made with local thermal water of the Euganean Hills (www. aquaehotels.it). Between treatments, those wishing to explore the surrounding areas should head to the picturesque town of Battaglia Terme, a romantic location overlooking a series of canals. Other must-visit sites while in the area include the numerous Renaissance villas surrounding Galzignano Terme and the ancient archaeological excavations of Montegrotto Terme, including the three Roman baths decorated with mosaics and

marble flooring. Finally, don’t miss the Casa delle Farfalle (the House of Butterflies) in Montegrotto). This magical place is ‘inhabited’ by live species of butterflies from all over the world. The House of Butterflies is connected to the Bosco delle Fate (the Fairies Wood), an enchanted place, where each tree is associated with a fairytale or legend.

ESSENTIALS

Venice, the Floating City Some information and invaluable tips to experience the best that this magical city on water has to offer. By Simona P. K. Daviddi Italians (at least many of them), may already know that Venice… actually floats! Unlike Amsterdam or Saint Petersburg, it is not just furrowed by canals, bordered by roads and pavements. In Venice, canals are the only available communication route, bearing in mind that part of the city extends over a handful of beautiful islands that are scattered across the Lagoon. For this reason, the lagoon city can only be crossed on foot or by boat. Cars, motorbikes, bicycles and even roller skates are strictly forbidden. But this is not all. At times Venice may find itself... under water! The acqua alta phenomenon – the result of heavy rainfall and high tides - can cause the water level to rise by as much as a meter, forcing everyone to walk on raised plank walkways, or don rain boots (many shops, including tobacconists, sell disposable 58 W H E R E V E N I C E I J U N E 2017

ones) in order to cross the city’s flooded calli, campielli and salizade. Calli, campielli and salizade are Venetian words used to identify streets, squares and alleys while sestieri is the local word indicating the six districts the city is divided into: San Marco, Dorsoduro, Cannaregio, Santa Croce, San Polo and Castello. This division dates back to the 12th century and also includes areas such as La Giudecca, the Island of San Giorgio Maggiore (San Marco) and the Island of San Michele, home to the city’s cemetery (Castello). Street numbers in each sestiere start from 1 and often reach four figures, for example, one of the last numbers of the sestiere of Castello is 7,000. You need to learn them if you want to find your way through the spectacular, maze-like historic centre.

Venice also has its own network of public... and private transportation: its vaporetti, real waterbuses, are the most popular craft used by locals, which is why they are often very crowded during peak hours. These enginepowered water taxis are able to whiz across the lagoon in a heartbeat, but for those who prefer a unique, incredibly romantic experience, the famous, distinctive gondola is an absolute must. This elegant, black, one-oared rowing boat drifts gently across the water, while its gondolier sings an entire repertoire of traditional Venetian folk songs. It goes without saying that the waters of the canals are not suitable for swimming, and their banks are often slippery. Be careful not to be so focused on your selfie stick that you walk into a canal because you might be in for some © PAOLA DALLA VALENTINA rather unpleasant surprises!

Cannaregio, like Castello, is the largest and most densely populated district of Venice. Its name probably derives from the expanse of reeds found in the swamps on which it was built. Castello takes its name from the castle of which traces still remain today. It extends around the Arsenale and includes the Gardens of the Biennale and the Riva degli Schiavoni. Dorsoduro is named after the compact sand dunes found in this area. It overlooks both the Grand Canal and the Giudecca Canal, along which the long promenade known as the Fondamenta delle Zattere stretches.

San Marco takes its name from the Basilica. This is the city’s main sestiere because it houses the palaces that once constituted the government of Venice until its fall. San Polo, which takes its name from the church of San Polo, is the geographic centre of Venice. It stretches from the highest part of the Rialto Bridge and is the place where the Rialto fish and vegetable market is held. Santa Croce takes its name from the ancient church of the same name which unfortunately was demolished under Napoleon’s rule. It includes the Stazione Marittima and the piazzale Roma terminal, a junction for train and road transport (buses, cars) and lagoon traffic (ferries, vaporetti or water buses).

GETTING AROUND VENICE Because it is a relatively small, compact city (a 45-minute walk from North to South) whose main points of interest are situated just a short distance from each other, visiting Venice on foot is the ideal solution.

Gondolas, a tourist’s dream!

A hallmark symbol of Venice, who has never dreamt of riding on one of these marvels of craftsmanship, whose charms have withstood the test of time? The components (approximately 280) of these extraordinary craft still bear their almost fairytale-like names of the past: ‘sankòni’, ‘fiùboni’, ‘solarai’ and ‘maistre’... To name but a few.

60 W H E R E V E N I C E I J U N E 2017

Tradition has it that each gondolier has his own gondola, custommade according to his weight and height. Among the most ancient boatyards (or 'squeri'), the most remarkable is perhaps that of Domenico Tramontin and Sons. Established in 1884, it was the supplier to the House of Savoy, the Prefecture and the Commune of Venice (Dorsoduro, 1542. www.tramontingondole.it). An interesting feature that you are bound to notice on a gondolier’s uniform is the logo. Its most recent version was created by the Style Department of Duca d’Aosta, a shop established in 1902 in the Rialto neighbourhood by Emilio Ceccato. The logo features St. Mark as the Winged Lion, holding an open book, a symbol of peace and strength, framed by two 'ferri' – the traditional iron gondola prow ornaments (also known in Venetian as 'fero da próva' or 'dolfin'). Bringing one home as a keepsake is neither easy (nor cheap!), but you can avoid this by purchasing a souvenir created ad hoc. Where? At Emilio Ceccato’s clothing and accessory store, the official supplier and technical sponsor of the Associazione Gondolieri di Venezia (The Gondolier’s Association of Venice) in San Polo 16/17 (T: 041 5222700) and in San Marco, 257 (T: 041 8478885). www.emilioceccato.com

THE LIDO OF VENICE

Although the Lido is Venice’s beach, it is also much more. An island, a town with its own history and a nature reserve, it is also a jet-setters’ paradise, with luxury hotels and exclusive villas. In September, it becomes the world capital of cinema.

The Lido (meaning beach in Italian) is a separate island from Venice. Measuring less than 200 metres in depth in certain areas, it is a 12km stretch of sand, strategically positioned between the Lagoon and the open sea, only connected to the city and dry land by ‘vaporetti’ or ferry boats. The clear difference between the Lido and Venice is that the Lido has real streets, which means you get around by car. In mid-November, Rolls Royce’s, Cadillac’s and Bentleys abound at the entrances of grand hotels. However, today, it is considered chicer to access the Lido by boat or explore it on foot or by bicycle.

WHAT TO SEE - The nature reserve and wild sand dunes of the Alberoni, recognized and protected by the WWF since 1997, are the perfect place for a quick swim. The area comprises 160 hectares of land, including two kilometers of golden sand dunes that extend from Murazzi to the Alberoni dam, and a beautiful pine forest. For a natural beach experience, the Lido also offers several free beaches, like the sandy dunes of San Nicolò, the rocky outcrops of the Murazzi, or the beach known to the Venetians as ‘Bluemoon”.

LIKE A SCENE FROM A MOVIE One of the most memorable scenes from ‘Death in Venice’ (1971), the cinematographic masterpiece directed by Luchino Visconti, shot on the beach of the Lido in Venice. Photo © Mario Tursi, Archivio Storico del Cinema.

Among other attractions, the area is home to an exclusive golf club set against a stunning backdrop of umbrella pines and poplars. Founder of the famous automotive house and an avid fan of Venice, Henry Ford commissioned the course in 1926, when he discovered to his disappointment that there was nowhere else where he could play golf, a sport widely practiced in America, but not in Italy at that time.

WHERE TO GO - Moving to the other end of the island, we find Malamocco, a small, ancient town that offers visitors a mini experience of Venice with its canals, ‘campielli’ and ancient buildings. Also dating back to olden times, in a more northerly direction, is the settlement of San Nicolò, featuring a Benedictine complex built in the 11th century. WHAT TO DO - Don’t miss a walk, or even better, a bike ride along the Murazzi, the remains of ancient fortresses which are now used as a race track. Bicycles are provided by several of the island’s hotels. If you happen to be there at the right time, you will be treated to a breathtaking sunset. What’s more, you’ll also get a glimpse of a wilder, more untamed side of Venice, amidst the boats and fishermen searching for clams. One of the island’s rituals, that you should not miss is having a ‘spritz’: the Venetian cocktail or aperitivo par excellence. You won’t have any trouble finding one at any bar on the Gran Viale, the Lido’s promenade. If you’re not pressed for time you can catch a boat from the Gran Viale to Pellestrina (where you can eat fabulously fresh fish, or a sandwich with fried sardines), or travel to Chioggia, a second, smaller Venice that abounds in fabulous small restaurants.
