Biennale of Sydney moves to digital experience
The COVID-19 pandemic and potential impact on the safety of visitors, artists, staff and wider community remains the top priority.



SYDNEY.- For nearly 50 years, the Biennale of Sydney has presented some of the most dynamic contemporary art from around the globe in iconic venues across Sydney.

This year’s exhibition, titled NIRIN and meaning ‘edge’ in Wiradjuri, is an artist- and First Nations-led biennale showcasing more than 700 artworks by 101 artists and collectives. A global platform for diverse cultures and perspectives, the Biennale unites people across the world, stimulating dialogue and inspiring change.

The COVID-19 pandemic and potential impact on the safety of visitors, artists, staff and wider community remains the top priority. And so, in line with the latest advice from Government authorities, the Biennale of Sydney is closing its public exhibitions from Tuesday 24 March 2020 until further notice.

The Biennale of Sydney will continue to adapt and innovate in the face of this global crisis. The doors close across Sydney, and they will open online – for everyone, everywhere across the world. The organizers remain steadfastly committed to the artists and communities they serve by moving to a digital program.

Working with long-time Biennale partner Google - and in a first for the Biennale of Sydney - audiences around the world will be able to engage with NIRIN on the Google Arts & Culture platform. Creating a virtual Biennale will bring the exhibition and programs to life through live content, virtual walk-throughs, podcasts, interactive Q&As, curated tours and artist takeovers.

At times like these, it is more important than ever that people find ways to connect, to help each other, listen, collaborate and heal – all core themes of NIRIN.

The Biennale remains artist-led and will allow artists to lead the way in responding to the urgent social, political, and environmental issues we are facing today.

Organizers look forward to welcoming you back to the physical exhibition when the Government authorities deem it safe to reopen.
