Italy's Most Important Art Fair: The Venice Biennale (Part 1/3)

[@seasnail404]

best part of this video: "and Thomas painted it yellow" :)

[@margery0007]

"I made a draft of the world three times, and Thomas painted it yellow." - Well done, Thomas.

[@NMWMN]

Art is for anyone and everyone that looks at it, hears it, feels it, makes it, talks about it, buys it or thinks about it. And that is exactly what it's for.

[@KidsWithGuns1992]

Art is important. It allows us to perceive things in a different way, from another persons perspective. It helps people better understand one another as well as appreciate aesthetic beauties of life. Without art life would be boring, grey - dull.

[@Vezzalino]

Sono veramente onorato che venga rappresentata la Biennale su questo fantastico canale! Eng:I'm proud that the Biennale has shown on this amazing channel :D

[@bigorna_art]

It very important that you change you title: a Biennial is very different than a fair. Biennials are big exhibitions and fairs gather galleries together to sell art.

[@BlockedOfficial]

No one gets art deal with it but whether you see it or not we all love art so

[@xiamyou]

i went their the over week with my college, i spent more time sunbathing then look at the art since it 35c

[@Ievolovel]

Art is beautiful to the mind who accepts it as art. Even if it isn't beautiful by mainstream status.. it is beautiful because it is the manifestation of the artists thought and discourse.

[@gawcarolina345]

VICE you made a huge error in your title. The Venice Biennale its not only "Italy's most important Art Fair". It's the world's most important art fair, the most prestigious and influential Biennales of all.. anyone who knows a thing or two about art knows that

[@Xzeno98]

if it is the world's most important it has to be the most important in italy, it is not an error it is just an omission or a resize of the meaning of the title. There's nothing wrong with it, this title has probably been chosen to specify in a more immediate way where the documentary takes place

[@cragnog]

No true scotsman

[@Fakse90]

"everyone turns funny" literally, he says "their brain farts"

[@MaltaSauce]

I would like to understand, please teach me: 1. What is art and what should I understand about it? 2. How does a map (drawing) of the world painted yellow achieve whatever you explained in question 1.

[@MALAK901234]

Besides street art, thats why i love it so much. Most street artists dont want the acknowledgement.

[@VittorioSergi]

don't know how it feel, but having seen this, I can understand you in a way

[@ADDerall509]

Umm do I just have to make art to be a artist, yes it just depends on who looks at it and if they like it and what they think of it. THIS IS A EXAMPLE.

[@TheColourAwesomer]

Yes, you do.

[@8KresniK8]

There is only one word to describe art, formality.

[@TheColourAwesomer]

Yeah, it does need to be understood. That goes without saying.

[@joshdavid247]

what's the song at the very beginning???

[@rr7firefly]

Tourists in large crowds arriving in monstrous cruise ships = as deadly as a swarm of locusts in the millions. // The whole notion of a trendy art event can seem irrelevant at times, particularly at this point in history. Fun yes, but for whom? We ultimately wish it well, with the hope that it remains true to the initial impulse of the Biennale, a celebration of creative innovation.

[@giovannimoriggi5833]

It is. And no more cruise ships inside Venice.

[@xnagato666x]

its unfortunate that modern art now is about the high status one has and not the art itself.

[@xwhite2020]

If you look for the opposite of what you describe and dislike I,m sure you will find. Chances are your only looking for what you dislike.

[@jagethemage86]

spoiler: true art is one of the only truely self-fulfilling act of personal expression left in our cultures. the moment it's diluted with any other intent which isnt complete selfishness, ei money/fame/commercialism/etc, it becomes something else. not art youd be surprised how many people still see this

[@artnature]

Great !

[@themrjones]

Wake me up when its over

[@nmdproducers]

Of course, thr is beauty in everything, just that when something gained attention, it is easier to find the beauty in it. Art has lost something, yes, rich artists give less patience into their work, and the main thing the world has lost right now IS patience, u know with internet & planes things go faster.. Therefore, the audience, that is looking for a balance btwn resemblance with themslvs and spectularity, would dfntivly choose art in which the use of patience is subminimal during creation.

[@tubeberk08]

yes

[@TheColourAwesomer]

Which art in particular? Why are you choosing to fixate on this? I don't think you know what you're talking about.

[@nmdproducers]

Obviously artists are supposed to show what the public wants, and these people would never be too openminded. So yeah, Italy's Most Important Formality Fair...

[@MattLohkamp]

I think the word you're looking for is 'hodgepodge,' not 'hotchpotch.'

[@louiseevans5752]

What does "catafratta" mean ??? thanks.

[@deaconblooze1]

Yeah that pretty much sums up the whole of the "modern art" world

[@aw4991]

Dear god hipsters rejoice, your paradise has been found

[@jimmojokind]

the girl is talking dutch not italian

[@nmdproducers]

Ur right, my comment does show a lot of negativity. I'm sure the society lately has dvlped an acceptance for a wider field of mind, which is shown especially in art. Yes pple might be more openminded today than befor. But to cope with that, other pple have to create an illusion of their acceptances. Therefore comes hypocrisy.

[@OpaPop]

All i read here is kids hating on art. Its the same if adults hate on videogames.

[@l33tmagicmonsta]

anybody knows the song that starts on 12:33?

[@frax119]

Quanti italiani ci sono??? Spolliciate gente! :D

[@matthorndrums]

I dont get art. It looks cool though.

[@davidchristiaan684]

Nice👌🏻

[@SergenteHartman2356]

The Venice Catafrattaggio Biennale

[@lwj4930]

fluide

[@JIURJI840]

This is all catafratta

[@johngoddard915]

and what do you do? dream about being jimmy Hendrix?

[@razr190]

Well for one, this is JUST Venice. Why don't you go check out southern Italy. Still beautiful of course, but poor as hell.

[@mistermethmouth]

Really? does art need to be 'understood'? By some elite I assume? This is the internet KZbin to be exact. People can say whatever they think about it on here.

[@MadMaxJuggernaut]

Pause the video

[@zinoii]

Why? art IS important. To live a life without beauty is meaningless.

[@MSKMyv]

Per sfortuna, però, quà nei commenti è pieno d' ignoranti che non apprezzano Venezia e l' arte italiana :'D

[@insomb]

not really a jeremy deller fan

[@Madulamblongata]

Dadaism

[@davidarenas9758]

Jaja esta chido

[@cybernetickano186]

[@Daipirate]

hum

[@terminator6267]

It's a sad thing...

[@hotchristmas9852]

nope, that's Roma and Constantinople, not Venezia...

[@idkh20]

too much talking, not enough art

[@couar351]

lol I majored in art in college and I got the same reaction. If you tell me you admire the so called ''crucifix in a bottle filled with urine'' i'd laugh at as well : []

[@DarkAngelEU]

Piss Christ is a beautiful photograph tho and imho a very relatable statement coming from a Catholic pov

[@xbox360royalbenefits]

[@RapingRapier]

[@jpizzle470]

"understand art"... pssshh

[@mistermethmouth]

"such arrogance"

[@PegahSye]

boring...sorry vice

[@GODTAPP]

Thast so BORING

[@Pleiodes]

modern art sucks, rembrandt rules :D

[@umbersmidh4201]

you think its by pure chance that car designers with all their unique identities arrived at where they are by chance? foolish women. there is very, very little redeeming about modern art. I want to recommend my favorite artists Gabriel Orozco, Margarita Dittborn, Gabino amaya cacho, Al borde and Julio Bittencourt

[@TrevDA9]

Key word: looks. Do you like tourist traps? Shitty food? Tons of tourists and the constant smell of raw sewage from the canals? Take it from me; it sucks.

[@Ebvardh]

I like commercial, fully formulaic art. It does what art is supposed to do, which is to excite the people who experience that art. It does get boring quickly as more and more people jump on the band-wagon though.

[@xsamxleighx]

How can you not find this interesting? I went to the 54th biennale and I would definitely go again if I had a chance, it was amazing.

[@nmdproducers]

Look at the top comment would you rather give that one a vote up or one of the random comments below? It is human nature to give attention to the distinctive/prosperous kind, believe me, you might have already heard this but you don't know how recurrant it is. I find that quite fortunate that Modern art has reached such a high status, robbing the hypocrisy of the people, talking away on and on about the beauty of the mona lisa, it will make people realize about that.

[@xnagato666x]

I gave a vote up on this post because i like what he said. Are you not doing what you are saying commenting on a comment because it has other comments on it. As for what you say about art at what cost though? We have ruined what art should be and instead its nothing but a means to make money.

[@TheColourAwesomer]

Wow dude. What an incredibly vague thing to say. Past years all around the globe? I bet you think music has gotten worse too. Art hasn't "gotten worse", you haven't noticed it. Unless you're saying something else.

[@hmy6956]

the actual art shown and the artists are alright with me, but why do the curators and exhibit managers just give off obnoxious amounts of smug?

[@1OOOOpeople]

What a waste of lives and resources. I couldn't even get half way through this. Please excuse me if I am being ignorant.

[@TheStupidestGenius]

Quite disrespectful to be honest, I understood everything she said fine. Whoever says they can't understand her are idiots.

[@PENDANTturnips]

Canadian, if i wanted to read i would go find a book or news article, movies are for watching, not reading.

[@Phill0046]

i understand this as much as I understand a bunch of paint splattered on a canvas. oh modern art... wtf

[@SuperDarthKelly]

I really need to stop reading youtube comments. My faith in humanity is weak enough as it is.

[@TheColourAwesomer]

No? Why would that be art. hurrrr durr because art can be anything!! arnt i smarttt!!!

[@xnagato666x]

I liked this video. Modern art is ok but i prefer pop art it has more interesting art.

[@Foc4ccin4]

Those people never saw the Biennale, to laugh at you for willing to become an artist.

[@sinan1337]

"art" people are so lame... and someone calling himself a artist is even more lame...

[@johngoddard915]

this is why people laugh at me when i say im an artist because of people like this

[@sinan1337]

hes my idol... what does that have to with anything? I dont call myself a artist

[@johngoddard915]

yeah exactly you dont have a dream? just to be someone else? and to troll?

[@AlexTSilver]

he didn't say you couldn't. you are arguing with a strawman in your head

[@GrandmasterFerg]

The Renaissance Masters would be heavily drinking to forget this shit

[@iPro90]

I have finished watching the video, I am yet to find fap material.

[@jacekpokrak9258]

Why people love Compmaturism ( Cutting-Edge Contemporary Art) ?
