Important.
The Wrong is not an art fair nor a nft marketplace; pavilions requesting crypto wallet connections, email sign-ups, pay-per-view routines or downloading intrusive malware to access the artworks will not be accepted.

Refused.
If your pavilion/embassy does not enter The Wrong Biennale, it does not make your proposal or you as curator/artist, unheard or invalid. It merely means that it does not fit the ongoing context of The Wrong.  

Doubts.
Write an email with your questions and doubts and we’ll get back to you as soon as possible.

Disclaimer.
All conditions, guidelines and deadlines may be added, changed and/or updated from now and to the opening of the event, always aiming to improve the organisation of The Wrong Biennale, and the guidance of its community.

Very important.
This is a long journey together, so please be kind, be patient, respect everyone’s work and let’s have a good time.

Welcome to The Wrong.
