FB LAB: Florence Biennale's new multifunctional space is born in Florence

In anticipation of the 11th Florence Biennale - International Exhibition of Contemporary Art, whose 20th anniversary edition will be held from 6 to 15 October at the Fortezza da Basso in Florence, the Florence Biennale LAB, a new multifunctional and multifaceted space, suitable for high-profile public and private events, has been created in Florence (at Via delle Porte Nuove 10, in the Porta al Prato area).

The presentation of Florence Biennale LAB is scheduled for Saturday, 11 March, at 5 p.m. with free admission, together with an exhibition of a selection of works from the gallery; afterwards, the Florence Biennale LAB managers will be pleased to toast the success of the initiative with the participants, in the presence of a live performance by Edoardo Teani (double bass) and Giacomo Tongiani (marimba).

For the occasion, it will be possible to admire a selection of works by various artists in the gallery: the Brazilians Elizabeth Almendra and Carlos Araujo, the Japanese Yasumichi Nakagawa, the Dutch Wessel Huismann; and the Italians Franca Pisani, Giampaolo Talani, Vincenzo Calli, Sauro Cavallini, Pasquale Celona, Nilo Australi and Diego Gabriele.

The refurbished space develops into a series of rooms that are ideally suited to every need and occasion: from book presentations to lectures, from professional workshops to educational and training meetings, from art exhibitions to aperitifs and dinners at social events.

FB LAB is located in an area excellently served by public transport such as the tramway, trains (it is only 10 minutes from the Santa Maria Novella Central Station) and buses (the reference stop is ‘Pierluigi da Palestrina - Florence Biennale, Contemporary Art), close to the centre of Florence, but outside the restricted traffic zone so that it can also be easily reached by car.

In particular, the new Florence Biennale LAB consists of three different areas and a series of accessory services available to those who request them:

indoor hall: accommodates about 50 people, equipped with a sound system with wireless microphones and a video projector;
annexe: accommodates approximately 40 people, equipped with a sound system with wireless microphones and a video projector;
outdoor area: private garden ideal for cocktails and outdoor aperitifs;
ancillary services: press office and web communication; photographic and video services; graphics, printing and catalogue publication; artwork mobilisation service; hotel reception; catering service for coffee breaks, light lunches, cocktail parties.

More information and a wide selection of images of the new spaces and exhibited works can be found on the web page https://www.florencebiennale.org/florencebiennalelab/
