In 2019, the Peggy Guggenheim Foundation in Venice will commemorate two significant anniversaries: 70 years since Peggy Guggenheim took residence at Palazzo Venier dei Leoni, acquired in 1949, and 40 years since her passing on December 23, 1979. These events will be celebrated through the program 'Continuità di una Visione.'

L’ultima Dogaressa' (September 21, 2019 to January 27, 2020); and 'Migrating Objects' (February 15 to June 15, 2020).
