Standing Apart

For over seventy-five years, the Venice Biennale has been regarded as the most important international art exhibition. Countries all over the world send their best artists to the Biennale in the hope that they will receive international acclaim and recognition. In 1971, the two artists chosen to represent Canada were Gershon Iskowitz, a painter, and Walter Redinger, a sculptor. This is a lyrical and philosophical film showing their response to the aging city of Venice and to having their works exhibited at the Biennale.
