From October 11 to January 6 The PAC in Milan will host a wide panoramic dedicated to “ArtCinema”: "Glitch", by Davide Giannella
It’s increasingly impossible for us to live without computers, but we are evolving ways to inject our human qualities into the digital space.
There is a lively thread of humanism appearing online – romantic, quirky, emotional and expressive images and text are flooding the web.
The practices, methods and technology of the internet are moving into the physical exhibition space. Painters, sculptors and designers produce a new kind of highly textured and poetic expressionism.
Over the last fifteen years the digital transition, the large-scale sharing of dramatic images and the birth of youtube.com, contributed to wide the evolving marginal land, the slit between nearby territories yet still distincted: art and cinema.
From October 11 to January 6 The PAC in Milan will host the widest panoramic dedicated to “ArtCinema”: “Glitch“, by Davide Giannella.
The title is a lended term from electronics slang: glitch is a distortion, an unexpected interference within an audio or video playback, short and sudden wave that lasts just a while and then stabilizes.
The exhibition will be divided in three areas: cinematographic, performative and installations.
The exhibition was conceived through the use of storytelling, the refraction between linear and non-linear narrative, truth and fiction, but also research about the act of looking and assembling stories: these are the basic elements of cinema and recent art plots, essential tools in creating myths and imaginary through different languages.
The exhibition will host artists such as Francesco Vezzoli, Rä di Martino, Yuri Ancarani, Marinella Senatore, De Serio, Invernomuto, and Alterazioni Video collective.
