๐Ÿ“Œ๐Ÿง‘โ€๐ŸŽจ๐ŸŽถ You probably won't believe, but one of the most interesting and surprising Pavillions of the #ArtBiennale here in Venice, is always that of the Holy See... yes the Vatican ๐Ÿ˜‡

2 years ago it was hosted by the local ๐Ÿ‘‰ women prison, this year it will be inside the Mystic Garden of "Carmelitani Scalzi" Monks, close to Venice Train Station ๐Ÿ“ธโ˜๏ธ

The Pavillion is entitled The Ear is the Eye of the Soul and among the artists involved there are none less that #BrianEno, #JimJarmush and #PattiSmith โค๏ธโ€๐Ÿ”ฅ
