Arte Laguna Prize – International Contemporary Art Exhibition in Venice
November 6 @ 5:00 pm - November 29 @ 6:00 pm
The Arte Laguna Prize – International Contemporary Art Exhibition in Venice opens at Arsenale Nord on 6 November 2026 and runs through 29 November. The exhibition brings together 240 works from artists around the world, spanning ten disciplines: painting, sculpture and installation, photography, video art, performance, digital art, virtual art, design, land art and urban art.
The opening and award ceremony take place on 6 November at 5:00 PM, following an official press conference at 12:00 PM. Regular exhibition hours are 10:00 AM–6:00 PM, with the main public exhibition continuing from 7–29 November across Tese 89, 90 and 91 at Arsenale Nord. The programme positions contemporary art alongside design, landscape and urban practice within one of Venice’s most distinctive cultural settings.
For visitors arriving by public transport, ACTV lines 4.1 and 5.2 stop at Bacini – Arsenale Nord; the venue is also accessible on foot via the bridge from Campo della Celestia. From Venice Airport, the Alilaguna Blue Line serves Bacini Arsenale Nord.
ArchUp Perspective
The exhibition is particularly relevant to architects, designers and researchers interested in the overlap between contemporary art, installation, land art and urban practice. Its strength lies in the breadth of disciplines and the industrial scale of the Arsenale setting rather than in a conventional commercial fair format.
