MEDIA RELEASE 22 MAY 2002 BIENNALE OF SYDNEY ANNOUNCES CURATOR FOR 2004 EXHIBITION Isabel Carlos, a freelance curator and art critic from Portugal, was today confirmed as the new artistic director for the Biennale of Sydney 2004 exhibition. Ms Carlos was selected from a strong field of local and international curators who were invited to submit proposals for 2004. Luca Belgiorno-Nettis, Chairman, Biennale of Sydney Board said, "this is the first time a curator has been appointed two years ahead of the next event and during a current Biennale. It not only provides for Isabel a longer lead time to develop her exhibition but also the opportunity to experience the Biennale here in Sydney first hand and get sense of what we can deliver". Isabel Carlos is a Lisbon-based freelance curator, writer and art critic. She was the founder and Deputy Director between 1996 and 2001 of the Instituto de Arte Contemporānea (IAC) for the Ministry of Culture, Portugal where she ran the international collection.
