Culture Index exists to catalog cultural institutions online, and highlight the best practices that inspire us.
Launching with a focus on museums and building from there, we are a resource for both research and discovery. Browse information about online communications, and discover ideas with examples of what’s possible for cultural institutions in the digital space.
As a community project facilitated by Base, we invite you to use and contribute to this growing resource.
Klaipedos Bienale
‘Transit’ (from the Latin transitus – meaning passage or change) serves as the keyword of the upcoming Biennial, referring to an intermediate state of transition and transformation. This concept unfolds through several interconnected sub-themes. The Biennial itself – by its very nature, an event that occurs every two years – functions as a transient, recurrent phenomenon. In astronomy, transit refers to the movement of one celestial body across another. The title Sunset Every Two Years poetically evokes a sense of extended, frozen, desynchronised time. It gestures both to modernity as a contradictory period, connecting different worldviews and temporalities, and to Klaipėda itself often referred to as ‘the city of sunsets’. As a transit phenomenon, the Biennial offers an opportunity to experience the intersections between planetary and personal time and the field of art.
