The exhibition is divided into four modules: a presentation of good practices; a presentation of art works; an analysis of the 20th century production situation; public presentations, panel discussions, talks, and performances.

As the aim of this year’s U3 is to draw attention to the unexploited possibilities for improving production capacities in the field of visual practices, we wish to present a number of examples of good practices which have attained, each in its own way, a stage where the artist can develop his or her oeuvre in a continuous and planned manner. These examples are not presented as a display of artifacts; their presence in this year’s U3 emphasizes the fact that this way of thinking is possible and, indeed, imperative.

The second module is presenting eleven selected art projects, displayed in separate compartments as eleven solo exhibitions. It is necessary to separate the projects in order to avoid false allusions to any supposedly common features between the chosen projects; they, on the contrary, derive from very distinct, individual poetics.

The central room is dedicated to elements on which the principal topics of this year’s U3 converge: production conditions in the field of visual practices, internationalization, large formats, socially responsible themes … Furthermore, all the fourth-module activities are also held in this room.

Rather than in space, the fourth module is actually situated in time: it will be realized in the course of the exhibition. From January through early March the artists selected for this module (both exhibiting artists and those who will be presented through their contributions to the forthcoming proceedings) are presenting their work. The possibilities of residential programs were presented by foreign guests, panel discussions will be organized by the end of the exhibition, and concerts and performances will all take place within the framework of this module…
