23 September - 1 November 2009 I Canadian Pavilion

The 2007 Biennale featured the Italian Pavilion by special invitation. In 2009 it will be the turn of the Canadians, who will honour our event with a plenitude of indigenous cultures represented in their display of Canadian artifacts by some two hundred artists and craftspeople. The items have been selected by the Canadian Crafts Federation, and the show curated by Dr. Sandra Alfoldy, editor of ‘Neo-Craft: Modernity and the Crafts.’ ‘Unity & Diversity’ is a vital contribution to the contemporary theme of representing cultures, and the fruits of interchange between art, nature and humanity.
