The History of the Venice Biennale
Over a hundred years of the story behind the Biennale of Venice, the oldest and most prestigious artistic and cultural institution in the world, from the first edition in 1895 to the 52nd one in 2007.
Dreams and Conflicts
The 50th Venice Biennale starts again as if it were 1964 as the real artists return and technology takes a back seat. Iran makes its debut, China comes, Mexico returns and political art is overshadowed by reflections on the politics of art.

New Forest Pavilion
MEETING PLACE signifies the place where contemporary art intertwines with the museum collection. The motivation behind the exhibition is to provide a platform for the 'meeting' of two art institutions in Bournemouth; the Arts Institute at Bournemouth, in conjunction with the gallery's text+work programme and the Russell-Cotes Museum and Galleries.
Biennials, Triennials, and Documenta
This innovative new history examines in-depth how the growing popularity of large-scale international survey exhibitions, or 'biennials', has influenced global contemporary art since the 1950s. Provides a comprehensive global history of biennialization from the rise of the European star-curator in the 1970s to the emergence of mega-exhibitions in Asia in the 1990s Introduces a global array of case studies to illustrate the trajectory of biennials and their growing influence on artistic expression, from the Biennale de la Méditerranée in Alexandria, Egypt in 1955, the second Havana Biennial of 1986, New York’s Whitney Biennial in 1993, and the 2002 Documenta11 in Kassel, to the Gwangju Biennale of 2014 Explores the evolving curatorial approaches to biennials, including analysis of the roles of sponsors, philanthropists and biennial directors and their re-shaping of the contemporary art scene Uses the history of biennials as a means of illustrating and inciting further discussions of globalization in contemporary art

The Milk of Dreams
In English for the first time, a wild and darkly funny book that combines Surrealist painter Leonora Carringon's fantastical writing and illustrations for children The maverick surrealist Leonora Carrington was an extraordinary painter and storyteller who loved to make up stories and draw pictures for her children. She lived much of her life in Mexico, and her sons remember sitting in a big room whose walls were covered with images of wondrous creatures, towering mountains, and ferocious vegetation while she told fabulous and funny tales. That room was later whitewashed, but some of its wonders were preserved in the little notebook that Carrington called The Milk of Dreams. John, who has wings for ears, Humbert the Beautiful, an insufferable kid who befriends a crocodile and grows more insufferable yet, and the awesome Janzamajoria are all to be encountered in The Milk of Dreams, a book that is as unlikely, outrageous, and dreamy as dreams themselves.
