28 june - 31 october, 2014, Saint Petersburg


"Manifesta" is the world only mobile Biennial that changes its location every two years in order to establish a dialogue between different regions of Europe.

St. Petersburg due to its historical ties with Europe today is the most suitable city for such dialogue.

The State Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg looks to be an ideal venue for the 10-th jubilee biennial which mission is to appeal to the origins of the "Manifesta".

Mikhail Piotrovsky, the director of the State Hermitage, says on the biennial: "The staff of Manifesta 10 under the leadership of the curator Kasper König have created wonderful, inspiring, critical and thought-provoking exhibition. It takes place in significant place and important time – in St. Petersburg, in 2014, when our museum celebrates its 250-th anniversary. We are pleased to accept the "Manifesta" and the painters – its participants, whose works will be great contribution to the event ".
