Re: florencebiennale
Dear Henk, I haven't heard of this event before, but at first sight, 9 days seems pretty short for a contemporary art biennial, plus, I can't locate any information about their conceptual framework - two facts which contradict with my understanding of the concept. Ours will last for almost 2 months (as usual): http://www.iksv.org.tr/bienal/english/bienal.asp?cid=3&ms=1|1 http://www.iksv.org.tr/bienal/english/bienal.asp?cid=85 Also, AFAIK, nobody pays anything to the biennial committee / organizers for exhibition space in Istanbul. This looks more like a "commercial art fair" (could that be an oxymoron?) than it looks like a contemporary art biennial.
