L'OFFICIEL ART HAS ASKED 17 PERSONALITIES – ARTISTS, CURATORS, COLLECTORS AND ART LOVERS – TO GIVE THEIR OWN VISION OF VENICE, THROUGH THEIR HEART AND SENSES, FROM THEIR VERY FIRST TIME IN THE CITY OF THE DOGES TO THEIR FAVOURITE PLACES AND BEST MEMORIES, NOT FORGETTING THEIR EXPECTATIONS ABOUT THE 2015 ART BIENNALE. SEVENTEEN VOICES THAT RESOUND WITH LORD BYRON'S WORDS: “OF THE HAPPIEST MOMENTS WHICH WERE WROUGHT WITHIN THE WEB OF MY EXISTENCE, SOME FROM THEE, FAIR VENICE! HAVE THEIR COLOURS CAUGHT” (FROM CHILDE HAROLD'S PILGRIMAGE, 1812-1818).
