7th Artishok Biennial: Copy
10 artists will be presenting new works, and for each artwork 10 writers have written accompanying texts.The curators of the 7th Artishok Biennial are Laura Linsi and Roland Reemaa. Amid today鈥檚 compulsive yearning for innovation, the curators鈥� aim is to revive discussions on imitation, simulation and copying. 鈥淐ould it be that blinded by originality and uniqueness, we have unjustly left aside the potential that lies in copying?鈥� ask the curators. Repetition and references, echoing and mirroring, satire and imitation 鈥� in one way or another, the body of work of all the participating artists relates to working with something that doesn鈥檛 belong to them, something that is not obsessed with originality, or something that is intended to be duplicated. With this in mind, the artists were challenged to create new pieces for Copy.
