A selection of generative art and glitch art works, audio and video. Rino Petrozziello is an Italian multimedia artist and creative technologist. Rino says: "My works show a strong versatility thanks to the simultaneous use of several artistic languages ​​such as music, video, electronics and human computer interaction. Expressiveness, DIY attitude and innate passion for creating experimental artefacts come to light through the development of apps, music software and hardware, multimedia installations, websites and audio-visual performances."

KOONSTHALLE
REAL VISUAL LUXURY



Co-curated by Domenico Barra and Karina Pálosi

Co-hosted by Unstable.Media's WPG and Altered_Data's WPG

"As an artist, I've always wanted to participate in the dialogue of art with other artists." Jeff Koons

"Here we come, Jeff!" The Other Artists.

This is the the first co-hosted and co-curated show made in White Page Gallery/s.

The Koonsthalle - Real Visual Luxury is not a tribute, neither a celebration, of Jeff Koons and his works.

First of all, the show is an invitation to open a dialogue about the state of the art of the contemporary art world. A world going through a massive update totally influenced by the rise of digital media, above them all the internet, and the cultures springing and spreading from this shape-shifting scenario. A new context where we, digital and new media artists, are a big part of, influencing it with our works, practices, languages, aesthetics. Things are moving on. It is a slow process but it is happening. Digital and new media artists are important and relevant voices in the discourse of contemporary art. Jeff Koons can be seen as the metaphor of the rise and fall of the status quo of contemporary art that, like it or not, has influenced us some how. As stated by Jeff Koons, he always wanted to participate in the dialogue of art with other artists. We are the other artists. Who better than us? The digital artists. The Koonsthalle will then also be a show about contemporary art from a perspective of digital artists working, learning, making in the context of the world wide web. This online exhibition wishes also to be a testimony of the many changements of the art world and the cultures related to art. We are moving towards a new era where the word contemporary itself is assuming a new meaning.

The Koonsthalle is a show. It is a process. It is happening! And it is happening online on the White Page Gallery/s hosted by Unstable.Media's WPG & Altered_Data's WPG.

Hosted by Altered_Data's WPG - ALICJA WROBLEWSKA - ANDREA PEDRAZZI - FAEZEH HEYDARI - FLORIAN KUHLMANN - HIROTSUGU AISU - INARI PORKKA - NOEMI CAPOCCIA - RENDERFRUIT - SIMONE CISARNI Hosted by Unstable.Media's WPG - AGNESE TONI - AKASHA - ALBERTO CUTERI - BORJAN ZAREVSKI - DOM BARRA - FOREVERMIDI.COM - IAN KEAVENY - JAWEK KWAKMAN - JOSE IRION NIETO - LAURA KARAM - MARIA CHIARA GAGLIARDI - http://thereisamajorprobleminaustralia.com/ - RONNIE S - SYSTAIME

Machine Renaissance
Digitonica



Digitonica about her works. “I have been making digital 3d art for about a year, and my new wish is to make digital collages based on my materials using my own art and photos. I always test new techniques. I am often inspired by old masters, one of my favorite is Hieronymus Bosch. I have some works in which I try to rethink historical pieces. It can be Renaissance (Machine Renaissance) or middle ages or even god theme (Cyber God). Also, I am really into Japanese art and I think that my own art is some kind of symbiosis of ancient art, Japanese madness and modern aesthetics in an ironic way. In music and in art I try to deconstruct familiar forms to rebuild them into something new. I also work with glitches because it makes some weird and wonderful transformations, helping us to see some objects in completely new ways. So my art is just a game, I play with different forms of the past, future and present and mix it. I don't want to show just "brave new world", cold, blue and refined, full of white buildings and white robots.”

composition 731872
Rudy Paganini (forevermidi.com)



An original SNES’ rom image had been deeply modified in its code and lead close to the point of non-executability, resulting eventually into a pure glitch generator. Creating abstract patterns endlessly, the program rushes in a romantic streben toward the infinite, beyond computations. Any form of audio or game logic had been lost in the process. The modified software went then executed through a console emulator, the video output recorded for the length of this video; no post editing alterations went applied, apart from a slight dimension resizing. Videogames’ modification is a practice adopted by digital artists and, for the most, gamers. On the art side, seminal is the work upon a Nintendo cartridge made by Cory Arcangel & Paper Rad for their Super Mario Movie (2005). Gamers too use to corrupt or modify roms to obtain almost unpredictable visual effects, and to experiment with playability.
