The Art Explora Festival is a traveling festival that sails the world's seas and oceans aboard its museum ship, offering innovative and free artistic and cultural experiences. From spring 2024 to autumn 2026, the festival will embark on its first tour, visiting 15 countries in the Mediterranean. To coincide with the 60th International Art Biennale, the museum ship will be anchored in Venice from April 17 to 22, at Riva Sette Martiri, just steps from the Giardiniera. Adorned with its large dock sails designed by Laure Prouvost, the museum ship resonates with "Foreigners Everywhere," the theme of this 60th Biennale, as well as with the universal message that the foundation conveys through its cultural odyssey in the Mediterranean: art transcends borders.

Performance - G.R.O.O.V.E.; excerpts, Bintou Dembélé
G.R.O.O.V.E. is a promenade performance infused with the artistic approach of Bintou Dembélé. Screenings of short films about marginalized, subversive cultures, along with performances, take over the inviting space. Guided by the voice of Célia Kameni, the audience is invited to immerse themselves in the guitar and lap steel of Charles Amblard, and to follow. Together, they transform the space, inviting you to join them and celebrate.

DJ Set - Solar System, Meech from France
Meech De France presents a vibrant DJ set, rooted in house music, hip-hop, Afro-diasporic rhythms and soulful electronic sounds. Blending rare grooves, powerful percussion and dancefloor classics, he crafts a collective journey where music, movement and memory converge. An intense set, designed for listening, dancing and sharing.
