Podcast
La Biennale on Air
is the brand-new official Podcast of La Biennale di Venezia – your backstage pass to a cultural institution with over 130 years of history. In under 30 minutes, each episode takes you behind the scenes of La Biennale’s seven Artistic Departments – Art, Architecture, Cinema, Dance, Music, Theatre, and the Historical Archive – through conversations with artists, curators, thinkers, performers, and cultural trailblazers. Blending rare archival treasures with highlights from today’s Festivals and Exhibitions, the Podcast uncovers hidden stories, new ideas, and different perspectives. Rooted in Venice but open to the world,
La Biennale on Air
offers a monthly journey into untold stories, ongoing projects, and the voices shaping culture – across time, disciplines, and borders.
Episode 7
March 2026
This episode of
La Biennale on Air
is devoted to visionary women and their transformative voices.
Spanning the different Departments of La Biennale di Venezia, our guests include the iconic musician and artist Laurie Anderson; Silver Lions for Dance and Music, Mamela Nyamza and Sarah Davachi; the acclaimed Emma Dante, Golden Lion for Lifetime Achievement at the Biennale Teatro 2026; and two Hollywood standouts, Mona Fastvold and Amanda Seyfried.
Their exceptional contributions to today’s culture are explored through precious archival moments connected to the upcoming 61st International Art Exhibition,
In Minor Keys
, alongside exclusive interviews and a preview of the new issue of the Biennale Magazine.
Episode 6
February 2026
La Biennale on Air
returns in February with an episode of images, masks and love stories.
We open in the Historical Archive with a tribute to Man Ray, before stepping into the magic of the Biennale Carnevale 2026, where art meets sport in dialogue with the Milano Cortina 2026 Winter Olympics.
From the poetic reflections of Carolyn Carlson on her article published in the very first issue of the Biennale Magazine to three unforgettable romances from the Venice International Film Festival – including
Lost in Translation
– this month’s chapter weaves together legacy and new perspectives, performance and passion, celebrating the many ways creativity transforms how we see, play and love. With insights from, among others, Olympian artists Slaven Dizdarević, Simone Barlaam and Zeina Rashid, and film icons such as Ang Lee and Tony Leung Chiu-wai.
Episode 5
January 2026
La Biennale on Air
opens 2026 with a journey through memory and the present, centred on Marina Abramović and her enduring relationship with La Biennale di Venezia, explored through archival materials and voices from Christine Macel and Cecilia Alemani.
The episode moves across disciplines, from Architecture with Carlo Ratti and the Olympic Torch for Milano Cortina 2026, to Theatre with Davide Iodice’s
Pinocchio. What Is a Person?
, before turning to the Biennale Magazine, a playful horoscope of the year ahead, and Cinema with
Classici fuori Mostra
, bringing timeless masterpieces of film history back to the big screen.
Episode 4
December 2025
In the festive atmosphere of the final episode of the year,
La Biennale on Air
closes 2025 with a special edition filled with ideas, voices and inspirations from across La Biennale di Venezia. At its heart is the return of Luciano Berio’s
Coro
at the Teatro La Fenice (6 > 7 December 2025), with choreography by Wayne McGregor, who guides us through this poignant Historical Archive’s Special Project – its music resonating throughout the episode.
Looking ahead, we hear reflections from Wang Shu and Lu Wenyu, newly appointed Curators of the Biennale Architettura 2027, before heading to the cinema for
Father Mother Sister Brother
by
Jim Jarmusch, winner of the Golden Lion at the 82nd Venice International Film Festival. The programme is completed by an exclusive conversation from Biennale Magazine between Giulia D’Agnolo Vallan and Julian Schnabel, alongside a selection of seasonal reading recommendations from the Artistic Directors.
Episode 3
November 2025
In the third episode of
La Biennale on Air
, we explore a range of projects that capture the breadth of La Biennale di Venezia’s artistic and intellectual landscape. From a musical tribute to Franco Battiato and a dialogue with the humanoid robot Alter3 on the themes of the Biennale Architettura 2025, to early insights into the 61st International Art Exhibition (9 May > 22 November 2026) and a powerful homage to Pier Paolo Pasolini on the 50th anniversary of his death, the episode brings together voices, archives and experiments. It also includes the latest news, with the theatrical release of
The Smashing Machine
. Contributions come from Malika Ayane, Carlo Ratti, Luc Steels, Willem Dafoe, and Dwayne Johnson – among others.
The music in this episode is drawn from the Historical Archive’s Special Project
Arcipelago Battiato
(17 > 18 November 2025, Teatro alle Tese, Arsenale).
Episode 2
October 2025
In the second episode of
La Biennale on Air
, sound becomes our compass. From the Biennale Musica 2025, Artistic Director Caterina Barbieri reflects on music, Venice, and her
Star Within
, while Meredith Monk, Golden Lion for Lifetime Achievement, shares an intimate conversation on the boundless possibilities of the human voice. Other artists from the Festival – Carl Craig, Actress, and Fennesz – chart new constellations of electronic sound. Meanwhile in Istanbul, curator Luigia Lonardelli and artist Cevdet Erek discuss the travelling project
Amfibio
, part of the Historical Archive’s Special Project
The Wind Makes the Sky
La Biennale di Venezia in the Footsteps of Marco Polo.
The episode closes with cinematic echoes: Orson Welles remembered by Peter Cowie, and a tribute to Robert Redford.
Music interludes between sections feature excerpts from works by the Biennale College Musica 2025 artists: res_, Morgana, Francesca Fabrizi, Luka Aron, and Jasmine Morris.
