The name, EBИNNALE, is both a cry and a protest sprung from the letter E. On this one absurd night, under the bedsheets of Venice, a fracture in time will unleash the Alter Ego. Speak it’s name and speculate on your own corruption, for this night will provide the opportunity to go beyond one’s imagination.

The idea behind creating EBИNNALE originated from numerous conversations with young creatives living in different cities — London, Kiev, Moscow, Tokyo, Venice — about the aesthetic forms of artistic expression. The intention of the curators Zarina Kostelman and Ekaterina Tereshkina is that of simple yet sophisticated modern attraction. The festival program includes thirteen events that will thrust the guest into an immersive atmosphere providing opportunities to communicate in an environment stripped of formality. EBИNNALE has the high goal of showcasing and questioning contemporary art, whilst uniting people, generations and countries.

The interior of the Chiesetta della Misericordia built the 10th century was originally constructed as a Church, but since the 20th century has been used for private events, including the “praise of art as a religion”. EBИNNALE will combine the building’s solidity with fragility, contrasting the church’s marble columns and warm light with weightless curtains, transparent linen and a blanket of fog— the aesthetics of EBИNNALE will become a platform for unity and the struggle of opposites.
