There is no crime in Venice.  It’s possibly the safest city in the world.  That does not mean, however, that crimes aren’t committed every day. There are.  Here is a list of Venice’s Ten Commandments:

~ CRIMES / FORBIDDEN / THOU SHALT NOT ~

1. Arrive by Grandi Navi;
2. Feed the pigeons;
3. Stop in narrow passages or doorways;
4. Walk in a row;
5. Use a selfie-stick;
6. Wear a backpack on the vaporetto;
7. Sit on the steps of bridges;
8. Get on the vaporetto before people get off;
9. Fedoras of any kind;
10. Americans.

"My most recent concept for thinking about feminist interventions into the study of artistic practice is called The Virtual Feminist Museum. The virtuality is not cybernetic but philosophical. Virtuality is a quality of feminism as a project because feminism is neither the past nor in the past. It is a project for a future still to come." —Griselda Pollock, "Action, Activism, and Art and/as Thought: A Dialogue with the Artworking of Sonia Khurana and Sutapa Biswas and the Political Theory of Hannah Arendt," e-flux journal #92, Summer 2018 (link in bio)
