Maurizio Cattelan Curates 4th Berlin Biennale with Humor and Provocation

The 4th Berlin Biennale for Contemporary Art, titled 'Of Mice and Men,' runs from March 25 to May 28, 2006. Organized by artist Maurizio Cattelan, curator Massimiliano Gioni, and critic Ali Subotnick, the biennale takes place at Kunst-Werke and various venues along Auguststrasse in Berlin's Mitte district. After the third edition was criticized for its theoretical obscurity, the organizers adopt a humorous and provocative approach, which German critics have also reproached. By concentrating activities in Mitte, they aim to engage with the city and its art scene.
