The Second Biennial of Art in Corbera d'Ebre wants to follow the same philosophy that originally led the City Council and the Associació del Poble Vell (Old Town) de Corbera d'Ebre to bring about the First Biennial in 2009, which was to raise awareness of Poble Vell de Corbera d'Ebre through Culture. At the same time, it is intended to be a space for reflection and a tool for the dissemination of Human Rights, and to show through art, the different trends in contemporary artistic creation.

For this Second Biennial, the exhibition space of the old town has been expanded with the addition of two new areas: the church of Sant Pere, remodeled as a cultural center, in which most of the works and activities related to Human Rights will be concentrated, and a restored house which will host one of the exhibitions.
