On the occasion of the upcoming 4th Thessaloniki Biennale of Contemporary Art, the exhibition “1,2,3, b4” comes as a precursor of the 4th Thessaloniki Biennale program.

The title of the exhibition refers to the Biennales that took place in the city of Thessaloniki in 2007, 2009 and 2011, while the pun b4 (= before) refers to the upcoming 4th Biennale of Contemporary Art, which will be hosted in the city by September 18th, 2013 at various venues with numerous exhibitions and events.

The artworks presented in the exhibition were productions of the previous Central and Parallel Programs of the organization (the three International Young Artists’ Workshops, as well as the last Performance Festival and the Public Screen Project).

The works are donations from the artists to the collection of the State Museum of Contemporary Art and to the city of Thessaloniki.

Artists from different countries and backgrounds coexist in a project preparing the ground for the fourth year's edition of this successful event.

All works/projects reflect the ideological content of the previous Biennales, apart from reflecting their individual and international sociopolitical ideas and concepts.

The exhibition is on view until September 4, 2013 at Contemporary Art Center, Warehouse B1, Thessaloniki port area.
