Xiaomi 12 Pro in dialogue with the Art Biennale

Xiaomi 12 Pro was the first smartphone to cross the threshold of the Italian Pavilion of the 59 International Art Exhibition of the Venice Biennale. He did it for all the eighty days in which the artist Gian Maria Tosatti and the curator Eugenio Viola gave shape to the History of the night and fate of comets. A monumental work that occupies the 2000 square meters of the Tese delle Vergini, at the Venice Arsenal. “In this extraordinary context, Xiaomi has entered the history of art with its support for the Italian Pavilion, documenting the construction site of the work created by Gian Maria Tosatti, trying to imagine its final realization and previewing his vision through the production of exclusive video content », he stressed Davide Lunardelli, Head of Marketing of Xiaomi Italia. “Demonstrating how technology can help artists by amplifying the exposure of their messages to an increasingly transversal audience and by supporting a continuous dialogue between the work of art and the visitors themselves.”
