CONTOUR IS BLOGGING
On the brand new Contour 2013 website you can find practical information about the biennial and information about the artists and art works.
But there’s more: Contour is blogging! A team of young bloggers have interviewed the artists and curator, and in words and (moving) images, they give you a glimpse behind the scenes of the exhibition. With more than twenty new art works, we wanted to give you an insight into ‘the making of’ Contour. Follow the Contour blog here.
