Project</EM>
2010<BR>----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------</P>
<P>Dear Share Festival friends,</P>
<P>this year, alongside the Share Prize, which we have already mentioned, the
festival will be featuring the thematic exhibition <STRONG>Sm_Art
Mistakes</STRONG> and the<STRONG> Special Project 2010<EM> R.I.O.T. – Reality Is
Out There</EM></STRONG> by <STRONG>Les Liens Invisibles</STRONG>, both curated
by Simona Lodi and on show at the Regional Museum of Natural Science.</P>
<P>The title of this year's Share Festival and the thematic exhibition is Sm_Art
Mistakes – an oxymoron, the encounter or collision of two diametrically opposed
concepts, which encapsulates the role of mistakes in cultural processes. It is
error that ultimately stimulates creativity – because perfection leaves no room
for improvement. Error has truly unique creative power, as it represents the
emergence of a problem. Whether technological, biological or tied up with chance
discovery, mistakes are pointers to what requires attention, which in turn
elicits controversy, while it is controversy that generates solutions and
innovation.<BR>The exhibition <STRONG>Sm_Art Mistakes</STRONG> presents a
selection of art works and events that fall within this vast topic of enquiry.
The exhibition is divided into three areas of dysfunction, broadening our minds
and focusing our attention on the relationship between humans and machines, on
technological and natural errors, and on chance, unexpected discovery. Within
this conceptual framework, recent works were selected by artists that use
innovative languages, representing art in today's digital and global age. It is
the fine line between error, mistake and strokes of genius that should inspire
us. <BR>The following artists will be featured in the exhibition:
<STRONG>0100101110101101.org, Alterazioni Video, Cory Arcangel, Michele Bazzana,
Harm van den Dorpel, Dextro, JoDi, Lia, Miguel Carvalhais, Alison Mealey, Rosa
Menkman, Nullsleep, Ant Scott, Mark Shepard </STRONG>and<STRONG>
Stelarc</STRONG>.</P>
<P><STRONG>Les Liens Invisibles </STRONG>accepted this year's invitation to
prepare the <STRONG>Special Project 2010</STRONG> with their usual creative
cheekiness, producing a work specially designed for the 6th Share
Festival.<BR>The meaning of the work lies in its title <EM>R.I.O.T. – Reality Is
Out There</EM>. This time round it is augmented reality that is in the artists’
sights, or rather that which <STRONG>augmented reality</STRONG> promises.<BR>The
city of Turin has been invaded by imaginary installations that will take up
their posts in key spots around town. Visitors are invited to go out and track
down the virtual sculptures, visible only through a reality browser, available
for the most widely used smartphone platforms (iPhone and Android). <BR>The game
is essentially a <STRONG>digital hunt</STRONG> around town with the aim
of<STRONG> reclaiming public space</STRONG>, played out on the streets, in the
squares and around monuments and buildings.</P>
