People live in the society of the spectacle as a very fundamental condition of existence. They perceive the world and communicate through a system of image production and representation dominated by the logic of market capitalism. This is also the very contemporary condition of our self-identification and social order ‘guaranteed’ by the established power system. As a main typology of artistic and cultural events of our time, biennials of contemporary art stand as an ultimate form of expressions of such a tendency. Taking place in several venues in Lyon city and its suburban areas, the Biennale, with works by about 60 artists from different parts of the world, is structured as a multi-dimensional system that reflects both intellectually and physically the dynamism and complexity of the thesis – the Spectacle of the Everyday – itself. ‘Veduta’ is one of the sections in which several artists are invited to reside in the suburban areas with a large immigrant population, which are known for their historic events. They collaborate with the local population and produce new works to be exhibited in both the residency sites and the Biennale venues, notably in the museum.
