Titled “Forming in the pupil of an eye”, the third edition of the Kochi-Muziris Biennale sets off 108 days of the largest celebration of contemporary art in South Asia.
The third edition of the Kochi-Muziris Biennale sets off 108 days of the largest and most anticipated celebration of contemporary art in South Asia. Titled ‘Forming in the pupil of an eye’, KMB 2016 will feature the performances and production of 97 artists from 31 countries. The line-up is a mixture of styles, disciplines and sensibilities with writers, dancers, poets, musicians and theatre professionals sharing the Biennale space alongside a host of visual artists.
Curator Sudarshan Shetty said: “The eye is the only reflective organ in the body. It reflects as much back into the world as it takes. ‘Forming in the pupil of an eye’ is not an image of one reality, but a reflection of multiple realities and of multiple possibilities in time.”
“My curatorial approach was shaped therefore as a conversation between different streams and forms of art practice. This Biennale is intended as a dialogue between multiple perspectives and possibilities as it evolves within the space and through the duration of the Biennale and beyond.”
