At first read - WOW, the Venice Biennale! Oh, wait a minute, they’re just showing at the same time. OK, let’s check the terms and conditions on the official website of ANIMA MUNDI FESTIVAL (no link supplied). A search returned https://www.itsliquid.com/, which has (of course) no “terms and conditions”. More searching turned up this:

Apparently after you send them your work at your own expense, they start charging you exhibition fees.
