Autostrada Biennale was established by Leutrim Fishekqiu, Vatra Abrashi and Barış Karamuço in 2014.
As the only contemporary art institution in Prizren, Autostrada Biennale functions on two speeds:
Autostrada Biennale
International Contemporary Art exhibition that takes place every two years since 2017
Autostrada Hangar
The new education, production and exhibition space in the former German KFOR military base now ITP (Innovation and Training Park in Prizren).
With the latter, we have extended the publicness of our platform by considering art production as a sustainable form of learning and exchange that will address the needs of the communities.
Autostrada’s last edition “What if a Journey…” curated by Ovul O. Durmusoglu and Joanna Warsza held in 2021 was spread in 3 cities, with 20 venues in Prizren, Prishtina and Peja, 32 artists, and around 60,000 visitors during the two months public program, this way contributing in the development of cultural life and cultural tourism.
