Documenta usually takes place every five years (so 2002 would be next).  Rex
Moser, who handles the US submissions to most of the international shows of
this sort, reports that the Venice Biennale will probably be postponed until
2000.  (You may remember that there was talk last time of getting the show on
an even-year schedule.  However, Venice went ahead at the last minute, and
this could always be the case again.)
