The 2015 Venice Biennale Central Exhibition 'All the World’s Futures' At The Giardini

Jeremy Deller's jukebox plays nothing but 7-inch records, which emit factory machine noise. 

Curated by Nigerian curator and the director of the Haus der Kunst in Munich Okwui Enwezor, 'All the World's Futures' is the central exhibition held at the Giardini during the 2015 Venice Biennale, which opens to the public tomorrow. Over 140 artists have been asked to be a part of this exhibition - from Oscar Murrilo to Glenn Ligon. The exhibition is a brutal statement exploring violence and pain, global catastrophe and mass anxieties, and the psychic and physical destruction caused by global capitalism. All the World's Future's will be on view from May 9 to November 22, 2015 at the 2015 Venice Biennale.
