WRO 2013: Pioneering Values—the 15th WRO Biennale—is taking place during the 50th anniversary of electronic art, and it focusses on the artistic and cultural values that new media art has given rise to. In addition to presentations of works selected from over 1500 submissions from around the world as well as by specially invited artists, the WRO 2013 Biennale will also feature retrospectives of the work of outstanding media art pioneers who have shaped the evolution of artistic expression using new technologies.

The WRO Pioneering Values starts on May 8th with the openings of exhibitions, performances, screenings and concerts at ca. 15 sites, including the WRO Art Center, National Museum, Ballestrem Palace, White Stork Synagogue, Entropia Gallery, DCF Film Center, New Horizons Cinema and several other locations throughout the city of Wrocław, Poland.
