This year, for the first time, the Biennale has replaced the role of executive director with an independent commissioner, Ekaterina Kibovskaya and has made the decision to bring a curator from the same generation as the artists on board, Nadim Samman. Although significantly younger than his predecessors, the artistic director can hold his own, being editor of and having previously co-curated the 4th Marrakech Biennale.
Import Projects, which Samman is also co-director of, is hosting a conversation between both the commissioner and the curator on Monday December 7th, in Keithstrasse 10 in Berlin at 6.30pm, offering with a brief history of the Biennale and an introduction to this years’ theme. Interested artists are invited to join and ask any questions about the open call and selection process.
