NICOLA VERLATO
Никола Верлато
İtalyan ressam Nicola Verlato’nun, pop sürreal akımdan etkilenerek yaptığı eserler görenleri büyülüyor. Özellikle seksüel derinlikler, mistisizm ve güç, resimlerini vurgulayan başlıca soyut ögeler. Sinematik örgülerle hazırladığı tabloların her birinin bir hikayesi, belli bir konsepti var.

Thomas Karsten was born in 1958 in Eisenach and grew up in Leipzig[…] Since 1983 he has worked for journals and magazines such as Stern, Art, Nerve (New York), Capital and others. His first individual publication received the Kodak-Fotobuchpreis in 1988. Thomas Karsten emerged internationally particularly through his previous 18 photo books which are the results of the work on different subjects of nude photography for years.

Túnel
«Tunnel» est une sculpture cinétique, immersive et interactive, composée de 92 portiques qui se désordonnent en fonction de la position et de la masse corporelle de l’interacteur. De nombreux utilisateurs peuvent simultanément entrer et interagir avec la machine. Les interacteurs agissent sur la machine par leur position et leur poids. Un exemple d’interaction est: vous entrez dans le «Tunnel» et vous vous tenez près de l’un des murs latéraux. Dans ce cas, la position relative et la force gravitationnelle de votre corps provoquent des variations de hauteur du sol. Le sol s’incline jusqu’à 5 °, les portiques associés tournent progressivement dans la direction et l’angle correspondants, ce qui propage des mouvements ondulatoires dans toute l’installation. Pour l’observateur extérieur, le mouvement interne ou votre déplacement par rapport à l’installation produit des effets optiques cinétiques.
REIN VOLLENGA
Ephemeral and ethereal
Ephemeral and ethereal, the work of artist Rein Vollenga is particularly notable in his ‘wearable sculpture’. Vollenga’s unique and visceral work is darkly seductive, and his creations have been embraced by many of fashions forward thinkers as they continue to venture into darker, more fetishistic territory that celebrates a deeper, animalistic sexuality and revels in individuality and fragmented identity. Vollenga is a native of Berlin, reflected in the Teutonic avant garde nature that pervades his work, as is a dangerous, slightly sinister and hedonistic sense that harks back to pre-war Berlin’s days of decadence and ‘voluptuous panic’; his creations conjure all the allure of the decadence of a futuristic Ball Masque. Renowned for his wearable art, which takes form in sculptural headwear and accessories, the artist is now gaining the attention and patronage of the fashion industries elite; a more severe and gothic, 21st Century Dali if you will. Chasseur sat down with Rein himself to discuss his work; its origins and nature, and what drives the man behind the masks.

QUBIT AI
In its 25 years of existence, the International Electronic Language Festival (FILE) is an internationally renowned Brazilian project that since 2000 has explored the intersection between art and technology. With more than two decades of history, the festival stands out for fostering exhibition spaces and debate about artistic innovations driven by disruptive and innovative technologies, inviting the public to get involved with experimental forms of art that challenge the boundaries of conventionality. Currently, two of these technologies stand out in the contemporary scenario: the accelerated development of quantum computing and artificial intelligence corroborated by synthetic data.
Quantum computing, an emerging revolution in the technological field, offers a new range of creative possibilities for contemporary artists. This new era allows the exploration of unprecedented frontiers through a new computational format that consists mainly of quantum superposition and entanglement, a new field of exploration for synthetic computer science, as well as for the arts in general; on the other hand, artificial intelligence, fueled by synthetic data, offers artists a new way of making and understanding art, opening up space for new forms, concepts and artistic expressions.
Entitled QUBIT AI, the exhibition delves into this unexplored territory presenting a selection of works of art resulting from the connection between artistic creation and technology, proposing a theoretical reflection on what the interrelationship between quantum computers and synthetic artificial intelligence will be.
Visitors will be invited to experience immersive installations, experimental videos, digital sculptures and other forms of interactive art, which intertwine reality and imagination. The exhibition encourages reflections on the influence of technology on art and contemporary society, while at the same time providing an environment to compare already established technological arts (analog and digital) with the possible futures of art in the synthetic era, enhanced by quantum computing. The QUBIT AI exhibition at FILE SP 2024 transcends the mere presentation of works of art; it is a journey to the limits of human creativity, driven by the convergence of art, science and technology.

Kartepe 30.Meridien Landmark
30.Meridien is located on the North side of the Istanbul-Adapazari D-100 Road and it will become the key Landmark for the development of the Kartepe Region. All the visitors approaching the site from all other cities to the region for skiing or visiting the Sapanca Lake will experience the amazing Vista so it will turn into an attraction point for the developing prestige of the Kartepe. The design concept for Landmark is like the dance of two eliptical steel rings which are balanced with the cables located in between them. This fluid interaction gives various visual perspectives to the structural Landmark design. 30M with its fluid form and its well integrated landscape design will attract the visitors not only to the site also inside the landmark. When the visitors are standing under the center of the 20m high Meridien Structure, they will experience the elevated 30.Meridien.

Your Body Of Work
Transparent sheets of coloured plastic – in either cyan, magenta, or yellow – are suspended from the ceiling to form a maze. Additional colours appear where these hues visually overlap, forming spontaneous compositions that continually change in response to viewers’ movement through the space. ‘Seu corpo da obra’ was inspired by the work of Brazilian artist Hélio Oiticica (1937–1980).

ЛОС-КАРПИНТЕРОС
Los Carpinteiros é um coletivo fundado em 1991 pelos artistas Marco Antonio Castillo Valdes (1971), Dagoberto Rodríguez Sánchez (1969) e Alexandre Jesús Arrechea Zambrano (1970), sendo que o último fez parte do grupo até 2003. Realiza desenhos, esculturas e instalações e discute temas relacionados à arquitetura, ao design e à política, aproximando constantemente arte e sociedade e construindo seus trabalhos de forma inusitada e muitas vezes com humor.

道格·艾特肯
Desde los años 90, Doug Aitken (Redondo Beach, EUA, 1968; vive en Los Ángeles, EUA) desarrolla una serie de películas, fotografías, instalaciones y vídeos que investigan la relación entre naturaleza, memoria, tiempo y espacio. Su obra habla de lugares inhabitables, ruinas, vestigios donde el tiempo parece tener otro ritmo. El artista ha concentrado buena parte de su investigación reciente en las instalaciones con vídeos y en sus filmes, aunque la preocupación por el espacio arquitectónico siempre esté presente en los trabajos.
