2nd Athens Biennale 2009 HEAVEN
 
2nd Athens Biennale 2009 - HeavenThe Athens Biennale functions within an international network of large-scale periodic contemporary art events. It emerged from the intense cultural activity that makes Athens one of the most interesting places for contemporary art, and it aims to be an agent of constant change and innovation, provide a context for creativity and dialogue and constitute a wide platform for the designation and the critical engagement of local artistic production, as well as a forum of discussion and exchange with the international scene.
 
The 2nd Athens Biennale 2009 HEAVEN opened to the public on June 15th and will last through October 4th. The 2nd Athens Biennale 2009 is conceived as a multifaceted contemporary art festival that extends along the coastline of Athens, in the central areas of Palaio Faliro and Kallithea. The six exhibitions of the 2nd Athens Biennale 2009 are complemented by a series of performative events lasting all through the summer.
 
The Athens Biennale is organized by the Athens Biennale Non-Profit Organization, which was founded in November 2005 by Xenia Kalpaktsoglou, Poka-Yio, and Augustine Zenakos.
