XII Bienal de la Habana 2015

 The 12th Havana Biennial is structured around the theme of ‘Between the idea and experience’ and takes a look at contemporary art from the most dynamic, multidisciplinary and process-based artists. 

In order to explore paths different to those characteristic of mega-exhibitions, the 12th biennial is designed as a decentralised event that takes place all over the city in everyday spaces and circumstances that have not played a role in previous editions. It is therefore interested in practices involving cross-disciplinary and intermediary creative processes that give rise to investigative and educational collaboration, emphasising the idea of the city as an active social laboratory.
 
Collective perception is transformed into the challenges and uncertainties generated by experience, where new cultural horizons open up and other ways of socialising and interconnection are created. The projects presented at Havana influence its inhabitants, either because they take part in devising and executing them or because the works are a living social laboratory. The idea is for the various layers of the urban fabric – universities, research centres and everything that makes integration possible – to be used as a site and material for working with.

AC/E is supporting the participation of Spanish artists María La Ribot, Cuqui Jerez, María Jerez and  Esperanza Collado; and curators Christian Domínguez and Alicia Chillida.
