HOW THE ART WORLD IS TACKLING RACIAL INEQUALITY 

Over the years, there has been a significant lack of diversity in the art world. In fact, around 85% of artists represented by U.S institutions are white and many classical paintings have been found to have racist undertones or themes. Racial inequality is a big problem in society as a whole but certainly prevails in the art industry.

Luckily, many in the art world have noticed this inequality and are making movies to improve racial representation in art. While progress is being made, the art world still has a long way to go.

Here, we will take a look at how racial inequality is being tackled in the art world with comments from expert Oliva Kwok Decani.

COLLATERAL EVENTS BIENNALE ARTE 2022 AND BEYOND: WHAT TO SEE AND WHERE TO GO

There are 30 collateral events of the Biennale Arte 2022 admitted by the curator Cecilia Alemani and you can find them all in the post I dedicated to Biennale Venezia 2022, tickets, pavilions, collateral events.
The problem is which ones to see first, where to start and above all whether it is worth visiting them all. Also because during the Venice Biennale there are collateral events to see and a myriad of other interesting independent exhibitions.

To help you choose, I have written this post, which I hope will act as a compass on your journey to discover the collateral events of the 2022 Biennale and the independent events.

What to see at the Ducal Palace in Mantua

WHAT TO SEE AT THE DUCAL PALACE IN MANTUA

When people ask me what to see in the Ducal Palace in Mantua, I always reply with a list of works of art and rooms that, in my opinion, everyone should see at least once in their lifetime.
Don’t think, however, that a list of four or five rooms means that a visit to the palace is within the reach of those who have little time.

Visiting the Doge’s Palace in Mantua takes at least half a day, but if you want to explore the whole palace at your leisure and get to know a good deal of its history, it might take even longer.
In this post I’ve made a list of what you absolutely must see at the Doge’s Palace in Mantua, but once you’re inside, you’ll be blown away by the vastness of the itinerary and the stories the works of art can tell.

THE WORKCURRENCY REVOLUTION: HOW TO UNDERSTAND THE VALUE OF A WORK OF ART

Sometimes you find yourself holding a painting or sculpture that has been hanging in your grandparents’ or distant relative’s house for years.
We look at the work and doubt whether it has value, whether it was created by a famous artist or whether it is significant for understanding a certain historical period.

It can happen that a masterpiece is found by pure chance in a flea market or even that an artist is rediscovered after decades, as happened with the recent discovery of the works of Luigi Pericle in his home.

The doubt that the work in front of us is a small treasure assails us but we don’t know where to start to understand its true value.

Here are some tips for understanding the value of a work of art.
