2nd Jerusalem Biennale (2015)

The 2nd Jerusalem Biennale, held in 2015, was a contemporary art event that took place in Jerusalem, Israel. It followed the inaugural Biennale in 2013 and served as the second iteration of a recurring platform dedicated to showcasing contemporary art that engages with Jewish thought, identity, and experience.

The Biennale featured a diverse range of artistic mediums, including painting, sculpture, photography, video, installation art, and performance art. Participating artists, both Israeli and international, presented works exploring a variety of themes relevant to Jewish culture, religion, history, and current social and political issues.

The event was hosted at multiple venues across Jerusalem, including museums, galleries, cultural institutions, and public spaces. This multi-site approach aimed to integrate the art into the fabric of the city and encourage wider public engagement.

The 2nd Jerusalem Biennale sought to foster dialogue and critical reflection on Jewish identity and its relationship to the broader world through the lens of contemporary art. It provided a platform for artists to express their perspectives and for audiences to engage with complex and nuanced interpretations of Jewish themes. The Biennale aimed to contribute to Jerusalem's cultural landscape and to promote cross-cultural understanding through art.
