Bonavista Biennale Details
The Bonavista Biennale is an innovative, rural-based, public art event occurring every two years on Newfoundland's Bonavista Peninsula. It provides a unique platform for artists and audiences to explore, challenge and express ideas and viewpoints on major issues. Historical and present-day treatment of Indigenous, Black, People of Colour and other marginalized groups; colonialism; diversity and inclusion; climate change and human impact on the planet—these and other issues are relevant both globally and locally. In bringing these issues to our audiences, the Biennale offers diverse artists opportunities to create new works that can excite, provoke and inspire. To have this impact, to innovate and imagine, we take risks, learn, and move forward in the pursuit of artistic, curatorial and organizational excellence.Works by Newfoundland and Labrador, Indigenous, other Canadian and international artists are installed at unconventional outdoor and indoor locations across the Peninsula, embedding contemporary art in the historic spaces and daily places of rural communities. Biennale visitors encounter a rich array of artworks, and the people, culture and powerful sense of place that comprise the Bonavista Peninsula. This unmediated, immersive experience fosters greater understanding and appreciation of the ways in which art enhances our lives, what art can be, and what can be art.
