Features: Over the past decade, large-scale contemporary international art exhibitions have become increasingly popular worldwide. Both the central cities of developed countries and the major cities of developing countries are eager to host international contemporary art biennales as a bridge to the world. These exhibitions primarily include biennales held every two years and triennials held every three years, with biennales being the most common. Influential biennales often invest millions to tens of millions of dollars, attracting the attention of hundreds of thousands of art audiences worldwide and global media. Like the historic Venice Biennale, which is often referred to as the Olympic Games of international cultural and artistic events, hundreds of renowned artists from around the world gather, along with national pavilions from dozens of countries across the city. The biennale transforms Venice into a true paradise for contemporary art.
This book primarily introduces various levels of contemporary international art exhibitions, such as biennales, triennials, and documentation exhibitions, as well as their status, characteristics, and frequency. Additionally, it covers the participation of Chinese artists in international exhibitions and provides an evaluation of the status and impact of international art exhibitions.
