A Roma pavillion at the Venice Biennial

At this year's Venice Biennial for the first time there's a pavilion dedicated to the art of a minority - the Roma, who live in several European countries. Among those whose work is on display is British artist Daniel Baker, who in an interview with Agnes Bihari talks about his identity and his art. "I am a Roma, there's no doubt about that, but at the same time I'm an Englishman. But that's the way it is for everyone, isn't it? Our identity is composed of several elements, one of which pushes itself to the fore... I paint on mirrors, not canvases. The mirrors point to an imaginary place which society has allocated to the Roma. We're never seen as we really are. We're perceived either as a social problem or as romantic, slightly mysterious figures holding violins or some other such prop."
