Abstract
This thesis explores the intricate relationship between biennial art festivals and rural development, offering a comprehensive analysis of how these cultural events contribute to the socio-economic development of global art exchange. Anchored in the study of biennial culture, with a historical lens on the pioneering Venice Biennale, the research digs into the evolution of biennial events from exclusive art gatherings to transformative cultural phenomena with global outreach and impact. It underscores the role of these festivals in fostering international cultural exchange, enhancing contemporary art visibility, and influencing social and economic landscapes in East Asia.
