There is art pouring out of every available space, some of it still manages to be good. I went to the Giardini for the first time, where all the national pavilions are. It's like a big fun fair for contemporary art. Massive tour groups clamour at the buildings' doors to get a peek and a photo.
There were a few amazing pieces, like Fiona Tan's video installations, Simon Starling's elaborate film display machine, the Nordic and Danish pavilions' menacing houses, Steve McQueen's long slow film, the Australian performance videos and Yoko Ono's text works. Here are some photos from my epic marathon of art viewing.
