TBA21-Academy’s eco art initiatives to Venice
TBA21-Academy’s eco art initiatives get new long-term home in Venetian church. Patron Francesca von Habsburg shifts focus from her closed foundation space in Vienna to her new academy building in Venice.
The Austrian collector and patron Francesca von Habsburg has announced plans to set up a new base for her TBA21-Academy in a Venetian church. The new centre, named Ocean Space, is due to open next summer and will be housed in the newly restored church of San Lorenzo. TBA21-Academy, founded in 2011, is the ecologically minded offshoot of Von Habsburg’s contemporary art foundation TBA21 (Thyssen-Bornemisza Art Contemporary).
