Biennale de l'Image en Mouvement 2016

The celebrated Biennale de l’Image en Mouvement (Biennale of Moving Images) returns to the Centre d’Art Contemporain Genève this November, proposing once again a new configuration for the biennial format. This hybrid event—situated somewhere between a cinema festival, a constellation of solo exhibitions and a site for research and experimentation—will propose 27 brand new works commissioned and produced for the occasion by 26 cutting-edge Swiss and international artists and artist duos.
