TL;DR Summary

Adriano Pedrosa, the curator of the 60th edition of the Venice Biennale, presents "Foreigners Everywhere," a provocative exhibition celebrating the foreigner and historic waves of migration across the planet. The show features 331 artists, most from the Global South, with a focus on contemporary and 20th-century art, including many unfamiliar names. Critics note that this Biennale showcases more dead artists than living ones, making it a somber tipping point for the event.
