  • apply till the 15th September, 2012. The 9th Kaunas Biennial under the title UNITEXT will be opened in Kaunas September 2013. Please read the conditions for participation http://www.bienale.lt/2011/?p=2163&lang=en Kaunas Biennial UNITEXT 2013 - +37061256171

    More about the notion UNITEXT
    Please send the application to
    info@kaunas.biennial.lt (max 25 MB per e-mail); subject: UNITEXT proposal till 15th September, 2012

    The 9th Kaunas Biennial UNITEXT will create conditions for immediate collisions of an artwork and a spectator, allowing the experience of art as a universal text. Curators of the exhibition together with artists will pursue a concept that is new and unfamiliar in a cultural context and will consolidate it by presenting practical examples. We will go into the question of a unitext, which is the latest link in work -> text -> intertext -> hypertext -> unitext semiotic chain of artistic field.
    According to the consistency of this chain the UNITEXT exhibition claims a privilege to present novel ideas about the art at the level of structural and notional revelation. The suggestion is to perceive unitext in this chain as a universal artistic language, which unifies different experiences and concepts. The exhibition will provide a unique voice for each artwork instead of handling this task to explanatory texts. We believe artworks themselves are suggestive, influential and complete enough. We invite artists to present works experiences of which are based on a direct confrontation with an object / space / semantic field. We invite to present unitexts, which are seen through intuition, materiality, spontaneity, sensuality, feeling, here and now experiences.
