Meet the Writer Who Sees Every Single Show at the Venice Biennale | Artnet News
"For the past four years, the Seoul-based writer, translator, and interpreter has attended Venice's art and architecture biennales and seen every single show—the main affair and the pavilions, plus the collateral exhibitions and the unofficial ones."
"Park also manages to document his journeys in regular dispatches, and on top of that, he has put together an exhaustive and essential guide for the biennial, in both Korean and English, free for all."
"He's a planner, in other words, and he booked his Venice accommodations a year in advance. This time, he thinks it will take him about two weeks to see it all."
Jaeyong Park, a Seoul-based writer and translator, has attended the Venice Biennale for four years, successfully seeing every exhibition. He documents his experiences and has created a comprehensive guide available in Korean and English. Park views the biennale as a crucial research trip, planning meticulously by booking accommodations a year in advance. He also participates in various cultural initiatives in Seoul, including the Seoul Reading Room and Curating School Seoul, and shares insights on attending the biennale with family.
