Screen City Biennial (SCB) is the first Nordic Art Biennial dedicated to research and exhibit the expanded moving image in public spaces. It explores the relation between the moving image, sound and architecture and presents artistic formats that seek to expand the borders of the cinematic experience. The architecture of the Norwegian port city Stavanger facilitates an exhibition of new formats and the use of moving image in contemporary artistic practices.

The Biennial’s main objective and vision is to develop new artistic experiences with the expanded moving image in public space and to develop discourse, capacity and network in a Nordic and international context through artistic research, film programs, talks and the SCB Journal.

Screen City was established in 2013 in Stavanger, Norway. From 2017, it has been presented as Screen City Biennial in close collaboration with local and international art institutions and organizations. SCB is founded and directed by Daniela Arriado. For the 2019 Biennial edition, titled Ecologies – lost, found and continued, Stavanger harbor is an important focus for production and presentation of the art. The Biennial presents moving image artworks from a broad range of international artists in dialogue and conjunction with the urban sphere and context in the city of Stavanger.
