Highlights at the Venice Biennale
Ghana: Ghana Freedom
This is the first outing at Venice for Ghana, and the country's pavilion (展馆)contains a huge amount of artistic firepower the architect David Adjaye has made a section of it with temporary walls of packed African soil; the philosopher Kwame has written the lead catalog essay; and it features not one but six artists, including the filmmaker Akomfrah and the sculptor El Anatsui.
The pavilion succeeds best by mapping the rich history shared by Ghana's citizens. You can see it in the portraits from the 1960s by Felicia, regarded as the first woman in Ghana to work as a professional photographer.
Roman Opalka: Telling Time
In 1965, this Polish artist began his "Details", one of the most emotional projects of postwar art by painting the number 1 in the comer of a blank canvas. He took a breath, painted a 2, took another, painted 3 — and died, 46 years later, after painting the number 5, 607, 249.
Small preparatory exercises for the number paintings, never before seen, appear inside a room of antique musical instruments, beautifully presented by the inventive director Chiara Bertoia. The pair have never been seen together, and when viewed face-to-face, you feel you have stepped into the space of a life.
Jannis Kounellis
After his early paintings copying the letters of Roman street advertising, Mr. Kounellis began to put natural materials in relief with cultural or historical relics. After several years of deep-thinking group exhibitions, the Fondazione hosts a show of this Greek-born Italian artist, who died two years ago and whose poetic combination of coal, stones, soil and used clothes made him a key figure.
