Utställningen pågår från den 17 juni till 30 juli 2023.
Årets tema är KÄRLEK:
The theme of the Kaarisilta Biennale 2023 is Love, a word so big and multi-meaning. Love for a partner, friend, family, work, nature, animals, own culture and home, travel, architecture, colors, music, sports, dance, books, gardening… The list of objects of love is probably endless. Food has been said to be one of the most genuine objects of love. Love has many forms. Romantic love is just one of them. Love matures, deepens and sometimes fades, evaporates.
In the time we live in, there is a need to thought of which things are really important, worth cherishing and dear to us.
Totalt 340 konstnärer och konstnärsgrupper ansökte i år. Årets jury leddes av konstnären Arto Määttä.
Kaarisilta Biennals mål är att möjliggöra konstnärlig dialog mellan olika artister och organisationer. Biennalen verkar för att konst för personer med speciella behov blir mer tillgängliga för allmänheten.
Kaarisilta Biennale äger rum i Ersta Mansion i Villähti och dess omgivningar som är kända för naturens skönhet. Vi visar även Kaarisilta Biennale i Konstkaarisilta Art Gallery i Helsingfors centrum och i Lahti’s visual arts museum Malva, partner till Kaarisilta Biennale.
Kaarisilta Biennale kommer i år även att inkludera konserter och performing arts.
