The Moscow Biennale was initiated by The Ministry of Culture of the Russian
Federation. In terms of the project realization, an organizing committee, headed
by the chief of the Federal Agency for Culture and Film, has been formed. The
Biennale’s main project was put together by an experienced team of six
international curators: Joseph Backstein, Daniel Birnbaum, Nicolas Bourriaud,
Iara Boubnova, Rosa Martinez and Hans Ulrich Obrist. Artists from China, India,
USA, Cuba, Korea, France, Germany and others (including six from Russia) were
among those taking part under the conceptual frame work of " new seriousness" and
the "aesthetics of interaction".
The 1st Edition was held in February 2005 under the Direction of
Commissioner Evgeniy Ziablov
