All round nice guy Chris Heathcote apparenty very much enjoyed the Venice Biennale and has some pictures and links to offer us.

My recent visit to the Venice Biennale was my first - and if you have even a passing interest in contemporary art, go. Move earth and mountains to see it. It's the best thing I've seen all year. The setting, the variety, the crazy city and generally the standard of the art all combine to create a truly breathtaking, headspinning experience.
