Corriere della SeraVeniceVenice Biennale president says he would host Russian Pavilion againIn a 1 Sep 2026 Corriere della Sera interview, Biennale president Pietrangelo Buttafuoco said he would “do it all over again” on the Russian Pavilion and that “Putin didn’t win, art did,” answering culture minister Alessandro Giuli’s earlier claim. ARTnews (2 Sep) and HuffPost Italia cover the same remarks. He also defended formal compliance after the European Commission pulled a €2m grant. ARTnews notes the pavilion admitted visitors only in preview days and is now closed to the public. Did not invent attendance figures or claim a new pavilion reopening.
