Despite much elaboration, the 11th Biennial of Graphic Arts did not change its image. It stayed faithful to its concept of being an overview of the graphic achievements of individual nations but demonstrated that the development of the graphic arts had turned to objecthood, figurality and subject matter, diverging somewhat from testing out structures, novelties and displays of technical virtuosity. A special section called Critic–Artist (in which 18 critics selected 18 artists) was introduced as part of the Biennial even though this new aspect never really took off.
