Proyectos Raul Zamudio is pleased to present Biennial Means Necessary, an international, mixed-media, group exhibition. The title takes its name from two sources, the ubiquitous biennial that plagues the contemporary art world, and a phrase associated with some of the most iconic individuals of the latter part of the twentieth century: Jean Paul Sartre, Frantz Fanon, and Malcolm X.
Portmanteau=a word or phrase blending the sounds and combining the meanings of two others, for example motel (from ‘motor’ and ‘hotel’) or brunch (from ‘breakfast’ and ‘lunch’)
Biennial=(an event) lasting for two years or occurring every two years; biennale, the Italian word for "biennial" and a term used to describe an international exhibition of contemporary art, stemming from the use of the phrase for the Venice Biennale. (The English form, "biennial", is also commonly used to describe these art events.)
By any means necessary= attributed to three sources, Jean-Paul Sartre, Frantz Fanon, Malcolm X
