Founded in 1955, The Ljubljana Biennale of Graphic Arts is one of the oldest biennials in the world. Renowned artist Ibrahim Mahama, this year artistic director of the biennale, and three members of curatorial team: Kwasi Ohene-Ayeh (curator and critic based in Kumasi), Alicia Knock (curator at the centre Pompidou), and Inga Lāce (curator at the Latvian Centre for Contemporary Art), present the upcoming edition of the biennale, From the void came gifts of the cosmos.

Mahama outlines the basic idea of the biennale and explain where the premises of the exhibition come from. Ohene-Ayeh will discuss the pedagogical angle, while Knock and Lāce focus on the history of the Non-Aligned Movement (NAM).

This event is a joint collaboration between Haus der Kulturen der Welt; The International Centre of Graphic Arts, Ljubljana; and the Cultural Centre of the Republic of Slovenia in Berlin – Skica Berlin.
