The overall theme and title of the Biennale in Venice is Foreigners Everywhere, which to me feels maybe too provocative. The Italian title Stranieri Ovunque and the literal English translation strangers everywhere seems better. At the central pavilion and in the Arsenale you can view work by artists who were once seen, and are often still seen, as strange. A quote from the Biennale site: "the queer artist, who has moved within different sexualities and genders, often being persecuted or outlawed; the outsider artist, who is located at the margins of the art world, much like the self-taught artist, the folk artist and the artista popular; the indigenous artist, frequently treated as a foreigner in his or her own land." A very powerful and positive way to challenge the status quo regarding to the art canon and the differentiation between high and low art.
