Founded by Paolo De Grandis, PDG Arte Communications has been active in the sector of culture and art since 1984 to promote the realisation of the structural conditions that can stimulate the development of the production and creation of cultural events and to encourage the cooperation between the main international organisations in the art and culture sector. Through its experience, it has developed consolidated relationships established with major government institutions, museums, foundations, galleries, thus facilitating contacts at an international level.
Since 1995 PDG Arte Communications coordinated 132 Exhibitions in the Venice Biennale: 59 national participations and 73 collateral events. It comes from an idea of Paolo De Grandis the institution of the outdoor pavilions with the first participation of Taiwan. Since then PDG Arte Communications presented the debut of the following countries: Andorra, Côte d’Ivoire, Gabon, Jamaica, Morocco, Principality of Monaco, Estonia, Latvia, Ukraine, Singapore, Ecuador and the collateral participations of Taiwan, Hong Kong , Macao and US Virgin Islands.
Directed by Carlotta Scarpa, PDG Arte Communications is specialised in organising art exhibitions and cultural events focusing on the debut of new countries in the Venice Biennale. The skills acquired over the years are channelled into the effort of giving the proper organisational assistance. The target is to guarantee a correct organisational process for coordinating the setup, the promotion and the communication.
Launched in March 2016, From La Biennale di Venezia & OPEN to Rome. International Perspectives is a new long term exhibition project conceived and curated by Paolo De Grandis, Claudio Crescentini, Carlotta Scarpa, devoted to the presentation of some international installations from La Biennale di Venezia at the Rome Museums spaces, as site-specifically reconstructed and remodelled. Promoted by Roma Capitale - Superintendent Capitoline of Cultural Heritage and organized in cooperation with PDG Arte Communications, the project sees converging together the art "prospects" of two cities working to help the experience of international art travel throughout the country. From Venice to the Capital precisely, two cities that are linked by historical and immense artistic traditions, which have been able to further enrich this heritage so as to give voice and life to contemporary art, to discover and emphasize this resource by documenting existing assets and promoting both initiatives and international connections.
Having instituted the outdoor pavilions in Venice in 1995 and having converted over 30 locations in art venues, we are the leading company to offer consulting and art services for temporary, permanent and site-specific exhibition projects.
With over 30 years’ experience working in contact with artists, institutions, museums, foundations and galleries we act as a link for a successful exhibition in Venice.
