About
Agnès Biro currently works as Exhibition and Residency Manager at CEAAC in Strasbourg. She graduated with a BA in Fine Art at Central Saint Martins (UK) and obtained a MA in Curating Art from Stockholm University (SE) where she researched the evolution of the Bruges Triennial's curatorial approach from 1968 to 2021 to investigate the influence of contemporary art on one's way of experiencing the city.
Agnès acquired diverse experiences internationally including working for the State Hermitage Museum (RU), The Other Art Fair (UK), Gallery Antonine Catzéflis (FR), the Art Center Ygrec-ENSAPC (FR), the 2021 & 2024 editions of the Bruges Triennial (BE) and as part of the exhibitions team of Frac Grand Large in Dunkirk (FR).
Interested in the dialogue between heritage and contemporary art while looking at investing spaces outside the traditional institution, Agnès' freelance projects include : La Dérive (2022), a mysterious invitation sent for an evening art walk in a secret location in Bruges after sunset; A moment in time (2021), a goup show with internationally renowned contemporary artists set in the (1856) neoclassical house of Flemish poet Christine D'haen; Overflow (2020), a pop-up exhibition staring three art graduates from Konstfack University in a student corridor room; and Interruption (2021), a single day experience involving four artists in the frozen landscape of the Swedish woods. As a curator, she is looking at ways of manipulating spaces that change people’s natural rhythm and flow and help punctuate their sense of reality.
