Gwangju Biennale

Jubilee is invited as Biennale Fellow at Forum GB11
Forum To All the Contributing Factors
02/09- 04/09/2016
at various locations in Gwangju, Korea

 

Jubilee has been invited by Maria Lind, director of the 11th Gwangju Biennale, and curator Binna Choi,  as one of the Gwangju Biennale Fellows  to the three-day Forum entitled To All the Contributing Factors.  The GB11 “Biennale Fellows” consist of one hundred small and medium scale art organizations from across the world, whose work makes important contributions to the art of today, yet remains under the radar. In the forum, Biennale Fellows, as well as their peers and colleagues, are invited to come together to manifest a critical mass in the artistic context internationally, share experiences and discuss the future of this kind of work, especially with regards to questions of value, continuity and scale.
Maria Lind, Binna Choi and their team want to use the occasion of working on a biennial to acknowledge the invaluable work of small organizations across the globe. They believe such  organizations often function as the research and development department of the art world, generating new ideas, supporting artists to experiment and cultivate their practices, and shaping new curatorial and  educational methods; foster active relationships to their immediate surroundings, be they urban, suburban or rural and keep open to other fields of knowledge and social movements. This way they make  differences in relation to dominant mainstream developments.

Jubilee will take part in presentations and discussions during the  Forum.  To All the Contributing Factors  will take place  from 2 September until 4 September 2016 at various locations in Gwangju.
