AKATRE

Criativo, surreal, por vezes pretensioso e sempre bizarro, estas são algumas das mais relativas características que percebi no trabalho fotografista do francês Akatre. De tendências tão diretas quanto bem humoradas, a técnica de captação de imagens e situações empregada por Akatre misturam-se harmoniosamente entre a simplicidade e a criatividade, estas inerentes à imaginação do fotógrafo, artista plástico e web designer. Com um web site tão inovador em apresentação quanto a proposta do foto ensaio aqui em divulgação, Akatre firmou-se na comunidade artística européia como um ícone em vanguardismo. Sempre presente nos mais influentes meios de divulgação de artes, o francês se faz constante com propostas contemporâneas acondicionadas ao propor à quebra de rotinas e paradigmas de senso comum.

RHIZOMATIKS RESEARCH ELEVENPLAY KYLE MCDONALD

Figure Discrete
Esecutori umani incontrano corpi generati dal computer, visualizzazioni calcolate del movimento incontrano droni svolazzanti! L’intelligenza artificiale e le macchine di autoapprendimento fanno apparire questa tavolozza inedita di progetti di movimento, progetti che trascendono di gran lunga i confini dell’articolazione umana, consentendo uno sguardo profondo nel mondo astratto dell’elaborazione dei dati. Il team di Rhizomatiks Research, guidato dall’artista, programmatore, designer dell’interazione e DJ giapponese Daito Manabe, riunisce il potere collettivo con un numero di esperti, tra cui i cinque ballerini ELEVENPLAY del coreografo MIKIKO e dell’artista di programmazione Kyle McDonald. Il risultato è un’immagine mozzafiato, realizzata magnificamente, insomma: visivamente sbalorditiva.

Claudio Correa

Libertad, Igualdad, Fatalidad
La muestra Libertad, Igualdad, Fatalidad, con curatoría del historiador del arte Sebastián Vidal, resignifica el ideario de la Revolución Francesa por medio de versiones adaptadas del clásico himno La Marsellesa, para traernos a la época actual y evidenciar el estado de la crisis migratoria. La instalación reproduce a escala un barco similar al de los primeros inmigrantes que llegaron a Chile en el siglo XIX; colonos europeos en su mayoría, quienes poblaron principalmente el sur del país, protegidos por planes estatales de emprendimiento, modernización y transformación cultural y racial.

Canopy
参观者使用自行车驱动的发电机为自己的体验提供动力。当他们踩踏板时,
参与者共同改造了他们之间的霓虹色雕塑林。这些充气形式随着骑车人的动量不断变化。像物一样的片场一起比赛会膨胀、放气、照亮和变暗。这是我们与 Can-duit 公司的第一次合作。

Spiritus Sonata

Spiritus Sonata is an artistic representation of animism. ‘Spiritus’ is variously translated from Latin, Hebrew and Greek to mean breath or ‘spirit sense’. With this theoretical combination of breath, spirit, animating the inanimate and investing our characters with digital souls, we aim to engender positive emotion in our audience.
By embedding echoes of childhood play in this installation and linking them to animism we hope to inspire reflection in participants. The same air used to inflate the structures is used to create sounds from their nose extensions, an instrument that operates like an old church pipe organ, another subtle link to worship as well as being a joyful, playful feature.

TERRY RILEY

A Rainbow in Curved Air
Using overdubbing, Riley plays all the instruments on the title track: electric organ, 2 electric harpsichords (a Baldwin electric harpsichord & a RMI Rock-Si-Chord), dumbec, and tambourine. The piece moves through several sections; following the opening theme and introduction of “placid chords,” Riley introduces “an explosion, a procession of right-hand lines that flutter and pirouette over the over the pulsing rhythmic patterns.”

“While marketing drives demand and justifies the over-production of consumer electronics, I create sculptural landscapes and video installations from the circuit boards left behind in the wake of obsolescence. The majority of this material would be in landfills or contaminating our ecosystem from the recycling of precious metals and other natural resources.”

PETRA CORTRIGHT

Poor traits
Petra refere na sua maioria a natureza física da experiência de computação em relação com o ser humano, como por exemplo em “Webcam”, um dos seus primeiros projetos, a artista se filma a si mesma através da webcam refletindo a atividade de observação de vídeos online. Nele, Petra surge como uma personagem que questiona todo o processo físico de estar sentado em frente ao monitor, tornando-se num consumidor assíduo de YouTube.

No Longer Silent

Robert Battle’s dramatic ensemble work No Longer Silent, set to Erwin Schulhoff’s percussive score “Ogelala,” features dancers evoking a complex and mysterious ritual. Originally created in 2007 for The Juilliard School, Battle’s alma mater, the work was part of a concert of choreography that brought to life long-forgotten scores by composers whose work the Nazis had banned. Powerful phrases stir the imagination with images of flight and fatigue, chaos and unity, and collectivity and individualism as dancers, clad in all black, travel in military rows.
