ABOUT US
AIZENEV was conceived from the reversal of Venice through its reflection.
A dream to revitalize the Venetian artistic movement,
bringing together artists, creatives and artisans from all over the world from here, Venice and its islands.
AIZENEV is proposed as a virtual space where you can find and buy art from contemporary local and international artists.
Venice is in crisis — not just from rising water, but from rising prices, mass
tourism, and the disappearance of the people who give the city its soul.
Artists, artisans, and young creatives are being pushed out, unable to afford to
live or work here. Studios lie empty. Talent is leaving in waves. Without urgent
action, Venice risks becoming a ghost city — beautiful but hollow, a museum
without makers.
We founded Aizenev to reverse that trend.
Our mission is to build a vibrant, self-sustaining creative industry in Venice — one
that connects artisans with patrons, transforms abandoned spaces into shared
studios, and trains the next generation of makers.
Our vision is bold but simple: visibility, space, and skills.
We spotlight local artists through curated events and a virtual gallery. We revive
disused buildings into affordable, community-led studios. And we invest in
people, offering hands-on training, apprenticeships, and mentorship to keep craft
alive for generations to come.
WHAT WE BRING
What makes us different is how we bring it all together — with radical accessibility at the
core, and long-term impact as the goal.
We’re not just connecting artists and patrons — we’re creating the conditions for a
thriving creative ecosystem in Venice. Our strength lies in how we activate this network:
blending visibility, intimacy, and radical accessibility across both digital and physical
spaces.
Our signature events don’t just promote art, they create momentum.
The Aizenev Festival brought this to life: over 40 artists and musicians exhibited in
Venice’s historic spaces, with bespoke exhibitions, performances, and collaborations that
attracted both local audiences and international attention.
This is the Aizenev formula:

This is the Aizenev formula:
● We bring the artists (deeply embedded in Venice’s creative scene).
● We open the venues (hidden, historic spaces with real character).
● We attract the patrons (a committed, growing network of collectors and cultural
allies).
Our work is grounded in radical accessibility: every event is mobility-accessible, every
venue chosen with care, and every connection — whether between artist and patron, or
artist and space — designed to be lasting.
