Biacs 2

Reales Atarazanas and Andalusian Centre of Contemporary Art (CAAC), Seville

The Unhomely: Phantom Scenes in Global Society.

Opening on 26 October 2006 and running through 8 January 2007, the Second Edition of the International Biennial of Contemporary Art of Seville (BIACS 2) will bring a wide array of programming to numerous sites located both within and adjacent to Seville and the greater Andalusian region.

Under the direction of the late Harald Szeemann (1933-2005), the 1st Edition of the Seville Biennial (BIACS 1) brought a large number of internationally recognized artists to the city, signalling the development of the region as a growing part of the larger community of contemporary art. Now with BIACS 2, the Artistic Director Okwui Enwezor will expand upon the foundation established two years ago, with the exhibition project: The Unhomely: Phantom Scenes in Global Society.
Artistic Director of Documenta 11 in Kassel (1998-2002) and the Second Johannesburg Biennale (1996-1997), Enwezor will work closely with a number of individuals and organizations to create various sites for reflection, interaction, and critical dialogue. These sites will serve as forums for artists, thinkers, and the public to consider the situation of contemporary art today and artists engagement with a wide range of aesthetic, political, social, and cultural issues. These activities will unfold along a number of axes:

To begin, Biacs2 will occupy two main sites within the city of Seville: Andalusian Center of Contemporary Art (at the Monasterio de la Cartuja) and the Reales Atarazanas, an impressive shipbuilding structure dating to the mid 13th century, the new venue of this second edition. The exhibition will move across the Guadalquivir River to link the Isla de Cartuja with the historical centre.
Both venues will show a rich collection of sculpture, painting, photography, film, video, and other largescale installations by internationally renowned artists. Besides the CAAC and the Atarazanas, the Biacs2 will seek to intervene directly in the public urban space to attract the impression of the man in the street: balconies, shop windows in the city centre and even one of the bridges spanning the Guadalquivir River will serve as the frames for different artistic projects in the second edition.
Continuing with Enwezor’s engagement with methods of dissemination of knowledge, the two main sites of the exhibition will be augmented by several collaborations between BIACS and cultural institutions based in the city. One such collaboration is an extended pedagogical program with the University of Seville. This program will be reinforced through lectures, conferences and presentations by visiting scholars, artists and thinkers. Specifically, the artistic director of Biacs2 will direct a Curatorial Workshop in which several internationally known curators and scholars of contemporary art will come to Seville as part of this program. In addition, the University will also carry out a project entitled Under Fire: Seminars Addressing the Organisation and Representation of Violence, led by the artist Jordan Crandall.

Such a constellation prompts us to ask, “What is the space of the Unhomely?" To answer this question, the exhibition must look beyond the metaphor of the city and begin to reflect upon the complex nature of adjacency and the asymptotic importance of residing next-to, outside-of, or with-in a given site. For example, how might we begin to evaluate the nuanced relationship between Northern Africa and Europe, as a problem space? If so, then how do artists, activists, thinkers and the public address, confirm or deny this?

To engage the issue of adjacency the exhibition project will utilize a number of venues and forums that includes a film festival in collaboration with the Cine'mathe'que de Tanger, planned for late autumn, under the title Among the Moderns. This Festival will not only address the complexity of the space existing between Europe and North Africa, but also provide a platform for further dialogue on the concept of neighbourliness. Films and videos produced by artists of different horizons (geographic and aesthetic), but who work all to redefine the representations produced on and from the Arabic World.

Firstly it is meant to break a normative iconography widely relieved by the media, and secondly it is especially meant to create an auditory for relevant voices and a basis to see the complexity of this space, including the singular modernity which we negotiate there (between the tradition and the modernity invented and modelled by the West).

In order to expand the expositive concept to include new ways of perceiving things, so that the Biacs2 can be experienced from multiple points of views and not be limited to mere figurative contemplation, the exhibition will include a new and essential component, the theatre. It will not be perceived as a performance, but rather as a series of dramatic readings that will communicate the most basic sense of the direct relationship between the texts and the audience, with nothing else in between.
Further, a bi-weekly Op-Ed column in collaboration with the cultural magazine ABCD Las Artes y Las Letras will be published in national press, beginning in September of this year and running throughout the course of the Biennial; this ongoing project will serve as an additional outlet for philosophers, artists, thinkers, and cultural critics to reflect upon the condition of The Unhomely tracing the great disturbances that have unsettled social, cultural, economic and political relations in many regions of the world. More than simply a series of articles and interviews, this aspect of the Biennial will be a vital public tool for critical debate in a global community.

Finally, in conjunction with The Unhomely: Phantom Scenes in Global Society, a comprehensive catalogue will be published in the form of a book and a reference. Not simply a representation of Biacs2 and the exhibition, the catalogue will feature a variety of critical essays by thinkers from philosophy, art, political theory, and will represent the moment in which the exhibition takes place.

Exhibition venues:
Centro Andaluz de Arte Contempora'neo - Monasterio de la Cartuja

The Andalusian Centre of Contemporary Art (CAAC) was founded in 1990 with the intention to enhance Andalusia with an institution to investigate, conserve, promote and diffuse international contemporary art in its diverse concepts of expression. Next to the creation of a permanent collection of contemporary art, which evolves over the time, the CAAC conducts a program of activities with a clearly educational character (temporary exhibitions, seminars, workshops, concerts, meetings, recitals, movie screenings and conferences).
In 1997 the Carthusian Monastery became the headquarters of the CAAC, a change that implicated the conversion of the Centre of Contemporary Art into an self-governed organisation- dependent on the Regional Cultural Affairs Office of Andalusia- who managed the personnel as well as the collections of the former Monumental Ensemble of the “Cartuja" and the Museum of Contemporary Art of Seville.
The cultural offer of the CAAC is being supplemented by the visit to the monument itself, which accommodates an important artistic and archaeological heritage, a result of its own expansive history. Founded in the year 1529 by Gonzalo de Mena, the Archbishop of Seville, the monastery’s fame is primarily attributable to its porcelain and tile factory, which was installed on the premises in 1841 by the English merchant Charles Pickman. The bottle-shaped ovens, to which the monumental complex owes its unique exterior appearance, date from this period. There are some historic remnants from the Carthusian era, such as the Italian Renaissance funeral monument of the monk’s Chapter, a few Mude'jar works such as the cloister, and the Gothic heritage that can be observed in both the church and the primitive chapterhouse. The wealth and importance of the Monastery are evidenced by the collection of paintings by Zurbara'n, presently exhibited in the Museum of Fine Arts of Seville, the chapel where Christopher Columbus was buried, the remains of a Roman necropolis and the important collection of old tiles that still belong to the Monastery. The Monastery was declared an historical and artistic monument in 1964 and a Monumental Site in 1989. It served as the Royal Pavilion during the World Exposition of 1992, and at present it houses the headquarters the Instituto Andaluz de Patrimonio Histo'rico or IAPH (the Andalusian Institute of Historical Heritage) and the Universidad Internacional de Andaluci'a or UNIA (International University of Andalusia).

Reales Atarazanas
At the urging of the BIACS 2 artistic director, Okwui Enwezor, and as a consequence of the Foundation’s desire to bring the exhibition to other venues in the city centre, the Reales Atarazanas (Royal Shipyards) - in the very heart of the old city - seemed a brilliant choice for expanding the exhibition to include a building renowned for the stark beauty and attractiveness of its galleries.
The Atarazanas, built in 1252 by order of King Alfonso X (“Alfonso the Wise"), were originally comprised of 17 immense halls, constructed perpendicular to the Guadalquivir riverbank and abutting the Almohade defence wall around the city. In the late 15th century, the complex ceased to be a shipyard and changed hands on innumerable occasions; it served as a port authority outpost, a fish market, a hospital, Army barracks and rented storage space. In 1945, the five Mudejar halls on the south side were demolished, and in 1993 the Regional Government began to restore the monument for use as a cultural venue.

The films and videos will be shown at the Reales Atarazanas in original version.

The Foundation for the International Biennial of Contemporary Art of Seville was incorporated on 22 May 2003 for the purpose of directing, organising and producing the Biacs. The 28 founding members of this private, not-for-profit entity were willing and able to provide the necessary impetus for the realisation of the first edition; these founders made every effort to land the Biennial in the cultural limelight, thus guaranteeing its continuity and international relevance. This step represented a milestone in the history of Andalusia: for the first time, a private initiative of citizens and society decided to promote and realise a project of these characteristics and dimensions on an international level.

The BIACS Foundation has received ample support from the principal Public Institutions at the local, regional and national levels, acting as Benefactors and Patrons, as well as from a wide variety of Andalusian and Spanish businesses and professionals who contribute to the creation of the event as Sponsors, Patrons and Benefactors.
