Shanghai Biennale: Itziar Barrio and Jorge Oteiza

any works from the Basque artists Jorge Oteiza and Itziar Barrio will take part in the 14th edition of the Shanghai Biennale, which will be celebrated from the 9th of November to the 31st of March 2024, as a result of all the work done in the programme ZABAL.

The main purpose of this 14th edition (entitled ‘Cosmos Cinema’) is to explore the cosmos in its complexity, presenting artists that research the relation between the microcosm and the macrocosm in different cultures, paying attention to the ecological aspects, through reflection on the role of the human being in the cosmos, presenting artists who reflect on local cosmologies within a decolonial discourse, as well as artists who study the relationship between the cosmos and ideology.

Not only the works from Itziar Barrio, but also the pieces from Jorge Oteiza are situated in the same concept.
