For the 2nd Biennale, 'Saskia Bos has selected artworks and artistic approaches which actively seek contact with the spectator or address themes with a social or participatory content. The exhibiton therefore integrates such concepts as engagement with the world and empathy, and casts a critical eye on a self-possessed art system with all its entanglements and codes.' - Excerpt from preface by Eberhard Mayntz, Chairman of the Berlin Biennale.

The catalogue includes artist biographies, as well as artist statements and interviews.
