(Anti)Fragility: Arts of Repair and Counter-Shock Strategies
For the 16th edition of the Dakar Biennale, the Steering Committee has selected Morad Montazami, Director of Zamân Books & Curating, to serve as Artistic Director.
An art historian, publisher, and exhibition curator, Morad Montazami is entrusted with developing an original curatorial project that takes into account the specific mission and values of the Biennale of Contemporary African Art.
The overarching concept centers on “(Anti)Fragility: arts of repair and counter-shock strategies.”
For the Artistic Director, to be (anti)fragile is to adopt an attitude that transforms fragility into a strength—both expressive and artistic—by emphasizing social and communal bonds, particularly through co-creation.
