Per non perdere il filo

Palazzo Vendramin Grimani reopens its doors with an exhibition Collateral Event of the 60th International Art Exhibition - La Biennale di Venezia entitled To not lose the thread. Karine N'guyen Van Tham – Parul Thacker, conceived and produced by the Golden Tree Foundation, edited by Daniela Ferretti.

The French-Vietnamese artist Karine N'guyen Van Tham (Marseille, 1988) and the Indian Parul Thacker (Mumbai, 1973) were invited to interact with the spaces of the historic residence on the Grand Canal of San Polo. Both will spend a period in Venice starting from the end of February and will collaborate on the installation of the exhibition, also with site-specific works conceived for the spaces of the Palazzo di San Polo.

Different in origin, training, sensitivity and expressive methods, Karine N'guyen Van Tham and Parul Thacker will build their dialogue around the theme of thread, understood as an expressive means, source of inspiration and metaphor that alludes to writing and which physically develops in weaving, weaving and the art of embroidery.

The spaces of the ancient Venetian residence will therefore welcome the delicately poetic, intimate and frugal works of Karine N'guyen Van Tham and the multi-material, expressive and spiritual works of Parul Thacker.
