2 Moscow Biennale of Contemporary Art (2007)
The 1 Moscow Biennale of Contemporary Art was held in Moscow from January 28 to February 28, 2005. This exhibition laid the concept, structure and traditions of the Moscow Biennale, in accordance with which the subsequent shows were held: the division of the Biennale program into three parts - the thematic main project, special projects and a parallel program, - invitation of special guests, appointment of Commissioner and a curatorial group with a curator-coordinator, distribution of exhibition sites around the city, publication of a catalog, etc.
The organizers of the Biennale were the Ministry of Culture of the Russian Federation, the Federal Agency for Culture and Cinematography (FACC) and the State Museum and Exhibition Center ROSIZO. The Minister of Culture (since 2004 - the head of FACC) Mikhail Shvydkoy was appointed the chairman of the organizing committee, the commissioner - the director of ROSIZO Evgeny Zyablov, the curator-coordinator - Zyablov's deputy and art critic Joseph Backstein. Russian art theorist Viktor Misiano and the international group of curators - Hans Ulrich Obrist, Daniel Birnbaum, Nicolas Bourriaud, Rosa Martinez, Yara Bubnova and Robert Storr - also took part in the development and implementation of the project.
The Moscow and Venice projects are completelly different things. In Moscow we wanted to do something special. A group of curators came here, each with their own ideas, and it is a collective project. <..> We present a new generation of interesting, emerging artists from different countries, from whom we made a focussed selection. We had never worked with many of them before. Hans Ulrich Obrist[1]
The theme of the 1 Moscow Biennale was "Dialectics of Hope", and Boris Kagarlitsky was named the Associated Thinker. The main project sites were the V. I. Lenin Museum, the Shchusev Museum of Architecture and the Vorobyovy Gory Moscow Metro station. As part of the main project, 41 artists from 22 countries presented their works.
More than 30 special projects were posted at the Pushkin Museum, the Tretyakov Gallery, the Central House of Artists, the Moscow Museum of Modern Art (MMMA) and the Museum Center of the Russian State University for the Humanities.
The artists Christian Boltanski (France), Bill Viola (United States) and Ilya Kabakov (United States) were invited as special guests.
Moscow exhibitions of contemporary art were selected for the parallel program, which coincided with the Biennale and were announced by galleries and exhibition halls. Thus, about 300 artists took part in the event.
