About the B3 Biennial of the Moving Image

Initially held every two years, B3 welcomes national and international artists and media professionals annually since 2019. Controversial and multi-layered, creative artists are speaking at the B3 conference and present their works in screenings and exhibitions. The focus is on narration and storytelling. Every year, the invitees at B3 provide an insight and outlook on the ways in which ideas and stories can be creatively developed in terms of content and technology. In their work they process their content in the most diverse ways – politically, socially critical, philosophically or humorously.

B3 will take place from October 15 to 23, 2022, and this year marks its tenth anniversary.

The organizer of the B3 Biennial of the Moving Image is the Hessen State University of Art and Design, Offenbach. The sponsor of B3 is the Hessian Ministry of Higher Education, Research, Science and the Arts. Sponsors and partners are the Kulturfonds Frankfurt RheinMain, the Wirtschaftsförderung Frankfurt as well as Sylvia and Friedrich von Metzler. Strategic partners of B3 are the Frankfurt Book Fair, THE ARTS+, Film London and many more. Central event partners are the ASTOR Film Lounge MyZeil, Satis&Fy and others.
