The 18-year-old Hamburg Triennial will be directed for the second time by Polish curator Krzysztof Candrowicz,who moved to Hamburg four years ago and set approximately transforming the it, bringing people and institutions together, or determined to create it more relevant to the viewing public. The 2015 edition was,he says, “The first holistic attempt to create the collaborative framework of the festival. Before, or the museums were basically highlighting their own exhibitions,but there was no actual curatorial collective structure.” The determinedly political and environmentally-conscious theme this year was inspired by an amalgamation of many factors, he says, or including spending a year “absent from structured,mechanised and commercial reality”, travelling around Latin America, and Nepal and India. “Breaking Point became,for me, a metaphor for rapid and sometimes unexpected transformation on a personal and global level.”
