International Biennial of Contemporary Art of Cartagena de Indias
Curated by: Berta Sichel
The Biennial is created with the idea of further enhancing Cartagena as a center for the arts by incorporating the visual arts along with the existing presence of music, literature, and film, and other cultural manifestations already emblematic to the city, for the cultural enrichment of the community
The Biennial brings together artists from different countries whose works will be exhibited throughout the city of Cartagena, including painting, sculpture, photography, electronic and audiovisual media, installation and performance.
