XII Baltic Triennial is a decidedly transdisciplinary event that, in its own motto of sorts (‘What is an artwork today, can be something else entirely tomorrow’) is mainly interested in the ‘something else’. The exhibition opens up a range of topics and their couplings including influence, exchange, materiality, and impact. It’s primarily an exhibition at the CAC, but the programme of events – talks, launches, presentations, classes and performances – spanning six weeks will expand behind the scenes.
