    The 11th International Istanbul Biennial will take place between 12 September - 8 November 2009 and takes its title, "What Keeps Mankind Alive?" from the closing song of the second act of Bertolt Brecht's The Threepenny Opera, written 80 years ago. The curators of the upcoming Istanbul Biennial are the members of What, How & for Whom / WHW, a Zagreb based collective made up of four women: Ana Devic, Natasa Ilic, Sabina Sabolovic and Ivet Curlin.

    Join us at UCCA on Wednesday, March 18 from 5 to 7 pm, for a presentation and open discussion with curators Ana Devic and Ivet Curlin about their ongoing practice and the critical framework behind the 2009 Istanbul Biennial.
