The prestigious Chianciano Biennale announces the confirmation of their 2022 exhibition in Tuscany, Italy. The summer exhibition is a refined coalescence of contemporary art by the Chianciano Art Museum and is now open to artists submissions.
Thousands of international visitors gravitate to the town of Chianciano each summer of the Biennale to elope with its dynamic art. Located in the winding streets of the Old Town that the hills of Tuscany demand, the Chianciano Biennale is nothing short of atmospheric. This playful contrast between the Old Town and the cutting contemporary art is an ode to the ever expansive depth of culture throughout time.
Curated by the Chianciano Art Museum and working with the team of the London Art Biennale, participation in the Chianciano Biennale is an esteemed event for artists. Since their birthdate of 2009, the Chianciano Biennale has had a universal appeal and is recognised for their cultural connections by critics, artists and collectors alike. The London Biennale, which takes place at the historical Chelsea Old Town Hall each year and, like the Chianciano Biennale, makes a special consideration for charity and awards such as cash prizes and critiques by the International Confederation of Art Critics.
The Clancianum Galleries and the Art Museum will display seven other exhibitions under the unbrella of the Biennale. The culture continues past contemporary art in the other galleries, exhibitions including artists such as Giorgio Armani at the Chelsea Gallery and Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec at the Savoy Gallery.
Chianciano and its surrounding areas are saturated in the richness of European history. The town of Chianciano Terme dates back millennia to the Etruscans and Romans and nestled amongst some of Italy’s most important locations for culture and nature. From Chiancinano visitors can see the Cetona and Amiata mountain peaks amongst the hills of century old beech trees. Cities of global importance are just an adventure away including Montepulciano, Siena, Florence and Rome.
The Chianciano Biennale has spaced the walls of their thirteen galleries (the Clancianum Galleries) and the Art Museum for one hundred talented artists. The plethora of submissions are diligently analysed and weaved through by their museum professionals. The Chianciano Biennale takes place from the 6th August until the 28th August 2022 and is free entry for all.
