    The Nomadic Show.

The biennale is constructed around two poles:
the residence and the "nomadic show".

During one to two weeks, the artists stay in the village and create their works there.
A programm is running all along: projections, work presentations, collateral events in the nearest city, Samara.

At the end of their stay, they co-organize the "nomadic show", consisting in a one-day excursion through the village.
The audience would arrive by boat in the morning and go from one artwork to the other, till the end of the afternoon and the departure of their boat.
