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.

Talking Art, Seoul

self-presentation:

Talking Art is a collective of cultural producers who are dedicated to making a Korean-language podcast about contemporary art every month. It started with its first upload on 25 April 2015 and has already released seventeen episodes and counting, giving a voice to individual artists and important topics, as well as an annual overview of exhibitions in Korea. Talking Art was born out of the urgency of finding alternatives and ways of connecting the digitally oriented generation with engaged forms of art, because the current media landscape has been failing to provide these efficiently. In particular, Talking Art values clear language and listening minds against the increasingly populist use of language in the field today. Talking Art is an affiliated organization of Art Space Pool, Seoul.
