Maarten Baas. Second Act

The Fondaco dei Tedeschi presents "Second Act" from May 20 to November 21, a site-specific installation by Maarten Baas that permeates the entire premises of the Fondaco, from the fourth floor to the courtyard up to the watergate. The Dutch artist has chosen to stage four long curtains, suspended in the internal courtyard of the Fondaco dei Tedeschi, which conceal a representation whose plot is unknown.

Free entry from 10 am to 6.30 pm
