Much like the large, international-scaled biennials that have become ubiquitous vehicles for identifying and showcasing trends and particularities in contemporary art, the DePauw Biennial was conceived as a means of bringing attention to the innovative work of artists based in the Midwest. Although it is more modest in scale and scope than its more comprehensive counterparts, its objective is the same: to legitimize the artists and work being produced in the region by inserting them into contemporary art discourse and to break with the isolation of the local/regional art scene by connecting it to a larger, national/global art world.
Invited artists and artist groups/collectives include: Biggest Temporary Gang Ever (Biggest Fags Ever, Temporary Services and ausgang), CarianaCarianne, Matt Coors, Paul Coors, Ken Fandell, Diana Guerrero-Maciá, Kevin Hamilton, Terence Hannum, Mark Harris, Stuart Hyatt, Stephen Irwin, Andrew Loughnane, David Lozano, Sarah Lyon, newsense enterprises, Brian Nicely, Cynthia Norton, Melissa Pokorny, Letitia Quesenberry, Chris Radtke, Academy Records/SIMPARCH/Chris Vorhees, José Versoza, Matthew Waldbillig and Matthew Weddington.
