Symposium Unlearning Biennale

How to think of the biennale not only as a curatorial platform to get involved with contemporary art practices from around the world but also as a tool and process through which we change the way in which contemporary art institutions are run? Is it possible to reform the biennale, so that it operates under more equal economic, gender, and ethnic power relations and under conditions of ecological sustainability? How to imagine a biennale that does not end up in establishing a promising career for a couple of individuals while the rest of the team is exhausted physically, mentally, and financially?
