Resum:
The research analyzes a triple component of the Art Biennials focusing on three distinct, but interrelated, areas: The art-historical, the sociological and the educational aspects. In the historicist component of the visual arts, for the first time a comprehensive analysis of the artistic production is performed, reviewing the biennial editions, the work and evolution of the participating artists and the impact of their work, with specific attention to the winners of these biennial competitions. The sociological component analyzes the participation in the call of the competition, the impact it has had on the cultural environment of the respective cities, whether it has contributed to the creation of favourable contexts and, finally, the social impact of media coverage in the press. The didactic component analyzes the relationship between education and art throughout the history of art education, at different educational levels and focused on the province of Tarragona, centred on the case study biennal of the Museu d'Art Modern de Tarragona. Keywords: biennial, social sciences, art education, Tarragona, museum, contemporary art.
