The theme for this year’s biennial is “objects”, a suitable theme for an exhibition presented in an art museum, where the object, in the sense of an artwork often is focused upon both historically and in contemporary art.

Electrohype 2010 will focus on electronic artwork with a more defined physical frame than earlier years, but within this defined frame, there will be width, ranging from the mechanical to the organic, from sound to light and from dry observation to humour.

Opening of the biennial Saturday November 27^th at 12-4 pm 

The exhibition will be introduced at 2 pm by Ýrr Jónasdóttir, director at Ystad Art Museum, and presented by the curators Anna Kindvall and Lars Gustav Midbøe from Electrohype.
