The exhibition aims to focus on the most promising emerging visual artists worldwide, presenting works in New Media, Installation, Traditional Media, Photography and Performance. These artists will come from Europe, North America, South America, Asia, and the Middle East, and have been selected by 29 leading international curators. The inaugural exhibition launched on April 26, 2013 and is called "''Reflection & Imagination''" with Jan Hoet serving as the artistic director.〔 ==Overview== BiennaleOnline was founded by David Dehaeck and Nathalie Haveman in 2012.

Hoet previously served as the artistic director of Documenta IX and the museum MARTa Herford, Germany, and was a founder of SMAK in Ghent, Belgium. 25 artists, which are carefully chosen by Hoet, will be represented in the center section of the exhibition called "''Reflection & Imagination''".〔 Jan Hoet died in a hospital in Ghent on February 27, 2014. BiennaleOnline is the first of its kind, curated, exclusively online biennial exhibition of contemporary art.〔 29 Leading international curators select the 183 most promising artists at a critical moment, when they are poised to become established artists.〔 BiennaleOnline aimes to offer an exhibition which breaks away from the conventional notion of Art as an elite pastime, confined to faraway galleries and those with the leisure and funds to enjoy it. BiennaleOnline started with a "Pay What You want" payment wall. The founders very soon noticed that it was blocking visitors from entering the exhibition. In the best interest of the artists it was decided in May 2012 to remove the payment wall to ensure maximum exposure of their works. Soon after the removal of the payment wall the number of visitors surged to 400.000 within 1 year after opening. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「BiennaleOnline」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
