EMAP exhibition & events @WRO Biennale 2019 HUMAN ASPECT

May 15, 2019, 5:00 pm - July 28, 2019, 6:00 pm

On its 30th anniversary, the WRO Biennale, Poland’s largest show of international contemporary art, which commenced as the International Sound Basis Visual Art Festival in 1989 and has explored the development of communication tools ever since, offers a critical scrutiny of processes unfolding in culture, communication, and society by examining the CZYNNIK LUDZKI / HUMAN ASPECT in a post-technological perspective.

The Biennale will feature special invitation projects and a varied set of works selected from among more than 1,700 submissions from across the world.

Over 100 works will explore the complexities inherent in the current relations between the human and the technological, with the human as an initiator, a recipient and, sometimes, a victim of these mutating interplays.

The WRO exhibitions and events, shows, concerts, performances, etc. will be staged at several locations across the city of Wrocław. The Biennale’s special projects include EMAP – Polish premieres of 6 works produced within the European Media Art Platform.
