Theme: Immortality
For the Biennial it is quite vital to work with the specificity of the Ural region, each time developing new sides of the industriality. Approaching the 5th edition and reflecting on the results to date, the Ural Industrial Biennial opts for the theme Immortality. From the multitude of immortality presentations, the Biennial considers the ones which resonate with modern artistic and research worlds. Immortality enables the transition from reflections on production outputs and the specificity of an industrial process, enclosing with production repetitiveness, to consideration of universal phenomena and deep notions. It is a constant conversation about time and space, men’s place in any new emerging and constructed reality and his right for its interpretation.
