Việt Nam Pavilion 2026: Art in the Global Flow

Việt Nam will present an independent art project in its own exhibition space for the first time at the 61st Venice Art Biennale, which opens in May and runs through November. About The participation marks the first time Việt Nam has presented an independent project in its own exhibition venue at the Biennale, a step seen as strengthening the presence of Vietnamese contemporary art on the global stage and opening opportunities for deeper dialogue with the international art community. The Venice Art Biennale 2026 is set to take place at the historic palace Ca' Giustinian Faccanon, restored and renovated after more than a year. Located at Calle delle Acque in the San Marco district near the Rialto Bridge, the palace is a typical example of Venetian Gothic architecture. The building was constructed in the second half of the 15th century by the prominent Giustinian family and still preserves notable architectural features, including a rare open loggia balcony on the main floor, or the piano nobile. The palace has two main floors with a total area of about 1,100 sq.m. The main floor preserves large triple-arched Gothic windows, large mirrors and historic Murano glass chandeliers. The character of the rooms makes them suitable for hosting conferences, receptions and meetings. Read more Toggle Installation
