George Vantongerloo
“Vantongerloo, who ascribes to the abstract language of form after 1917, applies himself to Abstract Art in order to get control of rules by which he develops an interest in geometrical relationships and algebraic formulas. In addition to his artistic practice, Vantongerloo also writes theoretical work about his research. Primarily after the publication of his pamphlet L’Art et son Avenir in 1924, he creates new impulses for geometric abstraction with his writings. In this way, for example, he subjects three neo-plastic works of Piet Mondriaan (1872 – 1944) to an analysis in the French publication Vouloir. In this way he opens up the way for his own ‘mathematical’ abstraction.” Sergio Servellón

Jungle du Vide
Bai Ailin_VOID JUNGLE est une performance audiovisuelle numérique qui se déroule dans une installation d’éclairage immersive. Les faisceaux lumineux entraînés par le son sont combinés dans une variété de structures lumineuses géométriques grâce à des calculs de programme, combinant le champ sonore numérique et des chants chuchotés écrits par le créateur de musique électronique Han Chengye, donnant au public l’impression d’entrer dans un monde froid et sans fin mais plein. de tension émotionnelle.

From, the Future
The art is about waiting, something the entire world population knows since the onslaught of Covid-19. The title was also inspired by a dream where I told a scientist I was from the future and he believed me. My interpretation of the dream relates to my interest in the luminous thoughts of the 13th-century Persian poet Rumi, he clearly describes what our souls really are, beautiful, sacred, beyond time. I am fascinated by the existential impermanence of beauty. Beauty offers us a deep connection to the experience of life. The animation consists of cut flowers continuously falling from the sky, it can be seen by looking up to the ceiling. The title infers the signature on the note of a gift.

Biométrie
Jego portrety są niezwykle przeszywające – odkrywają ciało człowieka na nowo, a zarazem dają zupełnie nową perspektywę na technikę radiologiczną, która w zastosowaniach medycznych ogranicza się do produkcji czarno-białych obrazów. Prace włoskiego artysty to na przekór tej tradycji feeria barw – jego biologiczną wizją są pokolorowane zdjęcia RTG, które wydają się dużo bliższe ludzkiej energii.

Field of Infinity
Inspired by both Italian Renaissance paintings and contemporary news broadcasts of protests at the border of Gaza with Israel – the work processes human gestures and figures in a landscape into a dark and colorful mix, opening up a series of reflections on the political image, the image of the political, the politics of the image, and the image of the image.

The Bellies
In a very industrialized world, where humans only eat transgenic food, some plates make for surprising dishes… This story is a thought about our epoch, an ironic and critical vision of the food-processing industry. The agribusiness uses the scientific progress to make a profit, to the detriment of the public health. The story finds a place in a world polluted and denatured by experiments, where all men eat only giant snails. In this context, a man explores a giant empty shell which becomes the gate of hell.

transamorem transmortem
Als sie 2004 zusammen mit Lionel Marchetti meine Hilfe bei der Digitalisierung ihrer Archive annahm, entdeckte ich „Transamoren – Transmortem“. Sofort war ich beeindruckt von der majestätischen Anmut dieses sehr langen Frequenzgewirrs, dieser Reihe von scheinbar unveränderlichen Tönen, deren Variationen von feiner Subtilität sind. “Transamoren – Transmorten” ist als eine der radikalsten Kompositionen von Radigue erkennbar, vergleichbar mit dem ersten “Adnos”, dem Werk, das chronologisch auf “Transamoren – Transmortem” folgt. Sehr wenige Transformationen, eine scheinbare formale Trockenheit, die dann durch das physische Spiel der Frequenzen widerlegt wird, wenn die Hörerin ihren Kopf sanft von rechts nach links dreht, oder noch besser, wenn sich die Hörerin langsam durch den Musikraum bewegt. Beim Bewegen durch Zonen mit bestimmten Frequenzen erfährt der Körper des Hörers lokalisierte Zonen mit niedrigen, mittleren und Höhenfrequenzen, die je nach den akustischen Eigenschaften des Raums variieren. Wie Radigue über „Adnos“ schrieb: „Das Verschieben von Steinen im Flussbett beeinflusst nicht den Wasserlauf, sondern verändert die Art und Weise, wie das Wasser fließt.“ Hier finden wir dieselbe meditative Spannung, die eine friedliche Bewegung durch die Räume vorschlägt, die durch die verschiedenen Frequenzen erzeugt werden, aus denen „Transamoren – Transmortem“ besteht.

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.
