In continuing projects we find new dimensions, decisions are informed and we move on.



Continuing on from three Melbourne biennials all of which have ignored the fundamental underpinning of a biennial (that it happens every two years) and two of which have also ignored links to institutions and place, the Third/Fourth Melbourne Biennial aims to engage all past Melbourne Biennials and other projects generated either side of them.

The Second/First artist facilitated Biennial focused on an artist-curated model outside of the institution and state, compensating somewhat for Melbourne’s lack of a second biennial, and for the lack of affordable rental space in Melbourne to start dialogues. The Second/Third Biennial stood as a bookend to a two-year artist facilitated project (Y3K) engaged with a local and international conversation, and refined focuses. This upcoming biennial will engage a more amorphous construction: tying up loose ends, re investigating and continuing various overlaps, collaborations, conversations and relationships.



Third/Fourth: Public Event;


Monday 10 June, 12-1pm: Performances/Readings by Sydney (Esther Edquist from Super Star) and S.T. Lore.
