Venice Biennale
The 56th Venice Biennale, All the Worlds Futures, opens this month. Academy Fellows and Residents in the exhibition are Terry Adkins, FAAR 2010, Patricia Cronin, FAAR 2007, Jenny Holzer RAAR 2004, and Bruce Nauman, RAAR 1987.
We wish Terry Adkins were here for his inclusion in the Biennale. Lone Wolf Recital Corps says, “Big ups to curator Okwui Enwezor for keeping Terry's work in the global conversation about art of out time and putting it on the international stage.” An oral history interview with Terry by Calvin Reid has been recently published in Bomb Magazine. The book Terry Adkins:Recital edited by Ian Berry will be released this month and can now be pre-ordered at Amazon.
Bruce Nauman is represented by a series of text-based neon sculptures made from 1972 to the early 1980s.

Another solo Collateral Event features Jenny Holzer’s War Paintings. The works on exhibit at Museo Correr have been selected from a decade of the artist’s war paintings, a significant departure from the LED installations for which Holzer is best known.
