Call for Entries - Texas Biennial 2013


The Texas Biennial is an independent survey of contemporary art in Texas. The fifth edition of the exhibition will take place in the fall of 2013, making the Texas Biennial the longest-running state biennial in the U.S.

For the first time in the project's history, in 2013 the curated group survey that is the central feature of the Biennial will be installed in a single venue and will represent all artists selected from the open call. This exhibition will take place September 5 – November 9, 2013 at Blue Star Contemporary Art Center in San Antonio.

During the run of the exhibition, selected performance works will also be presented at CentralTrak–The Artist Residency of the University of Texas at Dallas. Another first in the Biennial's history will be the inclusion of a commissioned artist project presented by Ballroom Marfa.

In celebration of the 5th anniversary of the project, the Texas Biennial is also pleased to announce a special exhibition of current work by selected past Biennial artists. This exhibition will be presented simultaneously at Lawndale Art Center in Houston and Big Medium in Austin, August 23 ‒ September 28, 2013.
