VENICE, ITALY - MAY 5: (EDITORIAL USE ONLY) Visitors explore the Nordic Countries Pavilion at Giardini at the 61st International Art Exhibition - La Biennale di Venezia during the press preview on May 5, 2026 in Venice, Italy. Curated by Anna Mustonen (Museum of Contemporary Art Kiasma, Helsinki), the exhibition presents sculpture, installation, and performance by Klara Kristalova, Benjamin Orlow, and Tori Wrånes. The exhibition weaves Nordic mythologies with global contexts of identity, cultural survival, and gender equality, set within Sverre Fehn's landmark 1962 pavilion representing Finland, Norway, and Sweden. La Biennale di Venezia, titled In Minor Keys and conceived by the late curator Koyo Kouoh, runs from May 9 to November 22, 2026, at the Giardini, the Arsenale, and venues throughout Venice.
