About the Limburg Biënnale

With great pleasure, Marres and Odapark present the fourth edition of the Limburg Biënnale, an exhibition that offers a cross-section of visual art in Limburg and its surroundings.

Every two years, the Limburg Biënnale brings together professional and amateur artists in a special group exhibition that welcomes anyone who feels like an artist: from beginning hobbyists to established professionals.

Following a careful, anonymized selection process, the jury chose 350 works from over 2,500 open call submissions, all of which can be seen across two venues: Marres in Maastricht and Odapark in Venray.

The jury and curator team, consisting of professional artists, reviews the submissions without knowing who created the artworks. They then use their selections to design a space at Marres or Odapark, where they also display their own work.
