Located in the heart of Venice near Campo San Polo, in a beautiful fourteenth century courtyard, Beatrice Burati Anderson Art Space & Gallery opened on May, the 10th 2017 by the will of Beatrice Burati Anderson, art historian and curator, with the collective exhibition “Et in Terra” and the performance “Earth Exchange” by Gianfranco Baruchello. The 200 sqms space, definitely not a white cube, is situated in an ancient warehouse with two water gates on the Rio de la Madoneta, just 30 metres far from the Grand Canal: a place which maintains intact all the charme and the traces of the past. Despite standing on one of the most frequented touristic paths in the city, the one that leads from Piazzale Roma to Rialto, the Gallery represents an unexpected, enchanting and hidden oasis of peace and silence. It is a research space that works with Italian and international artists of different generations and cultures, enhancing the performative and installative dimension. While maintaining a close relationship with the territory, the Gallery strongly promotes  the development of ethical issues and the connection between arts and science.
