The Biennale of Western Balkans starts Art Pluriverse, a community science series on intangible cultural heritage, art and open knowledge. The 1st edition opens in December 2020 with a month-long online programme of collective actions, focusing on textile communities and their artistic heritage in the Balkan region. 

Art Pluriverse offers opportunities for artists, creatives, researchers and Open GLAM enthusiasts, together with cultural communities, regionally active groups and underrepresented collectives, in order to co-create research-based artworks and digital community archives.

The modules include artist-community online synergies, an Open GLAM online course, a VR public experience and a writing jam. The full programme of Art Pluriverse with the selected artists, communities and participants will be announced during November, 2020.

*In light of the contemporary global conditions, the second edition of BoWB (2020) has been postponed. Instead, Art Pluriverse is being developed as part of the Biennale’s year-round programme taking place in adjusted digital settings.
