The Emily Harvey Foundation has been operating in Venice since 2004, and presents this exhibition in memory of its founder, on the tenth anniversary of her death. Venetian masks were of particular interest to Emily Harvey, and the curator of the exhibition, Berty Skuber, has developed a show on this theme, inviting the friends and past guests of the Emily Harvey Foundation to create a mask or mask-related work for this special occasion. As well, the show presents a selection of photos and documents concerning the life of Emily Harvey and the presence of her gallery in Venice. The exhibition includes masks, video and texts by over 130 artists and writers from all around the world.

The opening on Saturday, October 18, 7:00 p.m., will also include a performance of Understanding by Philip Corner and Phoebe Neville, followed by Ira Schneider’s Unmasked Hors d’oeuvres.

Opening hours: Wednesday, October 22 to Saturday, October 25, 6:00-8:00 pm, and afterwards by appointment.
