Last Friday 31st October the President of the Biennale of Venice, Paolo Baratta, accompanied by the Director 
of the 53rd International Art Exhibition, Daniel Birnbaum, met, in Venice, at Palazzo Querini Dubois, the people representing the Countries joining the 53rd International Contemporary Art Exhibition, which will take place from 7th June to 22nd November 2009 at the Giardini dell’Arsenale (4th, 5th and 6th June) as well as in other places in Venice. Besides Paolo Baratta stated that the Biennale has approved the project establishing that the paper contents of the Historical Archives of Contemporary Arts (ASAC), such as the historical papers, documents, books, catalogues and periodicals, will be moved to the Ala Pastor of the Pavilion Italy at the Giardini. Thus just starting from the 53rd Art Exhibition of 2009 the Pavilion Italy will be partially reorganized and beside the historical archives a didactic area will be set up in the Ala Pastor, as well
For those who incurably love Venice and thus come back here very often, or the occasional visitors who justly get frightened because of the cost of transports and intelligently want to make use of public services and civic museums, since not a long time have had the opportunity to buy the Venice Card.
Venice Card is one of the proposals permitting the transformation of the medium tourist into a privileged visitor: it guarantees an immediate quantifiable saving and an advantage as far as time and opportunities are concerned. You can find it in the versions Transport which guarantees the unlimited use of public means of transport (navigation and by car including the one from and to the airport) and the ‘Transport and Culture’ one which guarantees also the admission to the main museums and churches of Venice, as well as discounts and reductions on the tickets for the main temporary exhibitions, the visits to the Teatro La Fenice, the Biennale and the Car Park. Its cost is variable: from 54 to 137 Euros, but, anyway, it guarantees a 25% saving than doing the same things without the Venice Card. You can buy it directly on line, before leaving, on www.hellovenezia.com or at all the Hellovenezia retail outlets and APT offices.
