What art biennials can do, as they become globally prevalent form of connecting between urban culture and urban space, comes closer to formulation as one looks at this fluorescent wall that cuts silhouettes at the edges of exhibition visitors who in their turn change the pattern that the picture captures as it takes the space before the artwork into a wide focus gaining in depth at exactly the interface between the urban space that lets audience in and the urban culture that travels around the globe, sprouts in a grass roots manner in creative quarters, and becomes occasionally encased in museum-like settings of biennial shows.
