Paradise Lost – The First Roma Pavilion: A Retrospective Look
The Open Society Institute, the Allianz Kulturstiftung and the European Cultural Foundation announced the opening of the first Roma Pavilion at the 52nd Venice Biennale in June 2007. The Roma Pavilion presented a selection of Roma (otherwise known as Gypsy) contemporary artists from eight European countries.
The Pavilion constituted the first significant step toward giving Roma Contemporary Culture the audience it deserves.
