We continue to follow, week by week, what artists and students are developing for the BNL Media Art Festival. Twelve artists are working with students in 12 schools in Naples, Rome and Milan. The aim is to help students develop a new understanding of art and technology, strategic competitive skills and new professional profiles.
Today’s Labs
2.00 – 4.00 pm
Eva Tennina and Ryan will be at the Rome Liceo Mamiani to develop a work in stop motion. The students’ project will flow as snips of reality in movement.
2.30 – 4.30 pm
Dehors and Audela will be at the Rome IIS Cattaneo di Roma for Project “Perfor(m)are il quotidiano,” a workshop on scenic presence during which the students and artist will design and develop a live performance.
3.00 – 5.00 pm
Paolo Gatti and Francesco Bianco will be at the IIS Sandro Pertini School in Genzano (Rome) to develop a live performance, an interactive sound installation.
The appointment with the Media Art Festival original event-project format, which will be held on April 13-17, 2016 at the MAXXI Museum, will feature lectures, installations and conferences with international experts, as well as didactic and educational tracks for students of all ages. The Media Art Festival is an absolute novelty for the Italian artistic panorama, a true, networked laboratory to entice the younger generation to the active, creative and innovative use of technology. Following on the heels of the successful pilot edition, two new partners have joined the initiative developed by the Fondazione Mondo Digitale: BNL Gruppo BNP Paribas and the Rome Fondazione MAXXI.
