It also refers to the triangular area of Venice where the Grand Canal meets the Giudecca Canal, and its collection of buildings: Santa Maria della Salute, (hence the area is also known as Punta della Salute), the Patriarchal Seminary of Venice, and Dogana da Mar at the triangle’s tip.Table of ContentsGeography and history[edit]Dogana da Mar[edit]Restoration[edit]Exhibitions[edit]See also[edit]References[edit]Bibliography[edit]Further reading[edit]Geography and history[edit]  Punta della Dogana is located between the Grand and Giudecca Canals at the tip of an island in the Dorsoduro district.[2] Adjacent to each other are the Dogana da Mar, Patriarchal Seminary, and Santa Maria della Salute.[3] It is diagonal from the Piazza San Marco.[2]The point was used for docking and customs as early as the beginning of the 15th century. The temporary structures built to store merchandise and customs workers were replaced by the Punta della Dogana, whose construction began in 1677.[3]Dogana da Mar[edit]The museum’s art is housed in and around the Dogana da Mar building. It was built between 1678 and 1682 as a customs house[2] by Giuseppe Benoni. The arcade styles reflect their construction in different eras.[3] Atop the building are two statues of Atlas holding a golden globe upon which the figure of Fortune stands. The 17th-century statue turns in the wind.[3] The group was built by Bernardo Falconi[4]to represent the supremacy of the Republic of Venice.[2] The last renovation of the building was done by Alvise Pigazzi in 1838.[3]Restoration[edit]The building was restored by Tadao Ando from January 2008 to March 2009, funded by Fran\u00e7ois Pinault,[5] a French billionaire and art collector.[2] He signed a 33-year agreement with the city.[6] The building had been empty for decades prior, with failed plans to turn it into apartments or a hotel. Dogana da Mar’s stuccoed brick exterior was restored without additions, and is the only part of the original structure left intact. Cosmetic imperfections and the stucco were repaired, and bad areas were reinforced with stainless steel anchors, but areas with visible brick were left exposed. The interiors were left bare without surface treatment, and bricks were replaced sparingly. The room partitions from the last two centuries were replaced with parallel, rectangular halls. The roof was replaced by a similar roof with timber gables, with added skylights. The new floors are made of exposed and polished concrete, in some places covered with linoleum.[2] Frank Peter J\u00e4ger called these smooth surfaces Ando’s trademark, along with glass and steel fixtures that clash with the raw irregularities of the unfinished walls. He added that, for Ando, this combination “symbolizes the union of past, present, and future”, the building, his architecture, and the art within it, respectively.[2] Ando wanted to make the western entrance’s face out of concrete slabs, but the change was opposed by the city.[2] Exibart’s Jacqueline Ceresoli described the building as having “industrial and minimalist soul” with red brick walls.[5] The renovation cost was \u20ac20,000,000.[2]Exhibitions[edit]In June 2009, Punta della Dogana reopened to the public and since then has been presenting temporary exhibitions[7] of the Pinault Collection:Mapping the Studio: Artists from the Fran\u00e7ois Pinault Collection, curated by Francesco Bonami and Alison Gingeras.

Ray made an eight-foot-tall boy holding a frog by its leg intended as a public sculpture called Boy with Frog.[6] The sculpture’s permit was set to be negotiated four times annually. Boy with Frog was originally encased upon the museum’s July 2009 opening after protests following its installation. The city moved in early 2013 to replace the statue with a reproduction of the streetlamp once situated there. Its spokesperson said that the sculpture’s installation was designed to be temporary. Ray refused an offer to relocate the sculpture to Palazzo Grassi, opting to put the sculpture into storage. Independent curator Francesco Bonami wrote in La Stampa that the removal was “administrative cowardice” and the lamppost represented “cultural darkness”.[6][9]See also[edit]References[edit]^ “The history \u2013 Punta della Dogana”. palazzograssi.it. 2013.
