Göteborg
2nd International Biennial for Contemporary Art reflects and com-
- ments
on reality - that preposterous, inexplicable and occasionally invisible
- reality
we'd most of all like to escape. It does so with art which refuses to
- provide
an alibi. Art not for decorating, apologising or glossing over, but for
- never
giving up hope and never giving in. Because reality also holds ans-
- wers
and solutions, if you only choose to see them. The Biennial will show
- work
by 27 artists from all over the world. They work indifferent ways, but
- share
an attitude: they love life and firmly reject everything that is vapid,
uni-
- form
and stagnant. And they don't shy away from moving you by shocking
- you.
So treat yourself to some unreality escapism. You've got all summer.
