The first edition of Oslo Biennal will begin in May 2019. Eva González-Sancho and Per Gunnar Eeg-Tverbakk, who were responsible for supervision over a project called Oslo Pilot, which investigated the correlation between art and the public sphere, will be the curators of the first edition of Oslo’s Biennal.
The main goal of the following biennale is to put art in public spaces. Rina Mariann Hansen, Oslo’s vice mayor of culture and sport, says: "The future biennal marks a new phase in the city of Oslo’s ambitious commitment to art and represents another step in Oslo’s long tradition of major art projects in the public realm. By unfolding in public spaces, the biennial will activate the city and merge with its daily life in a way that will inspire and challenge both the art and its audiences".
