Lori Waxman, 60 wrd/min art critic, ongoing project, dOCUMENTA (13), Karlsaue Park

The second issue of artcore journal examines an array of biennial formats, frameworks, and ways in which artists and curators navigate these ever growing biannual phenomenon, including; the diverse themes of biennials and how they are addressed; the participating institutions and their current role in biennial culture; the chosen artists, curators, and their work involved in making exhibitions; as well as individual experiences, and the global impact that biennials have on artistic, economic, and cultural discourses.
