“The main purpose of the European Council of Art is to support the public idea of Culture, to protect and promote a constant dialogue with Art through the work of Artists, to maintain fertile relations with the different fields of knowledge, inside and outside national borders”.
Art enriches daily life and helps us understand personal and global transformations, making it natural to adopt a European perspective that goes beyond national borders. The European Council of Art, a non-profit association active in Italy and Europe, promotes artistic and cultural sensitivity, enhancing the territory, the historical-architectural heritage and local traditions, thus promoting cultural growth and the diffusion of knowledge in the artistic and artisanal fields.
The location of the headquarters of the European Council of Art in the Giardini della Biennale di Venezia and the common mission of promoting and disseminating art that characterizes both Venetian institutions make Caffè Paradiso an exclusive and prestigious space, which annually hosts artistic projects by National Pavilions and Collateral Events with international artists on the occasion of the International Art and Architecture Exhibitions of the Venice Biennale.
