Dan Cameron , Founding Director of U.S. Biennial and Artistic Director for Prospect New Orleans , announced today the list of artists and venues to be featured in Prospect.2, the second edition of the international contemporary art biennial. Opening October 22, 2011 and on view through January 29, 2012, Prospect.2 is currently planned to feature 26 local, national and international artists with diverse cultural and generational backgrounds working in a range of artistic media.
With Prospect.2, we are excited to once again welcome visitors and locals to one of the world's most dynamic contemporary art biennials, says Dan Cameron . Those selected to participate in Prospect.2 include some of the most influential and recognized artists working today, a group of rising younger artists on the cusp of international careers, and artists making significant contributions to the New Orleans arts community. In addition to being a showcase of some of today's most vital art-making, the biennial will again draw attention, creative energy, and economic activity to the City of New Orleans, a historic artistic center, and the Gulf Region.
Exhibiting Artists:
Prospect.2's current list of artists includes 26 artists from nine countries, including the United States, France, Italy, Sweden, Poland, Japan, Chile, and Vietnam. In keeping with Prospect's commitment to the promotion of the visual art community in New Orleans, this year's biennial will feature work by several artists who live and work in the city, as well as a variety of site- specific projects inspired by the city's distinctive history and culture and conceived specifically for the city of New Orleans.
