Covid strategy: the Estonian Covid strategy restricts the demonstration of the vaccine certificate. If one does not have it, she/he should do the quick test and if negative, join the group while wearing the mask.
KUNO biennale
The idea of the biennale is to bring together the starting artists and curators from the KUNO network in the Nordic-Baltic region - while they are still studying.
There will be a competition for the curatorial concept in every second year among the KUNO students (from curatorial or fine art curricula). Winning concept will be realized - and curator(s) can travel and see the studio works - evaluations - graduation shows of the art students of KUNO academies, to choose the participating art students.
KUNO Biennale would support and strengthen the Nordic-Baltic art scene, allowing the new generation of artists and curators to start their collaboration from early on, creating a strong network, sharing the ideas, practices, formats of contemporary art.
