Today biennials are the most important indicators of contemporary art. Their significance is reflected in the continuously growing numbers of visitors and the media hype that meanwhile accompanies them. The event offers visitors a glimpse into the international art world and an opportunity for a condensed experience of contemporary art.
Today biennials are the most important settings and indicators of contemporary art. Their significance is reflected in the continuously growing numbers of visitors and the media hype that meanwhile accompanies them. They are simultaneously a stage for "big names" and a sought-after platform for young, ambitious artists, who are thus able to present themselves in an international spotlight.
With Biennale Cuvée the OK has created an exhibition form that does justice to this international trend. Now for the second time, the OK presents a selection of the most interesting and best works from the most important art biennials around the world: Venice, Sydney, Moscow, São Paulo, Taipei, Shanghai, Seoul, Sharjah, Gwangju and Mechelen. It offers visitors a glimpse into the international art world and an opportunity for a condensed experience of contemporary art.

UnDo.Net è un dispositivo di creazione di valore immateriale; pensato come "ecosistema" della cultura contemporanea, come modello partecipativo che sviluppi la condivisione di ricerche, risorse e conoscenze, la collaborazione e lo scambio.
In questi 20 anni UnDo.Net ha perseguito il suo scopo: inventare un nuovo spazio, che prima non esisteva, di sperimentazione e di ricerca, di confronto e di dialogo.
Anche in futuro UnDo.Net rimarra' consultabile e a disposizione di tutti gratuitamente.
