Manifesta 2. European Biennial of Contemporary Art

– Casino Luxembourg - Forum d'art contemporain, Foundation European Art Manifestation, International Foundation Manifesta

Host City: Luxembourg
[...] Though very much sought after in the years following the raising of the iron curtain, Eastern European artists - once subject to an almost "fashionable" interest - have been gradually disappearing from the international art scene. This reality has been the starting point of Manifesta. According to its founders, Manifesta should become the experimental ground for a new wave of major international exhibitions by taking into account the new European cultural space as it is emerging at the end of the 1990s. [...] (from the statement of the curators, 1997)
