Alyazia Al Qubaisi, one of our 18 selected interns to work and live in Venice during the Venice biennale, documents arriving to Venice to start her internship on the 30th July 2013.
The Venice Internship program is a unique opportunity for an elite group of developing arts practitioners to participate in the 55th International Art Exhibition – la Biennale di Venezia, 2013. After engaging in a rigorous screening process, successful applicants will receive comprehensive training before being deployed to manage the national exhibition in Venice. Full access to the Biennale, museum tours and admission to some of the world’s finest artistic institutions are just some of the things that await UAE Pavilion interns in Venice.
The National Pavilion of the UAE runs this specialized opportunity to train UAE nationals to take part in the Venice Biennale with the aim of the program being to create a legacy of highly skilled art practitioners in the UAE equipped to take the national contemporary art and cultural scene boldly into the future.
