Zichtbaarheid en onzichtbaarheid. Dit jaar ligt de focus van het ARTEFACT festival op kunstenaars die rond deze spanningsvelden werken. Wanneer worden dingen onzichtbaar, of waar verschijnen ze?De confrontatie met de blik van de kijker staat centraal. Het STUK wordt gevuld met 'lege', maar zeer potentiële ruimtes, beelden en constructies waarbij de kunstwerken vaak lijken terug te kijken. Spiegels en virtuele spiegels duiken overal op. Licht verrast in het donker. Zie of zie niet, maar kom en kijk... Tijdens het ARTEFACT festival wordt doorheen het hele STUK gebouw een veelzijdige en experimentele programmatie gepresenteerd. Het internationale programma focust zich bewust niet op nieuwe technologieën an sich maar tracht eerder thematische lijnen en onderzoeksgebieden uit het nieuwe media veld te plaatsen in een ruimer, vele disciplines omvattend kader.

[spectre] IDEOLOGY of the IMAGINARY in the 21st century
The EXPERIMENTAL ART FOUNDATION in association with the 2007 Adelaide Film Festival presents IDEOLOGY of the IMAGINARY in the 21st century a symposium and exhibition project exploring cross issues of art, culture and new media. 1st and 2nd MARCH 10am - 4pm at the MERCURY CINEMA Lion Arts Centre, North Tce, Adelaide ADMISSION FREE. LIMITED SEATING. PLEASE REGISTER Email your name, address, and how many attending to mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED][EMAIL PROTECTED] Full Program details http://www.eaf.asn.au/2007/symposium.htmlhttp://www.eaf.asn.au/2007/symposium.html BRIEF Despite the numerous tech-specific, or future looking events, appearing daily on the world stage, it is worth noting that we are almost at the end of the first decade of this century, and yet the discourses which we are using are quite old - postmodern at its best! The Symposium is therefore aimed at defining the concepts and processes characteristic for the beginning of the 21st century. Some of the themes the speakers are urged to visit: What are the decisive theoretical and practical developments of this decade? How has the ideological framework of images shifted in the 21st Century? How can we measure the real power of these images? Are some aesthetic categories or concepts of the late 20th century already obsolete? Are there new categories appearing on the horizon Bio-technology and other wireless, or less so, technologies are offering themselves to us quite openly, but perhaps more important are the hidden, underlying processes in our society, which we seem to constantly neglect.
