Inspired by a quote of Walter Benjamin, the 3rd Periferic
Biennial brings together twenty artists from a number of different
contexts. The exhibition is to be held in Iasi in Northeastern
Romania from May-June 2003. The venues include a disused Turkish
bath and the Palace of Culture, a former court of law that now
houses four museums.

and Baltic countries. He is also the founder of one of the most
prestigious institutions in the art world, NIFCA (Nordic Institute
for Contemporary Art).
