Opening event: 4.09 at 16.30
Address: Remmelga 8, Narva
Exhibition opening times: Friday, 4.09 at 12–19; Saturday 5.09 at 12–19, Sunday 6.09 at 12–16.

In September, the nomadic Pori Biennale takes place in the striking post-industrial Narva Venice (Kulgu), imagining what a biennale could be when shaped by local history, architecture and communities. 

Continuing Porin Kulttuurisäätö collective's long-term research into the biennial format, the project examines how a biennale might function as a site for co-existence, collaboration, activation and event. Art does not always need grandiose exhibition halls – rather, it needs people who come together.

Artists: Baran Caginli (TR/FI), Kristin Wiking (SE/FI), Jonas Palekas (LT), Sashapasha: Pavel and Sasha Rotts (FI), Aksel Haagensen (EE), Ulvi Haagensen (EE/AU). Cotyledon project: Helena Atkin (UK/EE) and Daria Titova (UA/EE).

Curators: Anna Jensen & Eliisa Suvanto, Porin kulttuurisäätö

Pori Biennale VII takes place alongside Station Narva, the music and city festival that since 2018 has filled Estonia's easternmost city with music, art, communal gatherings and cross-sector initiatives.
