Artist and photographer GarthIvan has been awarded with a place in the Florence Biennale, happening in Florence, Italy in October 2023 – a potential breakthrough in his career and a tremendous leap in visibility to his work. 

With 10,000 visitors to the event annually, and sponsorship logos appearing in the exhibition catalogue, website, and on-site, it is also a chance for the sponsor to be a highly visible patron of the arts.

Reflecting on the opportunity, Garth said:

“I’m both delighted and a little overwhelmed to secured a place at the 2023 event.

“As costs to participate and attend run beyond beyond my abilities, I am hoping to secure some level of sponsorship for this event, and – in return – the sponsor(s) will receive services from Agency withHeart at equivalent value, as well as brand placement in the Biennale exhibition catalogue and show, of which more information below.

“I tremendously appreciate any consideration for this as it’s both a huge opportunity, and something I cannot undertake alone.”
