Malta's Pavilion at the Venice Biennale (BEJN) presents an exhibition that connects Malta and Korea through diverse artistic expressions. The show brings together poetry, sacred cords, feast traditions, and spatial data, creating a dialogue between the two cultures.
The selected artists break with the baroque tradition that has always dominated Maltese art, referencing everything from Caravaggio to contemporary Korean culture. This is Malta's first participation in the Venice Biennale.
The exhibition explores the historical and cultural connections between the two countries, using different artistic mediums to create an immersive experience that transcends geographical and temporal boundaries.
The pavilion seeks to present a renewed vision of Maltese identity, demonstrating how contemporary art can establish bridges between different traditions and cultural contexts.
