About Oslobiennalen
Oslobiennalen is an international biennial for art in public space. The projects in Oslobiennalen take public space and spheres in the city of Oslo as a starting point and occurs around the city or in public spheres such as radio, newspapers, internet, publications, film, and so forth. The biennial aims at engaging a varied public in order to underline, expand and disseminate the long tradition the city of Oslo has for collecting and investing in art, and for engaging artists in projects in public space and new buildings. The idea is that through the biennial, local and international artists are invited to work in Oslo with the city itself as a material for artistic production. Oslobiennalen is initiated and run by Oslo municipality, Cultural department. Oslobiennalen First Edition
