| Just what is it that makes today so familiar, so uneasy? is the title of LIAF 2013. By rephrasing the title of Richard Hamilton’s famous collage Just what is it that makes today's homes so different, so appealing? (1956), LIAF 2013 aims to explore a shift that can be described as one from a condition of successive crises followed by recoveries, to one where crises shape a new permanent condition. It is a question prompted by our present that seems to be stuck in a continuous loop, in which the predominant ideas that have shaped our world are unsustainable and unimaginative when it comes to solving everyday problems people face in most parts of the world. | ||

L’exposition met ainsi au premier plan l’inventivité dont font preuve les artistes contemporains pour raconter autrement des histoires neuves, en défaisant les codes narratifs mainstream, les mises-en-intrigue prêtes à l’emploi. La Biennale de Lyon se compose de trois plateformes : - Une exposition internationale : commissariat Gunnar B. Kvaran en 2013, - Veduta : un programme de coproductions, de résidences et de sensibilisation à l’art, - Résonance : 100 projets d’art visuel et de spectacle vivant. | ||

The most comprehensive international art exhibition organised both in Turkey and throughout the geographical sphere we are in, the Istanbul Biennial plays an important role in the promotion of contemporary artists not only from Turkey but from a number of different countries in the international arena. | ||
