CONCEPT

Within the current context of the shifting nature of politics,
economics, and culture - conditions that are increasingly referred to
as "precarious" times - artists often have to negotiate risky
positions, contested territories, or situations in which cultural
activity interacts with, or provides a counterpoint to, conditions of
flux. Bucharest Biennale 5 profiles the work of artists whose agency
lies less in overt statements, but rather in investigative, indirect,
or informal strategies that possess their own kind of power.

Anne Barlow (born in Glasgow, Scotland), the appointed Curator of
BB5, is Executive Director of Art in General, New York. She acted as
Curator of the Scottish Arts Council Collection of contemporary art
(1989-1994) and Curator of Contemporary Art and Design at Glasgow
Museums (1994-1999). Also from 1999-2006, she was Curator of Education

 REZERVATI-VA DATA: 24 MAI 2012 - DESCHIDEREA OFICIALA

BUCHAREST BIENNALE 5, generata de PAVILION – journal for politics
and culture, va avea loc in perioada 25 Mai – 22 Iulie 2012 si o are
drept curator pe Anne Barlow (UK/USA).

Deschiderea oficiala este programata pentru joi, 24 Mai, 2012. In
cadrul BB5 vor avea loc numeroase evenimente precum prelegeri,
performances, si dezbateri.

CONCEPT

In contextul actual al naturii schimbatoare a economiei, societatii
si culturii—situatii care sunt adesea numite “vremuri precare”
— artistii trebuie sa isi negocieze adesea pozitii riscante,
teritorii contestate, ori situatii in care activitatea culturala
interactioneaza sau ofera un contrapunct la conditii de flux. in
cadrul acestui context, Bucharest Biennale 5 reliefeaza creatia unor
artisti al caror portofoliu nu consta neaparat in situatii evidente,
ci mai degraba in strategii investigative, indirecte sau informale,
care poseda propria lor forma de putere.
