This multi-year initiative between ICI and Fundação Bienal de São Paulo (FBSP), made possible by a leadership gift from ICI Trustee Sarina Tang, aims to promote international curatorial research and artistic exchange, with an initial focus on establishing opportunities for collaboration between China and Brazil over the next six years.
In its initial form, the partnership will facilitate curatorial research in Asia, and particularly China, in consultation with the curatorial teams of the three upcoming editions of the Bienal de São Paulo. ICI will leverage our expansive network of curators and collaborators in both regions to develop new curatorial knowledge, and the initiative will also support the participation of artists from China in the 2025, 2027, and 2029 Bienal editions.
