The Luleå Biennial stretches across the vast region of Norrbotten. Budding into the arctic circle at Sweden's border to Finland, the region - with its heavy industries, mining landscapes, high-tech research centers, unique nature and the historical homeland of the Sami people, Sapmi - plays host to one of the world's northernmost art events. This time, the biennial will take place in Luleå, Boden, Malmberget, Storforsen, Arjeplog and Korpilombolo - in an evacuated school, in a church, at a silver museum, at art centers, in a former prison and at Norrbotten's Regional Museum.
The Luleå Biennial is an international biennial for contemporary art where global and hyper-local perspectives come together in site-specific installations.
