Sobre su proyecto Okwui Enwezor detalla:
Las rupturas que proliferan en cada esquina del paisaje global hoy día evocan los desvanecidos escombros de sucesivas catástrofes apilados a los pies del ángel de la historia, el Angelus Novus. ¿Cómo puede el desasosiego de nuestra época ser captado, hecho comprensible, examinado y articulado? En el transcurso de los últimos dos siglos los cambios radicales han hecho surgir nuevas y fascinantes ideas tratadas por artistas, cineastas, actores, compositores, músicos como temas de sus obras. En reconocimiento de ello, la 56a Exposición Internacional de Arte de la Bienal de Venecia, All the World's Futures [Todos los futuros del mundo] propone un proyecto dedicado a una nueva evaluación de las relaciones del arte y los artistas con el actual estado de las cosas.
All the World's Futures is both a spatial and temporal manifestation that is relentlessly incomplete, structured by a logic of unfolding, a program of events that can be experienced at the intersection of liveness and display. It will be a dramatization of the space of the exhibition as a continuous, unfolding, and unceasing live event. In doing so All the World's Futures will activate works that are already existing but also invites contributions that will be realized especially for this Exhibition.
This Filter, located in the Giardini and the Central Pavilion, Corderie, Giardino delle Vergini in the Arsenale, and selected areas in Venice, takes the historical ground of la Biennale in the Giardini as a metaphor through which to explore the current "state of things The Biennale Arte 2015, returns to the ancient ground of this ideal to explore the changes in the global environment, to read the Giardini with its ramshackle assemblage of pavilions as the ultimate site of a disordered world, of national conflicts, as well as territorial and geopolitical disfigurations. The artists have been invited to develop proposals that take the concept of the garden as a point of departure to realized new sculptures, films, performances, and installations for All the World's Futures.
Beyond the distemper and disorder in the current "state of things," there is one pervasive preoccupation that has been at the heart of our time and modernity. Since the publication of Karl Marx's massive Capital: Critique of Political Economy in 1867, the structure and nature of capital has captivated thinkers and artists, as well as inspired political theorists, economists, and ideological structures across the world. A core part of this program of live readings, is "Das Kapital" a massive meticulously researched bibliographic project, conceived by the artistic director in the Central Pavilion.
With this outlook, All the World's Futures, through its constellation of Filters will delve into the "state of things" and question "the appearance of things", shifting from the guttural enunciation of the voice to the visual and physical manifestations between artworks and the public.
