As mentioned in the last post, I ran across to the Arsenale site of the Venice Biennale to take as many photos as I could in approximately 30 minutes. This post includes those photos, but I’ve decided not to even try to fake some meaningful commentary. It's just unfair on the people who worked so hard to create the exhibits to have someone come along and pretend he knows anything about their work.
I will just give a quick shout-out to my new friend – and neuroscience classmate – Ehab Mokhtar, who you'll see in photo 56. Ehab kept up with my frantic exploration of the Arsenale, and we both somehow managed to enjoy the experience and then get back into the Giardini in time for the lecture with Thomas Heatherwick. Thanks for your company, Ehab!
