Russia's pavilion returns to the Venice Biennale on May 9 despite an international jury's resignation in protest, showcasing a musical project while the exhibition is restricted primarily to media and experts rather than the general public. The Russian pavilion, operated by relatives of Kremlin officials, represents Moscow's attempt to normalize its international presence amid the ongoing war in Ukraine, which Ukraine counters with its own exhibition featuring a sculpture symbolizing European security fragility.
