Sharjah biennial

Sharjah biennial http://www.sharjahbiennial.org The Sharjah Biennial 8 (SB8) will present various attempts in visual arts and film that address the growing social, political and environmental challenges the world is facing due to excessive urban development, pollution, political ambitions, and the thoughtless misuse, abuse and exhaustion of natural resources. SB8 will focus on the renewed role of art in addressing a wide range of issues that directly and radically affect, and in an alarming magnitude the human existence on this earth (man's relation to earth and earth's relation to man). The biennial will not only stand for these issues as a venue and a platform for presentations, exhibits and discussions, but will take an active role in commissioning artists to produce new work corresponding to the topic at hand and will also partner with institutions to stimulate wider involvement with the issues brought up particularly amongst educational institutions.

We are aware of the critical ambiguity of the subject we touch, of its growing importance and the great responsibility it carries with it. We are also aware that we are part of the product-producing and -consuming society, and of the constantly growing tribe of biennials, that year-by-year makes a growing number of artists, curators and audiences jet around the globe, hopping from event to event. We are aware that many things we do contribute to the problem being considered. So perhaps, we are better off by not criticizing too much. And inasmuch as Sharjah, being part of the UAE - whose economy is mainly based on fuel reserves and recently benefited tremendously from its power resources utilizing them to create a superficial, man-made world, with its addiction to cars, high-rises and technological progress
