Teatro del Mondo

Teatro del Mondo is a historic floating theater designed by architect Carlo Scarpa, built in 1980 for the Venice Biennale. It is a lightweight, temporary structure that resembles a small, ornate pavilion, and can be moved into the city’s canals. Its design combines modern architecture with traditional Venetian styles, creating a striking visual presence. When installed, it serves as a cultural venue for performances, exhibitions, and events, enriching Venice’s artistic landscape. The theater's adaptability and craftsmanship make it a unique example of innovative, mobile architecture that celebrates Venice’s history as a hub of art and performance.
