Adriano Pedrosa, curator of the 60th Venice Biennale, today announced at a press conference in Venice the list of artists participating in the biennale. Titled Stranieri Ovunque – Foreigners Everywhere, the international exhibition will feature 333 artists and collectives. Pedrosa described that as a guiding principle, the 2024 edition has favoured artists who have never participated in the International Exhibition, though a number of them may have presented as part of a national pavilion and a few were part of collateral events and previous international exhibitions. The Exhibition will take place in the Central Pavilion in the Giardini and in the Arsenale, and it will present two sections: the Nucleo Contemporaneo and the Nucleo Storico, where the latter is dedicated to global modernisms and modernisms in the Global South. Special attention is being given to outdoor projects, both in the Arsenale and in the Giardini, and to a performance programme for the preview and closing weekend of the exhibition.
The 60th Venice Biennale will open to the public from 20 April to 24 November 24 2024, with the preview on 17–19 April. The full list of artists is:
