The 10th Beijing International Art Biennale (BIAB) has opened its doors this January, presenting a vibrant tapestry of global creativity under the theme 'Coexistence'. With participation from artists across 100 countries and regions, this year's event highlights humanity's shared aspirations through innovative digital installations, traditional ink art reinterpretations, and a dedicated showcase of Serbian contemporary works.
Curators emphasize the biennale's role in fostering cross-strait and international artistic dialogue, particularly through hybrid exhibitions merging augmented reality with classical techniques. A standout feature includes interactive projections exploring harmony between urban development and ecological preservation – a timely subject as Asian cities accelerate sustainable infrastructure projects.
The Serbian pavilion's 'Echoes of the Danube' installation has drawn particular attention, blending Balkan folk motifs with AI-generated landscapes. This synthesis mirrors the biennale's broader mission to create what organizers call 'third spaces' – where cultural traditions intersect with technological innovation.
