11th Gwangju Biennale
2. 9. – 6. 11. 2016
Korea

Fellows

The GB11 Biennale Fellows consist of roughly one hundred small- and medium-scale art organizations across the world whose work makes important contributions to the art of today, yet remains under the radar. Biennale Fellows will continue doing the important work they normally do, without GB11 being involved in their activities.
These organizations often function as the research and development department of the art world, generating new ideas, supporting artists to allow them to experiment and cultivate their practices, shaping new curatorial and educational methods, and fostering active relationships to their field as well as to their physical, social, and political environments. Yet the significance of their works for a wider art and social ecology has not been acknowledged enough.

To All the Contributing Factors

The Forum entitled To All the Contributing Factoris, consists of three days of activities dedicated to questions of value, continuity, and scale through the lens of the art organizational practices of the so-called Biennale Fellows, around 100 small and mid-size “differential” art organizations from various parts of the world, and imagining acts in common. Representatives from about 80 of the Fellows will participate in the Forum.



The Forum will take place at several locations, including the Gwangju Biennale Hall, 518 Archives, Gwangju International Center, Mite-Ugro, and May Mother's House.

National Centre for Contemporary Arts, Ural

self-presentation:

The Ural Branch of the National Center for Contemporary Arts is part of a network of institutions which act as key platform for the creation and promotion of Russian contemporary art and its integration in the global art context. The Ural’s NCCA was initially shaped by the strategy of introducing contemporary art into the city’s public spaces, then came forward with wide-ranging educational programs, research and exhibition projects, art residences, artist studios, and interdisciplinary projects. The Center was dedicated to creatively rethinking the topic of the industrial in the urban environment. It gave birth to the Ural Industrial Biennial of Contemporary Art, which was held for the first time in 2010. The Biennial offers a new vector of the area’s development by utilizing contemporary art as a relevant resource.
