SMACH Biennale is a disseminated art exhibition that, every two years since 2012, has made a series of works conceived and installed in relation to some of the most beautiful places in Val Badia and the UNESCO Dolomites freely accessible to the public. In the six editions organized so far, we have presented 60 installations (many of which are now permanently exhibited at SMACH Val dl’Ert) that interact with nature, history, identity, and the culture of the territory, conveying non-stereotypical visions of the Alpine landscape. The Biennale aims to spark visitors’ interest both in contemporary visual art and in the locations where the artworks are set. Additionally, it aspires to stimulate imagination, critical thinking (e.g., regarding many controversial aspects of the human-nature relationship), and abstract thought in the observer. As in every edition, the artworks for the 2025 Biennale will also be selected through the dedicated call for proposals presented here. Among the project proposals received, 10 will be selected and funded based on the judgment of the technical and artistic juries, which will reward those best able to engage with the locations and theme of the 2025 edition. Enjoy the reading of the call for proposals, and if you decide to participate, good luck with your work!
