This year's theme is: "Making Worlds" and it was interesting to see how each country has responded and launched his message about it. Some artists have a very pessimistic view of the near future, other more constructive and positive then. The beautiful scenery of Venice is always a great frame for any artistic event and, in spite of the global crisis, there were no gaps and no defection national pavilions.

Here below are the top 5 most of the artists that I liked are:

1: Pavel Pepperstein, Russian, inspired by the utopian projects of his ancestors constructivists, Tatlin and Malevich which creates a long saga entitled "Landscape of the Future", which creates these its enormous symbolic buildings, which will be created in a specific and very years away in the future.

2: Giacomo Costa , day and night, vegetation and ruined cities are mixed in the atmosphere inhabited by dark lights, of a humanity just remembered tecnlogica in its decline. The nature, able to revive and sovverchiare things, go back to being the legitimate owner of the land.

3: Spencer Finch , who lives in New York, creates little experiments on subjective perceptions of color and light. In his installation "Big Bang", with light bulbs and lighting equipment recreates the model of the molecular formula of lunar dust measured by the Apollo 17 expedition in 1972.

4: Matthew Basilè in his "Fall of the Gods" brings a humanity ambiguous and disturbing sense of sacredness and mystical devotion renewed: the faces of distant cultures dall'opressione tech will have to realign with the dynamism of modernity, otherwise, the butcher of their extinction.

5: Tomas Saraceno explores the possibilities of accommodation suspended in the air for population growth and rapid climate change in this release, "G alaxies Forming along Filaments, Like Droplets Along the Strands of a Spider's Web" explores the way in which thin filaments of the black widow are able to keep very high suspended weights through the use of a complex geometry. Saraceno compares this web prehistoric structure of our universe.
