The Atlantic Biennale: Untold Saga<\/em> is the offspring of current Artists-in-Residence Robertas Narkus (LT). Narkus describes his practice as the management of circumstance in the economy of coincidence. He brings together the ordinary and the absurd to explore notions of chance economics, hypothetical experiences and symbolic capital.<\/p>\n

Narkus is a participant in the collaboration project Climbing Invisible Structures,<\/a> a curated visual arts residency exchange and exhibition programme organised by the Nida Art Colony of Vilnius Academy of Arts (NAC)<\/a> (Lithuania), in collaboration with the Office for Contemporary Art Norway<\/a>, the Nordic Artists Centre Dale<\/a> (Norway), Skaftfell Center for Visual Art <\/a>(Iceland), and the Ars Communis Residency Centre YO-YO <\/a>(Lithuania). Curators are Egl\u0117 Mikalaj\u016bn\u0117 and Samir Mkadmi.<\/div>\n
