Capital Pool and the Associated Public Autonomous Fund 2019






“Canal Grande: The Capital Pool and the Associated Public”, the work by Dan 
Mihaltianu displayed in the Romanian Pavilion at the 58th Venice Biennale 2019, 
reflects the relation between Art, Capital and Social Environment, inviting the 
Public to participate by donating money and to give their opinion on how the 
accumulated capital will be used after the end of the show 
(https://capitalpool.net). 




Following the recent catastrophic flooding and the situation Venice finds 
itself in, the Autonomous Fund, accumulated during six month of the Biennale, 
will support a non profit initiative, dealing with cultural heritage, climate 
change, mass tourism, social and economical effects of this permanent threat. 




The recipient of the 2019 Capital Pool and the Associated Public Autonomous 
Fund is:




We Are Here Venice, “a non-profit association that addresses Venice’s 
challenges as a living city and advocates evidence-based approaches to policy 
making” (https://weareherevenice.org).
