Venice Mideast unrest forces out Lebanon and Bahrain pavilions, Egypt in question |
Bahrain was to make its first appearance in Venice this year. But it has canceled plans to be at the biennale. Following numerous uprisings in the region, an ensuing government crackdown in the island nation off the coast of Saudi Arabia has forced organizers to withdraw. Art Info is reporting this is particularly unfortunate given their well-received debut at the Venice Architecture Biennale, which included the Golden Lion award for best pavilion.
