This past weekend I went to Verona and Venice. Verona was nothing too special. We saw Juliet's "house" and the amphitheater where some classic rock legends have played. In Venice it was freezing! But the fog made for some pretty cool photographs. I really liked it there...It was nice to be in a completely pedestrian Italian city without Vespas or Smartcars trying to run you over! We went to the Biennale, which had some pretty interesting contemporary art. The best was running into Biennale installations all over the city where you don't expect them.
Only a fraction of the fish at the enormous fish market!
An sculpture for the Biennale. The space that it is placed in is actually permanent and was done by an architect named Scarpa. We visited a lot of spaces designed by him in both Venice and Verona.
An installation outside of the USA pavillion at the Biennale. This was all in motion! Of course the Americans have the loudest exhibition at the Biennale...It was pretty funny though.
Another USA installation. The ATM actually works and the organ plays a different sound depending on how much money you take out.
