Biennale de l'Image en Mouvement 2018

On the occasion of the Biennale de l'Image en Mouvement 2018, the Centre d'Art Contemporain Genève started a new partnership with OGR - Officine Grandi Riparazioni, Turin. This is an unprecedented collaboration, at least in this form, in the long history of the Biennale. The dialogue between the two institutions has taken place on three different levels: the co-production of works such as those by Meriem Bennani and Tamara Henderson, the creation of a comprehensive catalogue, upcoming in the Fall of 2019, and most importantly the realization of a brand-new, site-specific version of the Geneva exhibition, purposely designed by Andreas Angelidakis for OGR.

This volume is the catalogue of the 16th edition of the Biennale de l'Image en Mouvement (BIM). The Biennale de l'Image en Mouvement was founded in 1985 in Geneva and was reinvented in 2014 as a platform for producing new works. A unique hybrid event- at the crossroads of a film festival, a plethora of solo exhibitions, performances and a platform for research and production-the BIM brings together visual artists, performers, musicians and filmmakers. The latter engage in a dialogue with the curators throughout the production process of a new work, financed or co-financed by the Centre and premiering in Geneva. The Biennale de l'Image en Mouvement in Geneva has therefore become a full-fledged production platform, with each edition presenting only new works.
