The topic of human-technology relations will become the main one at the fifth Ural Industrial Biennale, which will be held from September 12 to December 1 in Yekaterinburg and Tyumen. Seventy artists from 25 countries are going to take part in the project. The events of the last biennale, which took place in Yekaterinburg two years ago, were attended by more than 40 thousand residents and guests of the region, the website of the Ministry of Culture of Russia reports.
Artists will work at two sites - the Ural Optical and Mechanical Plant and the Coliseum Cinema. The expositions will be opened in several museums, exhibition halls and art galleries in Yekaterinburg, as well as in the Tyumen museum complex. Artists will present works in various genres that reveal the theme of creativity in the era of technology and the theme of immortality.
Following Biennale topic, the organizers looked for industrial sites. Two years ago, the project took place in the former workshops of the Ural Instrument-Making Plant and received wide international attention.
Note that Russian participants presented a pavilion dedicated to the history and the Hermitage collection at the Venice Art Biennale. The Russian pavilion has become one of the most popular at the biennale.
