OPEN CALL 
DEADLINE: 10 February 2025

The Graphic Arts Biennale, established in 1999, is a cyclical review/competition presenting the works of young-generation artists working in the area of graphic arts. In 2019, the competition formula was changed as thematic areas were defined to expose alternative values entering into dialogue with contemporary culture and everyday life. The new formula of the Biennale has been adapted to changes in contemporary art related to post-artistic activities (1:1 art, ‘utilitarian’ art and material realism) and to transformations conditioned by the role of graphic statements in the context of social activities (activist movements).

IMPORT/EXPORT is the theme of the 14th Graphic Arts Biennale, which will take place in Poznań in the spring of 2025. It refers to the hierarchy of dependencies between core countries and the periphery that lead to cultural self-colonization and perpetuate this division of the world. Here, import and export allude to the exchange of culture-forming artistic phenomena. The competition is addressed to artists from all over the world, aged 18 to 40 years. In stage one, preview files of original graphic works together with a short description of the idea and technique used shall be sent by 10 February 2025 using the online Application Form.

Works qualified by the jury for stage two of the competition shall be sent in the form of physical media to the address given on www.grafikaart.pl. The works nominated for awards will be presented at a post-competition exhibition organised at the Municipal Gallery Arsenał in Poznań and published in a catalogue accompanying the exhibition. We cordially invite you to participate in the 14th Graphic Arts Biennale in Poznań, Poland.
