In Praise of Doubt opens at Pinault's Punta della Dogana gallery




In Praise of Doubt has opened at Francois Pinault's Punta della Dogana gallery, a former Venetian Republic Custom House located at the centre of the lagoon on the Grand Canal. Assembled to explore "the questioning of certainty of identity" and "the relationship between intimate and personal dimension", the exhibition features works by Maurizio Cattelan, Dan Flavin, Roni Horn, Felix Gonzales-Torres, Subodh Gupta, Donald Judd, Jeff Koons, Paul McCarthy, Sigmar Polke and others.
