Emergency Biennale in Chechnya
World Tour/ stop 9 / İstanbul Biennial
Kadıköy Public Education Centre
September 8-November 4, 2007
Curator: Evelyne Jouanno, Paris/ San Francisco
Co-curator : Ceren Erdem, İstanbul
Emergency Biennale in Chechnya wishes to reintroduce Chechnya to international attention while questioning the phenomenon of proliferation of the international biennials. Emergency Biennale in Chechnya underlines the urgent necessity to redefine the critical commitment of art in reality as well as our human responsibility as actors of both artistic and social life. Emergency Biennale opened on 23 February 2005 both in Grozny (different places in the city) and Paris, Palais de Tokyo. This non-budget project was realized as a mobilization with more than sixty international artists who accepted to provide a work and its duplicate created to fit in a suitcase to be shipped to Chechnya and different other cities in the world for mirror exhibitions. After Paris, the travelling exhibition stopped in Brussels (Matrix Art Project), Bolzano (EURAC), Milan (Isola Art Center), Riga, Latvia (Riga City Hall Exhibitions Center), Tallinn, Estonia (Tallinn Art Hall), Vancouver (Centre A) and as a laboratory in Puebla, Mexico (Plataforma). For each stop, new artists are invited with the collaboration of a local curator and additional suitcases are prepared to be sent to Chechnya. The itinerary around the world is planned to end up in Grozny with the meeting of the artworks and their twins. The collection will then become the base of a museum, even if this one remains nomad and virtual for an indeterminate period.
For this 9th stop of Emergency Biennale in Chechnya/World Tour, the co-curator Ceren Erdem invites the artists Ahmet Öğüt, Hüseyin Bahri Alptekin, Banu Cennetoğlu, Ives Maes.
