    The 2nd Jerusalem Biennale for Contemporary Jewish Art (September 24 - November 5) showcased the work of nearly 200 Israeli and international professional artists in 10 exhibitions hosted in seven city-center venues.

    Following the success of the inaugural Jerusalem Biennale in 2013, Biennale2015 continued to explore the places where contemporary art meets the Jewish world of content. Curators and artists with different approaches, spanning the continuum of Jewish identity from secular to ultra-Orthodox and also non-Jewish artists, all came together to give their own interpretation of contemporary Jewish art.
