The BA International Biennale for the Artist’s Book
Posted on
The BA Arts Center holds the 4th round of the Bibliotheca Alexandrina International Biennale for the Artist’s Book from 22 April to 25 May 2010.
A workshop precede the Biennale, held at the Alexandria Workshop Center from 15 to 19 April 2010, with the participation of 15 artists from 12 countries, in addition to art students who will join artists in producing artworks, hence benefiting from works side by side with established international artists.
“Nomadic Cultures” was chosen as a theme for this round, considered by the Italian Art theorist Achille Bonito Oliva – coiner of the term ‘transavantgarde’—as an essential component of any transavantgarde artist. General commissioners of the Biennale are artists Fernanda Fedi and Gino Gini.
The exhibition shows the creations of 46 artists from 25 countries which will remain to enrich the BA permanent artist books collection.
