About B3:
Since
2013, the B3 Biennial has determined the cross-genre and transnational
discourse on trends and developments in the moving image in the thematic
fields of film, art, games and XR/VR. National and international
artists and media professionals speak out on the future of storytelling
in the digital age.
The aim of B3 is, on the one hand, to create a
broad interdisciplinary alliance for the moving image and, on the other
hand, to offer the international cultural and creative industries a
comprehensive platform for innovation and exchange. In the context of
the major national and international film and media festivals, art
biennials, technology congresses and trade fairs, it has thus acquired a
special position, as it very successfully initiates a wide-ranging
dialogue across sectors and genres.
As a cross-media moving image
festival with film screenings, exhibitions, conference and workshop
programmes, including competition formats, it addresses professionals
from the creative and media industries, business, politics, science and
the interested public as target groups.
The B3 has changing main
themes (B3 Focus) to provide a framework for the content: Expanded
Narration (2013), Expanded Senses (2015), On Desire (2017), Realities
(2019), Truths (2020).
B3 is divided into the event formats
festival (B3 exhibition, screenings, feature film series, short film
series, conference programme, and campus/market (presentations,
workshops, one-on-one meetings, pitchings).
The B3 honours
established artists and young talents with the internationally renowned
BEN Award. In the race for main and newcomer prizes are works by artists
of the B3 Biennale who are particularly innovative in their use of new
narrative techniques.
The B3 Biennial of the Moving Image is
organized by the Offenbach School of Design (HfG). The B3 is supported
by the Hessian Ministry of Science and Art (HMWK). The strategic partner
of B3 is THE ARTS+.
