Rohrwerk
Названный в честь немецкого слова «трубы» (Rohre), Rohrwerk действительно производит впечатление футуристического органа. Он состоит из семи новых «дудок обратной связи» разных размеров, а также «мультитромбона» и других инструментов, изготовленных на заказ. Трубы, подвешенные над землей с помощью крана, сгруппированы вместе и сужаются к точке. Издалека инсталляция производит впечатление возвышающегося перевернутого карандаша.

Despertar
Reawaken é uma escultura cinética com 55 braços robóticos, movidos por 55 servo motores. O abaixamento dos braços provoca uma impressão abstrata no papel. A tecnologia reflete a humanidade e vice-versa. Além de criar beleza, a tecnologia existe para atender às nossas necessidades. Nós, e nossas necessidades, evoluímos a um ponto em que estamos tão integrados que consumimos tecnologia no piloto automático. Vivemos em uma época de produção em massa em que nossos dispositivos diários cada vez mais se imitam. Um smartphone é um pequeno tablet, um tablet é um pequeno computador e um computador é uma pequena televisão. A questão do que isso faz com nossa imaginação, junto com o progresso tecnológico cada vez mais invisível, como algoritmos e inteligência artificial, foram meu ponto de partida para o Reawaken.

Echoes
Marguerite Humeau’s design is used to explore the means by which knowledge is generated in the absence of evidence, or in the impossibility of either reaching or analysing the object of investigation. Humeau weaves factual events into speculative narratives, therefore enabling the unknown to erupt in grandiose splendour. The work is presented as a series of live science fictions: semi-real, synthetic, supernatural events.
Adam Martinakis
Ses œuvres me semblent trop interconnectées, elles se concentrent principalement sur les thèmes du corps, son rapport avec la vie, la mort et la sexualité à l’ère numérique. Générées par ordinateur, ces sculptures numériques ont un caractère photoréaliste et surréaliste, qui selon lui est «un mélange de futurisme post-fantastique et de symbolisme abstrait». Bárbara Anjos

Martelaren
Martelaren (Earth, Air, Fire, Water) bestaat uit vier plasmaschermen, elk met een enkele figuur die geleidelijk wordt overweldigd door de aanval van een natuurlijke kracht. De ervaringen van de vier individuen worden samen georkestreerd tot een samenhangend geheel. Het overheersende thema is martelaarschap voor diepgewortelde overtuigingen, waarbij het fysieke lijden van het lichaam op dramatische wijze duidelijk wordt gemaakt door de kardinale elementen.

Picture for Women
Dans Picture for Women, nous voyons trois entités principales distinctes, mais entrelacées – une femme, un appareil photo et un homme. On suppose que la femme est le modèle et que l’homme est le photographe qui prend la photo, suggéré par sa main serrant le câble de déclenchement de l’appareil photo. Le premier est positionné à gauche de l’image, le second à droite, tandis que l’appareil photo est au centre.

LI HUI : V
Живущий в Пекине пионер мультимедиа, Ли Хуэй зарекомендовал себя как один из ключевых представителей нового поколения молодых китайских художников, и его новаторские инсталляции узнаваемы во всем мире. Одна из его самых впечатляющих работ на сегодняшний день, V (2009), раскрывает его увлечение светом и его влиянием на окружающую среду. Работа представляет собой столкновение энергий и исследует симметрию и асимметрию, материальность и духовность, технологии и человечность. Масштабная инсталляция займет целую галерею, обеспечивая посетителям захватывающий опыт.

Walden Note Money
The project imagines a payment system that challenges the established monetary function of ‘a store of value.’ Creating a new method of exchange that encourages people to actively destroy their money during a transaction. The process positively reinforces this behaviour through the creation of music, produced from the burning money within the transaction machine.
John Adams
Opera A Flowering Tree
A Flowering Tree was inspired by Mozart’s The Magic Flute, and is based on an ancient folktale from India, telling the story of Kumudha, a poor but beautiful girl, who in order to help her family transforms into a flowering tree, whose blossoms bring her both joy and pain, love and redemption.

Apollo
Victor Pasmore’s ‘Apollo’ Pavilion sits at the heart of the Sunny Blunts estate in Peterlee[…] Four large orange forms intersect the pavilion at right angles to the main orientation and appear to slice through the pavilion. The blocks are drawn from the geometry of the pavilion and a nod to the remote object planes of Victor Pasmore’s work. The inflatable textiles blocks create a juxtaposition between the angular grey concrete of the pavilion and the soft, rounded, colourful forms of the installation. The intervention is deliberately bold with a strong visual aesthetic to temporarily transform the pavilion. The piece is also, on the surface, playful, tactile and accessible – encouraging the audience to look at the pavilion with fresh eyes.
Ian Cheng
“Entropy Wrangler,” Ian Cheng’s 2013 exhibition at Off Vendome in Dusseldorf, was an excellent introduction to the logic behind this artist’s practice. The centerpiece was a large projection in the gallery’s basement described as “a live computer simulation that changes and evolves, forever.” Like all of Cheng’s simulations, it was programmed with motion capture techniques that register the physical movements of performers that are then translated onto digital bodies. These bodies coexist as individual entities subject to the laws and dynamics of a causal, virtual world: avatars of people and common objects, like hammers and basketball players, rendered in basic three-dimensional form and caught in the zero gravity of the digital screen

The Irresistible Powers of Silent Talking
The Irresistible Powers of Silent Talking – это установка, исследующая автоматизированные системы распознавания обмана и их использование для наблюдения за границей. Он основан на алгоритме iBorderCtrl, который был разработан для сканирования микровыражений лиц мигрантов, въезжающих в ЕС. После того, как виртуальный аватар впервые дал интервью человеку, iBorderCtrl определяет уровень его правдивости, используя нераскрытый набор критериев. По сути, он принимает решения на основе алгоритмических предположений об истине или обмане.
FREUDENTHAL AND VERHAGEN
Dutch collaborators Carmen Freudenthal (photographer) and Elle Verhagen (stylist) have been working together since 1989. Their collaboration with fashion designers, performers and other artists results in a wide variety of work, which is always recognizable for its humorous approach of daily life and its use (and abuse) of contemporary imagery and (photo)graphic techniques.

stalker
In the distant future, the protagonist (Alexander Kaidanovsky) works in an unnamed location as a “Stalker” who leads people through the “Zone“, an area in which the normal laws of reality do not apply and remnants of seemingly extraterrestrial activity lie undisturbed among its ruins. The Zone contains a place called the “Room“, said to grant the wishes of anyone who steps inside. The area containing the Zone is shrouded in secrecy, sealed off by the government and surrounded by ominous hazards.
