DISLOCATIONS

Dislocations was an art program of re-contextualization and transmediations that saw the participation of Songul Boyraz, David Cotterrell, Charles Csuri, Mathias Fuchs and Danielle Roney. Their work was exhibited on the Media Facade of the Museum of Contemporary Art, Zagreb and was part of the Official Parallel Program of the 12th Istanbul Biennial. Re-interpretations, misinterpretations and un-related contexts create new modalities of perception

SCREAMS AT GOOGLE

Artistic Squatting is an art exhibition that virtually 'invaded' Google's Headquarters. The exhibition started in 2009 and is still available to be visited on Google's virtual grounds without need for 'permission or forms of identification'. This is what I always liked about contemporary digital media: the virtual impossibility of stopping a process of participation and layering of concepts over the institutionally framed hierarchies.

CURATING POST-HUMANITY?

CURATING POST-HUMANITY? ART IN BETWEEN UTOPIA AND DYSTOPIA ABSTRACT The paper will discuss the vision of a future that has moved from the optimistic approach of the Futurists, in which a technologically based utopian world would represent the panacea to the problems of humanity, to one of a contemporary dystopian vision in which the ‘maimed’ post-human body represent a temporary hybrid response to the cataclysmic

EXPLORATIONS OF STRUCTURE

'Explorations of Structure' by Jane Prophet has been one of those exhibitions that leave more questions unsolved than answered. The layering of meaning and the matrix of contextual references make these artworks worthy of being explored over and over again. For me, after the initial exhibition online, it is a pleasure to see the artworks moving from the 'virtual' gallery into the physical

VISIBLE FROM SPACE

'Visible from Space' by Paul Catanese was the first exhibition I worked on for the LEA Digital Media Platform as senior curator together with Christiane Paul. It has been since the end of 2010 a continuous feature of LEA thanks to the curator, Vince Dziekan. As I put order in my personal archive of curatorial projects, I look fondly upon this collaboration, particularly

SPEED, DROMOLOGY AND INVISIBILITY

Speed, Dromology and Invisibility, Leonardo Electronic Almanac Deadline January 31, 2012 Are we moving from the futurist's speed through contemporary dromology to the disappearance of the human body? What are the future trajectories of a continuous process of acceleration? Is the disappearance of the body through artificial speed a process of invisibility or that of a visibility through acceleration? The instantaneous communication across Web 2.0

THE MEDIA FACADE

The past year saw a range of curatorial activities that I am finally getting around to document and share online. This was an exciting project in itself because of its curatorial structure and challenges. There were two exhibition programs running on the Media Facade of the Museum of Contemporary Art Zagreb. The first was titled Dislocations and the second Geometries of the Sublime.
