What is a biennale?

A biennale is an international cultural event that takes place every two years, typically lasting several weeks or months. It brings together artists, creatives, and professionals from around the world to showcase their latest works and ideas in various fields such as art, architecture, dance, music, film, and more. Biennales often feature exhibitions, performances, seminars, workshops, and networking opportunities, providing a vibrant platform for cultural exchange, critical dialogue, and the promotion of artistic projects. Some of the most renowned biennales include the Venice Biennale, São Paulo Art Biennial, Biennale of Sydney, and the Sharjah Biennial.
