Carolyn Christov-Bakargiev, Artistic Director, has announced Revolutions - Forms That Turn as the exhibition concept for the 2008 Biennale of Sydney.

REVOLUTIONS - FORMS THAT TURN
Ms Christov-Bakargiev said today: 'I imagine the 16th Biennale of Sydney as a constellation of historical and contemporary works of art that celebrate and explore revolving, rotating, mirroring, repeating, reversing, turning upside down or inside out, and changing perspectives - both in art and life. Through installations, performances, films, texts, an evolving online venue, conversations and other events, Revolutions - Forms That Turn articulates the agency embedded in forms that express our desire for change. Such literal and formal devices will be charted for their broader aesthetic, psychological, radical and political perspectives.

The Biennale of Sydney has showcased contemporary art from Australia and around the world since 1973 and is one of the largest and most exciting contemporary visual arts events.

The 16th Biennale of Sydney will run from 18 June to 7 September 2008 and will be held at venues and sites throughout Sydney, including the Art Gallery of New South Wales and the Museum of Contemporary Art.
