A BLEND OF CONTEMPORARY ART AND GLASS

Glasstress 2017 is one of the major off-site events at the 57th Venice Biennale this year, bringing together 40 leading contemporary artists from Europe, the US, the Middle East and China. An ambitious contemporary art exhibition exploring the infinite possibilities of glass at two historic locations: Palazzo Franchetti in Venice, and the Berengo Exhibition Space, an old converted furnace in Murano. This year’s edition showcases a spectacular list of artists including Ai Weiwei, Jan Fabre, Abdulnasser Gharem, Paul McCarthy, Laure Prouvost, Ugo Rondinone, Thomas Schütte and Sarah Sze. Although they have little or no experience with glassmaking, these artists accepted the challenge of collaborating with master glassblowers from Murano to create a selection of remarkable artworks.

Amongst some of the notable works featured at this year’s edition is the imposing installation by Belgian artist Koen Vanmechelen titled ‘Protected Paradise’, which addresses the themes of recycling and sustainability, and is located in the garden of Palazzo Franchetti.

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 MAY NOVEMBER 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. 10 DAYS OF MUSIC - This year, the 61st International Festival of Contemporary Music (29 September-8 October) pays tribute to the Orient. "The theme of the Orient is a thread that runs through this year’s programme connecting many of the concerts” – commented Director Ivan Fedele. “It is a thread that winds through the rich traditions and techniques of this vast region and has punctuated the creative process of some of the most luminous composers of the Asian continent, representing China, Korea and Japan. These composers also have been influenced by the West, which makes for an interesting musical synergy.”

Discovering Venetian treasur

Venice’s Scuole Grandi are some of the world’s most unique treasures. Use Where® ‘s insider guide to discover these amazing places. The tour includes interesting historic and artistic facts, a few shopping tips and culinary delights… BY ROMENA BRUGNEROTTO

Scuola Grande di San Rocco 10 W H E R E V E N I C E I O C TO B E R 2017

hen visiting Venice, people often overlook certain buildings renowned for their historic value and artistic treasures. These are the ‘Scuole’, brotherhoods or associations of lay members in the ancient Republic of Venice, who met to provide assistance to people in need. The ‘Scuole’ are typically Venetian, and are rarely found in other cities. Halfway between a church and a palazzo, these architectural masterpieces characterize several of Venice’s ‘campi’ (city squares). Boasting a history dating back to medieval times, the confraternities headquartered at the Scuole were established with the aim of providing assistance and mutual aid to members, specific to the professions practiced in their respective guilds. The ‘Scuole’ were well-organized institutions and their networks included hospitals and hospices. The number of these ‘Scuole’ was significant. In fact, in the 16th century a Venetian historian documented the presence of as many as 201: six of these were honoured with the title, ‘Scuole Grandi’. To this day as they did in the past, several confraternities in Venice fulfill this traditional role. Several of the most important artists of the period, with the ambition of outshining each other, contributed to the construction and decoration of these ‘Scuole’, whose beauty continues to captivate and amaze visitors from all over the world. The organization of each of their spaces was more or less the same with their opulent facades opening onto a large salon on the ground floor for ceremonies, while the upper floor was intended for meetings of the Chapter. Just a short distance from Piazzale Roma, in the sestiere of Dorsoduro, you can find two examples that due to their importance and number of members were classified as ‘Scuole Grandi’. The Scuola Grande di San Rocco is a spellbinding place, and a shrine to the skills of the artist, Tintoretto, one of the city’s acknowledged grand masters. Its beautiful façade, with its dazzling exterior reflecting the light of the moon on summer evenings, was built in 1516 based on a project by Bartolomeo Bon. Over time, his original project was modified by the work of other architects to create an architectural masterpiece infused with styles ranging from Renaissance to Baroque. An interesting fact: Tintoretto won the commission to paint the building because he surprised everyone in a competition between the best artists of Venice. Instead of producing sketches as requested, he actually painted San Rocco in the centre of the ceiling, saying that he wished to gift it to San Rocco. He won the competition, surpassing artists of the caliber of Veronese and Salviati.

w w w.wh e re t ravel e r. com 11

WHERE NOW | FOCUS In addition to the splendid ceiling panel, he also documented both Old and New Testament scenes in the Sala Capitolare upstairs. In this breathtaking venue, more than 60 paintings adorning the walls of the Scuola survived the fall of the Republic and are still showcased in their original spaces (see opening pages). This Scuola can be visited daily from 9.30am to 5.30pm. www.scuolagrandesanrocco.org

Now that you’re here, carry on just a little further and walk along Rio Marin, located behind the Scuola. In addition to capturing some great shots of this area, which is rarely frequented by tourists, you’ll find a selection of bars and restaurants where you can stop for a break. The other two ‘Scuole’ that we suggest are located in the sestiere of Castello. Though only 10 minutes from St. Mark’s Square, you’ll probably have a little difficulty locating the Scuola Dalmata di San Giorgio degli Schiavoni because it’s off the beaten track. 12 W H E R E V E N I C E I O C TO B E R 2017

Scuola Grande di San Giovanni Evangelista

GENTILE BELLINI [PUBLIC DOMAIN], VIA WIKIMEDIA COMMONS

Just a little further one, you’ll find the Scuola Grande di San Giovanni Evangelista. Boasting more than 750 years of history, its unusual entrance makes it easily identifiable. Pietro Lombardo built the courtyard, which is protected by a marble screen, between 1478 and 1481. Lombardo, who was one of Italy’s most important Renaissance sculptors, created an elegant, sophisticated ambience. A magnificent eagle pediment, the symbol of San Giovanni Evangelista, and two angels adoring the cross (referencing the relic housed in the Scuola) dominate the whole. The complex features different decorative styles. Unfortunately however, following the suppression of the confraternity, many works were moved to other places. But you can admire the ‘Oratorio della Croce’, where the famous relic is housed. The most celebrated Cross relic in Venice, it was represented in paintings by Gentile Bellini and Vittore Carpaccio. These paintings, which formerly adorned the walls of the Scuola, are now preserved in the Accademia Galleries. Also noteworthy are the entrance door, the double Renaissance staircase by Mauro Codussi and the ‘Sala Capitolare’ on the upper floor. www.scuolasangiovanni.it

TRACES OF HISTORY Real museums, among other things, the centuries-old history of the Scuole Grandi is told through exquisite works of art. On the page at the side, the complex of San Giovanni Evangelista characterized by a white and green marble portal, and below, the canvas depicting ‘The Miracle of the Relic of the True Cross’ by Gentile Bellini, now preserved in the Accademia Galleries. On this page, a view of the Scuola di San Giorgio degli Schiavoni, and below, Vittore Carpaccio’s masterpiece ‘St. George slaying the Dragon’.

Venetians used the word ‘Schiavoni’ to refer to the inhabitants of Dalmatia, with whom the Republic had important trade relations. Though smaller than the other ‘Scuole’, it is no less attractive; one of the main reasons to visit it is the awe-inspiring narrative painting cycle that covers the walls, created by Renaissance master Vittore Carpaccio. Thanks to a Napoleonic decree, the ‘Scuola’ was able to preserve its artistic heritage intact, including the famous paintings by Carpaccio.

Beyond its Istrian marble façade, you can admire works depicting episodes from the lives of the Dalmatian saints George, Tryphon and Jerome, whose remains are preserved at the Scuola. Among these works, several of the most famous include ‘St. George slaying the Dragon’ and Carpaccio’s masterful ‘Vision of St. Augustine’ which faithfully describes the interior of a 15th-century study. www.scuoladalmatavenezia.com

Just steps from the Scuola, you’ll find two unusual shops that are well worth browsing. The first, called Banco Lotto n. 10 (Salizada Sant’Antonin, 3478/A) sells eye-catching 60’s style dresses made by the female inmates of the Women’s Penitentiary of Giudecca, who enthusiastically dedicate themselves to the art of dressmaking.

The last hidden gem on our tour is the Scuola Grande di San Marco, a part of the city’s hospital dedicated to SS. Giovanni e Paolo. Originally founded in 1260 for humanitarian purposes, by the middle of the 16th century it had become so wealthy and influential that it was named after the city’s patron saint. The confraternity decided to build its ‘Scuola’ next to one of Venice’s most important churches, the church of SS. Giovanni e Paolo, where many Doges are buried. Following a fire in 1485, it was rebuilt in an even more opulent style thanks to the contribution of several of the era’s most notable artists, including Pietro Lombardo, Jacopo Sansovino and Mauro Codussi. Featuring narratives of episodes from the life of St. Mark by Bellini, Palma il Vecchio and Mansueti and Bordon, the ‘Sala dell’Albergo’, where the confraternity met, is one of the most spectacular feats of Venetian Renaissance architecture, admired by academics from all over Europe. Although the ‘Scuola’ was denuded of many of its masterpieces, it still hosts several important works of art. One of its most noteworthy attractions is its library, which hosts more than 8,000 medical books. The Scuola can be visited from Monday to Saturday from 9.30am to 1.00pm and from 2pm to 5pm. www.scuolagrandesanmarco.it End your visit of the area on a high note and admire the equestrian statue in the piazza. This is a rarity in Venice because, as you might have noticed, this is one of only two such

public monuments. It commemorates Bartolomeo Colleoni, one of Venice’s most loyal mercenary commanders, who bequeathed most of his riches to Venice on one condition, that the city erected a commemorative statue to him in St. Mark’s Square. Since not even a Doge had ever won such an honor in Venice, the Senate found a solution, by placing the monument in front of the Scuola Grande di San Marco, one of the most important ‘scuole’ in the city which, as luck would have it, was dedicated to its patron saint… Venetian pragmatism!

Venetian virtuosity To enjoy an old-world atmosphere, exquisite carnival costumes and performances by world-class musicians year-round, head to a concert starring I Musici Veneziani. Formed in 1996, and comprising a carefully selected number of virtuoso musicians and singers, this retro ensemble stages performances at one of the city’s most beautiful concert halls, the Salone Capitolare of the Scuola Grande di San Teodoro, in the heart of Rialto.

CORTE

when crossing it and because the city’s mint was located at its easternmost end. In 1250, its wooden piles were replaced by a mobile structure and its name was changed to the Rialto bridge. A dark period followed. In fact, during this time, the bridge collapsed and was damaged several times. It was only in 1588 that the Senate of the Serenissima decided to announce a competition to finally rebuild a stone bridge. Numerous renowned architects submitted their projects, including Sansovino, Vignola and Palladio. However the daring but scenically impact-making design submitted by the aptly named Antonio da Ponte was chosen. His bridge consisted of a single 22 meter stone arch span, supported by a broad rectangular deck carrying two arcades of shops and ‘botteghe’ fronting on three roadways. Legend has it that da Ponte was visited by Satan himself who, in exchange for his help, asked the architect to pledge the soul of the first person crossing the bridge to him. The architect thought that he would trick Satan by having a cock cross the bridge for the first time. However, on learning about this deception, Satan vindicated himself by tricking da Ponte’s pregnant wife into crossing the bridge. Her child was stillborn, and according to legend, its soul wandered haplessly, for years, on the Rialto bridge, until a gondolier finally helped it to cross over to the other side. A HUB OF COMMERCE The Rialto Bridge is the dividing line between the districts of San Marco and San Polo. It is lined on both sides by shops, and includes 120 steps. Right, the Rialto Market, a one-of-akind place crowded with Venetians and tourists. Below, the Erbaria market selling fruit and vegetables, and the Pescaria (fish market).

Even the famous street market boasts a storied past. In fact, historic documents testify to its presence way back in 1097 when it was much larger than its current counterpart and sold exotic goods and spices and precious fabrics. THE FAMOUS MARKET. Currently Venice’s market par excellence, it is divided into the Pescaria, where fish caught in the lagoon are sold, and the Erbaria, whose vendors sell only the freshest, seasonal fruit and vegetables. Although a visit to this market means elbowing one’s way among throngs of Venetian shoppers, the market nevertheless boasts two gems of historic and artistic interest: a loggia dating back to 1907 featuring a blaze of maritime and symbolic decorations, including a number of esoteric elements that are mixed in with the fish, lobsters and octopi sculpted on the capitals of its colonnade. More attentive visitors will also notice a marble plaque embedded in one of its red brick facades,

which shows regulations set centuries ago for minimum allowable sizes for lagoon fish. FOR SHOPPING ADDICTS. However, Rialto also means shopping. While strolling through the ‘rione’s’ tiny streets or when crossing its bridge, you’ll come across several unusual shops that are imbued with the atmosphere of a bygone era. These include antique shops, artisans’ workshops, old book binding shops where books are still bound according to time-honoured tradition, and jewelry stores selling original creations made from Murano glass beads. On the other hand, those in search of an amazing experience, should head to the old post office which now houses the T Fondaco dei Tedeschi, a lavish, highend department store and a magnificent feat of architecture that has been updated to brilliantly balance the old with new. The building boasts a marvelous terrace offering visitors a 360-degree view over Venice.

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 and all the glass workshops were moved to Murano. It was here that eyeglasses were invented in the 13th century and here that, in 1369, mirrors began to be produced. 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. During the mid-20th century, real masters of the art began to emerge in Murano including Signoretto, Ballarin, Zanetti and Vidal and their works are true collectors’ items which are often displayed at museums. Murano today has numerous glass factories, several of which boast an age-old history or a list of particularly prestigious collaborations (i.e. Venini).

Tax Free Refund Guide 1. VAT (in Italian: IVA) is a value added tax on goods and services, and is part of the European Union’s value added tax system. 2. In some cases, travellers may be granted a VAT refund. This refund does not cover the services supplied by hotels, restaurants, taxis or agencies. 3. You may be eligible for a VAT refund provided that: • you are a non EU resident; • the goods purchased are intended for personal or family use only and are carried in your luggage; • the overall value of the goods purchased exceeds 154,94 Euro (VAT included); • the purchase is certified by an invoice. This invoice should include a description of the goods purchased, your personal information as well as the details of your passport or any other equivalent document; • the goods leave EU territory by the end of the third month after the month that you bought them; • several specific customs formalities are complied with; • the invoice is returned to the Italian retailer within four months after the purchase was made. 4. The goods purchased and the relevant invoice must be shown at the customs exit point when leaving EU territory (if you intend to pack the purchased items into your check-in luggage, you must go to Customs BEFORE checking in). 5. After leaving EU territory, the traveller must return the original invoice, regularly endorsed by the customs office, to the Italian retailer. 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

Discovering Venice’s art galleries

Galleria Contini

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).

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). 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 indepth 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).

STROLLING THROUGH BURANO

VENETIANS

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. BY STEFANO TRAINE

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 36 W H E R E V E N I C E I O C TO B E R 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.

LIDO DI VENEZIA

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. BY ELENA BINDA

The Lido (meaning beach in Italian) is a separate island from Venice. Measuring less than 200m 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

GOURMET TIPS. The ultimate spot for a relaxing break, since it first opened La Favorita (below) boasts a timeless, intimate ambience, where diners can expect an authentic Venetian menu featuring a fabulous selection of traditional fish dishes.

SPECIAL EVENTS - For many years the Lido has been the playground of celebrities and crowned heads. It all begans in the second half of the 19th century when the international jet-set discovered its long sandy beaches. It is therefore not surprising that in August 1932 the terrace of the Hotel Excelsior hosted the first film festival. Then, a special location, the Palazzo del Cinema, was assigned to the most glamorous event of the year, the Venice Film Festival. At the end of summer, the festival turns the sleepy Lido into a mini Hollywood, attracting rising stars of the screen, eager to be photographed, plus hordes of fans, film buffs and onlookers. w w w.wh e re t ravel e r. com 39

n a city like Venice,” wrote the critics, “continuing to amaze people is an arduous task”. However, the new Met Restaurant (its full name is the ‘New Met Restaurant e Rose Room di Raptus & Rose’) has managed to pull this off. The magic begins with the locale. We find ourselves in the hotel where Antonio Vivaldi came to compose, Sigmund Freud to ponder and Thomas Mann to write. Gloria Beggiato, the visionary heiress of a family of hoteliers, catapulted the hotel into the new millennium, by creating a luxury, five-star hotel brimming over with personality. The enogastronomic experience lives up to the expectations of the venue. In 2005, the Met was awarded a Michelin star and since 2012, the restaurant has been headed by 40 W H E R E V E N I C E I O C TO B E R 2017

Luca Veritti, a chef who trained under maestros like Gualtiero Marchesi and the Cerea brothers. The magic has now come full circle thanks to a fabulous restyling project. Opened last July, the New Met carries the signature of Silvia Bisconti, the brainchild of Raptus & Rose, a couture fashion house. On arrival, guests find themselves immersed in an enchanting, secluded dining room surrounded by Murano glass lamps, Fortuny fabrics, antiques and design objects an explosion of colours, mirrored in the floral aesthetic of the dishes.

See page 40 Via Francesco Duodo, 33. Lido di Venezia. T: 041 5261626.

Portrait of a human being in a room

key exponent of British Pop Art, eightyyear-old, British born, California-based artist David Hockney is considered one of the most influential artists of his generation in many spheres. In 2013, in the aftermath of a personal tragedy involving the accidental death of a studio assistant and after years spent in London, Hockney moved back to Los Angeles. Deeply distressed, Hockney found himself unable to paint. In the depths of this artistic and personal crisis he began painting a portrait of a co-worker sitting in a chair. This portrait was followed by another eighty, featuring different people, each adopting different poses and different expressions, but always seated on the same chair. The result is fascinating exploration of the human figure and 50 W H E R E V E N I C E I O C TO B E R 2017

his sitters’ multi-faceted temperaments. Eighty-two works, all with the same dimensions, form a taxonomy of types and characters; a visual essay that transcends classifications of gender, identity or nationality. These works are currently on display at Ca’ Pesaro in Venice. Considered a masterpiece of Venetian Baroque, this grandiose 17th century palazzo is now entirely given over to modern art. Insider tip: on exiting the exhibition space, visitors will find a workshop where they are invited to test their portraiture skills: for adults and children. >> David Hockney 82 Portraits and 1 Still-life Ca’ Pesaro International Gallery of Modern Art. capesaro.visitmuve.it

Ghetto di Venezia

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

Piazza San Marco (St. Mark’s Square)

Known throughout the world, this square is the heart of Venice and its most symbolic landmark. It consists of a central, trapezoid-shaped unit integrated with other areas. Measuring 170 metres in length, it faces directly onto the water and is surrounded by several magnificent stately buildings. Its incalculable scenic beauty makes it one of the most widely-photographed places in the world. The best thing to do here is to look around and exult, but don’t forget that the square has a number of specific landmark sites, whose interiors can also be visited: the Basilica of San Marco (see listing), the Bell Tower (see listing), Palazzo Ducale (see Museums listings), the Clock Tower (see listing) and some 18th century cafés, the Florian and the Quadri, to mention the bestknown...

The Bridge of Sighs is a Baroque bridge that, by crossing the Rio di Palazzo, once connected the Palazzo Ducale to the prisons, and today it is one of Venice’s most romantic sights.

Originally built during medieval times as a pontoon bridge at the canal’s narrowest point to facilitate access to the popular Rialto Market, it is still a hub of commerce and is lined on both sides by shops. Unfortunately, it is not accessible to everyone; between upward and downward slopes, it includes as many as 120 steps. San Polo, 30125 (access from Ruga dei Oresi or from Salizada Pio X).

A new initiative of significant cultural and symbolic interest has launched in Venice. An expert guide will accompany visitors on a tour dedicated to discovering the Ghetto, a city landmark imbued with an old-world atmosphere. The tour includes a visit to three synagogues, the spiritual and artistic heart of the Ghetto, as well as one to the ancient pawn shop, the Banco Rosso or Red Bench (with the screening of a documentary about its history).

Generally referred to as “La Salute,” this crown jewel of 17th-century baroque architecture proudly stands at a commercially and aesthetically important point, almost directly opposite the Piazza San Marco, where the Grand Canal empties into the lagoon. Designed by Longhena, whose work was influenced by Palladio, it was constructed to honor the Virgin Mary for delivering Venice from the plague of 1630.

The islands

Although the whole of Venice lies on an archipelago, an ‘excursion to the islands’ generally means a half-day cruise on a boat to visit the islands of Murano, Torcello and Burano, three charming, small islands, rich in history and tradition. Murano is famous throughout the world for its hand-blown glass (artisanal workshops still display glassmakers at work). Torcello, birthplace of the lagoon, once a thriving town with 8,000 inhabitants, is today a semirural island with only 17 permanent residents and two medieval churches that speak poignantly of past glories, and Burano, one of the most photographed sights in the world, thanks to colourful houses reflected in its canals. Burano is also famous for its artisanal lace work and a particular kind of biscuit, which also resembles lace. Find out more and buy tickets for your trip to these magical destinations.

Located on the left-hand side of the Grand Canal, just beyond the Church of the Madonna della Salute, you will come across a building that seems strange and unfinished, but is also elegant and well-tended. The Palazzo Venier dei Leoni, formerly home to the prominent and powerful Venier family, was originally planned to become one of the most sumptuous buildings in Venice. Construction of the palazzo began in or around 1748, but was halted after only one floor was completed. Undeterred by its rather sketchy shape, and upon seeing the palazzo with its beautiful garden, eccentric American heiress Peggy Guggenheim, a lover of modern art, la dolce vita and men, fell in love with it. She purchased Palazzo Venier in 1948, and moved in with her collection of

THE HEIRESS AND HER LOVE OF ART The niece of Solomon R. Guggenheim, Peggy was born in New York in 1898 into a wealthy Jewish family. Following the death of her father on the Titanic in 1912, Peggy Guggenheim inherited a small fortune, becoming one of the richest women in America. She lived between Paris and London. She became a patron of the arts and a collector of contemporary art. Peggy was always surrounded by artists and lovers: she married the writer and Dadaist painter Laurence Vail and then Surrealist artist Max Ernst. After opening an art gallery in London and another in New York, in 1948 Peggy was invited to exhibit her collection of paintings at the Biennale of Venice. She fell in love with the city where she spent the rest of her life.

contemporary art, subsequently opening both the palazzo and her extraordinary collection of artworks to the public. In 1980, after her death, the Peggy Guggenheim Collection was bequeathed to the Solomon R. Guggenheim Foundation, which also manages the Solomon R. Guggenheim in New York and the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao. In 1985, Palazzo Venier dei Leoni was officially converted into a museum. Today, thanks to its 20th century collection of art, it is considered one of the most important museums in Europe. The collection includes masterpieces of Cubism, Futurism, European Abstractism, American Abstract Surrealism and Expressionism, as well as works by illustrious artists like Picasso, Pollock, Kandinsky, Miró, de Chirico and Dalí. It also hosts prestigious temporary exhibitions. www.guggenheim-venice.it

Her life-sized installations of young swimmers offer visitors an unexpected moment of profound contemplative serenity at the Marinaressa Gardens, until 5 December 2017. In an interview, Feuerman described her works as follows: “While their outward appearance is often one of beauty and tranquility, their faces mask a deeper meaning of heroism, endurance, balance and triumph.” A unique, off-the-beaten track experience, just steps from the canals of the lagoon. Vaporetto line 1 or 2 (Giardini stop).

ENTERTAINMENT

A truly Venetian experience

egardless of the weather, one of the Venetians’ favourite pastimes, both in summer and winter, is a ‘bacaro tour’. So what’s a 'bacaro'? In Venice, a bacaro is an unusual type of locale: often in cramped surroundings but full of life. It is a small bar (but don’t call it this when talking to a Venetian) that serves classical Spritzes, glasses of red or white wine and ‘cicchetti’. Cicchetti are typical Venetian snacks to be eaten while sipping a glass of wine and gossiping with friends. Each bacaro has its own menu of cicchetti, including crostini topped with meat, fish or vegetables but also ‘polpette’ (meatballs) made with meat, fish or cheese. After ordering one or two cicchetti at the counter, it’s customary to exit the bacaro, glass in hand, and continue your 56 W H E R E V E N I C E I O C TO B E R 2017

conversation on the street. After a while, it’s time to move on to another locale to sample different specialties. People often make arrangements to meet after work, promising themselves just one Spritz and one cicchetto before dinner, only to find themselves ending up at three different bacari with no appetite for dinner. However, the bacaro tour is also an experience that can be enjoyed by visitors to Venice. All that’s needed is a desire to try new food and a pair of comfortable shoes. Depending on tastes and budgets, you can indulge in a variety of experiences. The tour also caters to Vegans and Vegetarians and children are welcome although underage drinking is not permitted. Tours generally start at around 6pm and last for a few hours.

BACARO TOUR Where® has selected three must-try ‘bacari’ located in three different ‘sestieri’. Patronized by young Venetian locals, just steps from the station, Al Timon (Cannaregio, 2754 – Fondamenta Ormesini) serves a great selection of cicchetti and wine on boats moored in front of the locale. Renowned for its impeccable service, top-class vintages, sandwiches and platters of cold cuts and cheeses, Ai Rusteghi is a lovely little wine bar tucked behind the Rialto bridge (Campiello del Tentor). Opened at the turn of the 20th century, Al Bottegon (Dorsoduro, 992 – Fondamenta Nani) serves a selection of creative cicchetti that can be ordered at the counter throughout the day.

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 O C TO B E R 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).

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 O C TO B E R 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
