The D'Ars Studio presents
XXV Oscar Signorini Prize - Robotic Art
curated by Cristina Trivellin and Martina Coletti
Proclamation of the winner and exhibition of the selected projects
Tuesday December 16, 2008, 18:00-23:00 CET
Via Sant'Agnese 12/8, Milan
The Prize was established in 1884 in memory of the D'Ars founder, Oscar
Signorini (1910-1980), and every year is dedicated to young artists (under
35).
This XXV edition of the Prize is focused on robotic art, that is the use of
robotic technologies in the arts. The Prize yearly proposes a competition
aimed at understanding and spreading topics which are strictly connected to
the contemporary culture and society.
The Prize aims at raising a reflection on contemporary topics through the
main viewpoint of contemporary arts, in their newest, most emblematic and
international forms. This is the reason why the Oscar Signorini Prize on
robotic art has an international jury with renowned theoreticians and
artists, who indicated two young artists each. The jurors are Pier Luigi
Capucci, Eduardo Kac, Riccardo Notte, Luigi Pagliarini, Laura Sansavini,
Pavel Smetana and Franco Torriani.
The selected artists are: Adelin Schweitzer (France), Paula Gaetano
(Argentina), Haakon Faste (USA), Shih-Chieh Huang (Taiwan), Niklas Roy
(Germany), Ximo Lizana (Spain), Garnet Hertz (Canada), Nemo Gould (USA),
Ulrich Emanuel Andel e Christian Gutzers (Germany).
The exhibition of the three first projects (renderings and illustrations of
the works) will take place on Tuesday December 16 at 19 CET in the D'Ars
Studio, and by that date the name of the winner will be communicated. The
winner will also have a solo exhibition at the D'Ars Studio in 2009.
The exhibition of the three first projects will also be the chance to
hommage a pioneer of the robotic art in Italy, Luigi Pagliarini, who will
show an essay of his work. The exhibition will be open until Monday December
22 2008.
Timing: Monday to Thursday 15:30 to 19:00; Friday 17:00 to 19:00. Saturday
and Sunday closed.
