The biennial curated by Ali Akay, under the title Further Away, asks questions about how one can move beyond all the artistic, political and sociological problems experienced today. The biennial focuses on these problems as a proposal to observe, think and create artistically. The program includes film screenings, performances and artist talks in the distinctive historical and architectural sites of Mardin.
About Mardin Biennial
The Mardin Biennial was first organized in 2010 with the aim of transforming Mardin into a center of contemporary art and bringing new approaches and gains to the region through the language of art. Throughout its 14-year history, it creates a meeting space for artists, art lovers and art professionals through contemporary art.
The biennial, which aims to contribute to the visibility of the existing artistic accumulation and production in the region as well as presenting the artists' messages about life, takes place both in Mardin's historical sites with their unique architecture and culture, and in places where daily life continues. Adopting a structure that aims to spread art throughout the country by bringing new dimensions to the definition of the conventional idea of 'center', the biennial is hosted by Mardin Cinema Association.
