2009 Florence Biennale

The Florence Biennale is an international contemporary art exhibition held every two years in the Historical Fortezza da Basso. The jury is the most authoritative in the world.
In 2001 The United Nations recognized the Florence Biennale as an official partner in the program ?Dialogue Among Nations?. The artists of the Biennale, despite their differences of language and faith, found a common language in art to communicate their cultural values, illustrating Kofi Annan's statement: "Art opens new doors for learning, understanding, and peace among people and nations".
The Scientific Committee of the Florence Biennale is already working for the next edition 2007, by selecting artists in the following categories: painting, sculpture, graphics, mixed media, installation, photography and digital art. The selection is done without prejudice of style or school. Artists are not selected based on the optics of the national representative but based on the criteria that privileges the quality and the cultural values they represent. Based on opinions from many of the Florence Biennale artists, it is the most democratic Biennale, since it allows the participant artists to choose the artwork to be exhibited, it gives to each artist the same amount of space, it facilitates the encounter and confrontation of artists coming to Florence from all over the world to meet, dialogue and share experiences.
Am I procrastinating, again?

The same with art and design! I am really trying hard to make time and get my ideas down on paper, so I sketch anywhere I can, on the train, in one of many notebooks, and then one day checkout all my sketches and ideas, then decide which ones I?ll draw again and complete. Will I finish this drawing using oil paint, pen, colour pencils, watercolour, or the computer?
Is, sitting and thinking about which medium to use, procrastinating?
Is it a bad idea to procrastinate?
I know eventually, I will make up my mind, and probably draw the same thing in different mediums. I could, cut out the thinking part of it, and just do it!
...nah!
After a lot of thinking, I?ve come to the conclusion that, some kind of thinking can be useful in the process of creating art, especially a big collection of art! It?s not a good idea to rush into things without "some kind of thinking", after all, life is about the choices you make!
This brings me to the idea I came up with for my next solo art exhibition, which will take place in December 08, at the Soho Art Gallery in Osaka, near Tanimachi9chome.
Have an awesome day!
