The official list of artists for the core exhibition of the 56th Venice Biennale has been released to the public. The exhibition titled,“All the World’s Futures,” has been curated by Okwui Enwezor and looks to be politically charged and socially aware. For over a century, the Venice Biennale has been one of the most prestigious cultural events in the world. Founded in 1895, it has promoted the avant-garde, spotting new artistic trends and organising international events in the contemporary arts in accordance with a multi-disciplinary model, which characterises its unique nature. This year big name artists such as Hans Haacke, Bruce Nauman, Georg Baselitz, Andreas Gursky, Steve McQueen, Jeremy Deller and Chris Ofili will be exhibiting alongside emerging artists such as Mika Rottenberg, Marlene Dumas, Adel Abdessemed and the RAQS MEDIA COLLECTIVE.
