The Vancouver Biennale mounts, on a bi-annual basis over a 22 month period, an exhibition of major public sculpture installations, performance and New Media events in public spaces within the City of Vancouver-in City parks, beaches, urban plazas and public transit venues, creating a ‘legacy’ of public artworks by the world’s leading Contemporary international artists for citizens and visitors to enjoy.
