The Wrong
David Quiles Guilló
*The Wrong* was born in 2013 as a collaborative effort to create and promote digital art & culture, launching a global art biennale open to participation, happening both online & offline.
*The Wrong Biennale* happens online, offline: Online happens in pavilions—virtual curated spaces in any accessible online media where selected artworks are exhibited. Offline happens in embassies, institutions, art spaces, galleries, and artist run spaces in cities around the world. An extended team of curators appoint themselves to feature what they like best of the new digital art scene today. Artists also appoint themselves via open calls and routers. Since 2013, more than 5,500 artists and curators have officially participated in *The Wrong Biennale*.
“Counting its viewership in the millions, *The Wrong* just might be the world’s largest art biennale—the digital world’s answer to Venice.”
*The New York Times*
The 4th edition bloomed from November 1st, 2019 until March 1st, 2020, featuring +2300 artists +210 curators +150 online pavilions +100 embassies +320 events +120 locations around the world, and all over the internet.
In March 2020, following the end of the 4th edition and in the midst of the Covid19 pandemic outbreak, *The Wrong* announces new biennale editions for November 1st, 2021, November 1st, 2023, and November 1st, 2025—and adds two new strains: *The Wrong Website*—an online website featuring a daily feed of digital art & culture links and *The Wrong TV*—an online tv platform live streaming digital art and culture.
“Anyone interested in the field of digital art ought to pay attention to *The Wrong*.”
Christiane Paul, new media curator for The Whitney Museum of American Art
