BLACK CLOUD — KYIV BIENNIAL 2019
The third edition of an experimental biennial forum for art, knowledge and politics — Black Cloud — Kyiv Biennial 2019, conducted as part of the newly established East Europe Biennial Alliance (Biennale Matter of Art in Prague, Biennale Warszawa, Kyiv Biennial, and OFF-Biennale Budapest), brings together artists, academics and activists to develop a consistent understanding of the last three decades in the history of Eastern Europe, largely defined by the Chernobyl disaster of 1986, the subsequent collapse of the Soviet bloc, and the emergence of a unipolar global regime of governance equipped with a new technological arsenal. This edition will focus on surveillance and privacy in the web, digital forms of warfare, artificial intelligence and its political and civic implications.
