In an era where sexual images become abusive, our exhibition wants to be
a space-time where you can confront yourself on artistic material,
without false moralism.
The representation of Eros in ex libris
and in artist's books is an intellectual game, an act of liberation, a
dreamlike or ironic representation, a declaration of intentions or a
confession.
On the opening night there will be the poetic
intervention EROS Y VERSOS poetry reading by Salvatore Di Natale with
the chorus of "dark voices".

PERFORMING ACTS ON PHOTOGRAPHY May 19 - August 26. 2012
The Unknown Artist Virtual Museum, in partnership with the Fonlad
Festival present the on line show “Performing Acts on Photography), a
photographic show centered on the relation between new technologies, art
and the body.
Fotografia Photography
Adrian Lis (Roménia Romania), Aristotelis Triantis (Grécia Greece),
Benvinda Araújo (Portugal), Draga Jovanivic (Canadá Canada), Eva Lewarne
(Polónia Poland), Francesca Fini (Itália Italy), Khalil Charif (Brasil

The multidisciplinary performing arts are continuously instigated by
new technologies. If the body were originally the relationship with the
public and the unexpected major components of performative action, with
time became constant the embodiment in every work of art - including
photography. However, the characteristic ambiguity of photography, this
is not expressed in a single form of performance art. In this context,
we can identify four types of events: the documental, the creation of a
photographic subject as a result of a performative action, the
performance in portrait photography and the application of the concept
of everyday performative photography as an object.
Over
fifty artists representing fifteen different countries for a total of
over one hundred and twenty works on display will be visible in three
different locations. These are the numbers of the third edition of
AMBIENTARTE, this year curated by Massimo Nicotra.
The exhibition, which fits in the “Med Yacth Festival”,
kicks off April 21, 2012, is organized by “Association 900”, “cgroups,”
Municipal Art Gallery di Gaeta“. We exhibit artists from countries
around the Mediterranean such as Albania, Greece, Palestine, Syria and
Turkey Iseaele just to name a few. The artists will discuss on the topic
of water intended as a union but also of unity among peoples, the
liquid mass that can serve simultaneously as a glue separation factor.
The exhibition not only within the Med Yacht festival venues will have
as the Art Gallery and the headquarters of the 900, cha will be the
backdrop for paintings, installations, sculptures and video art products
that are compared to demonstrate that culture is unique. The exhibition
is sponsored by the city of Gaeta, Lazio Region, "Med Yacht Festival.”,
Municipal Gallery of Contemporary Art “John of Gaeta.”
Curator: Keith A. Buchholz. Local producer: Vėjūnė Sudarytė. Initiator: Ed Carroll.
As part of the USA Government’s culture week in Lithuania, Kaunas
Biennial marks the 50th anniversary of the 1st Happenings of George
Maciunas in New York. A group of 220 contemporary Fluxus artists mark
his unique contribution to contemporary art practice. Location: Kaunas
City Trolleybus with performances by Leard Reed Altemus III, Melissa
Rose McCarthy and Mary Campbell (USA).
In the time it took to organize this show, major shifts occurred –
shifts in location, works to be shown, participants, activities, and
ideas of what Fluxus was, is , and could be. A call for works was put
out to the “Eternal Network” of Artists, Non-Artists, Poets, Flux
people, and Friends to interpret the idea of Fluxus, and in doing so,
honor the legacy of George Maciunas, the founder of Fluxus, who was born
in Kaunas and emigrated with his family to the United States.
The premise for the show was simple – interpret the concept as you
like, using the idea of Textile as a point of departure. Both Flux
people and Mail Artists share the inherent love of found materials, and
alternative processes. Works range from Found and altered objects, to
postcards, boxes, digital images, film, publications, poetry, E-mail,
and performance scores. The works often have some handmade quality, and
in the process of curating the show, nothing is edited. Some unwritten
rules of the network are: “Show everything that you receive” and “All
artists are given equal billing”. As you explore this exhibition, feel
free to handle the objects, open and close the boxes, and interact with
the works. Fluxus works are tactile works – Meant to Communicate and
Inform.
When Fluxus started, roughly 50 years ago this year, Maciunas brought
together a wide variety of artists who were working outside the
boundaries of what was seen as art by the general public. In Al Hansen’s
“On Fluxus” (which has been republished in a pamphlet form as part of
this exhibition), he states that “Fluxus rejected what was felt to
matter in the New York and European art machinery.” In many ways it
still does.
Recent institutional interest in Fluxus has changed some things, as
the cheaply made multiples (intended to derail the value of art) have
become fetishized. Values of early Fluxus works have risen dramatically,
and an expanding crop of Curators and Collectors have enshrined works
made during Maciunas’ lifetime, drawing and end date on Fluxus at 1978
with George’s death. With most Movements in art this would be easy, but
Fluxus, a fluctuating group of international artists, has never
considered itself a “Movement”. Artists have continually been drawn to
Fluxus, and have taken up its banner since the exit of its chairman,
sometimes with the blessing of its early participants, sometimes bravely
on their own, building networks that eventually interweave with others
to form the broad spectrum seen in this exhibition. It can be guaranteed
that no matter how remote, these artists, by minimal degrees of
separation, can draw a path back, directly to George.
In the words of Dick Higgins, a member of that first circle of
George’s, “Fluxus has a life of its own, apart from the old people in
it. It is simple things, taking things for themselves and not just as
part of bigger things. It is something that many of us must do, at least
part of the time. So Fluxus is inside you, is part of how you are. It
isn’t just a bunch of things and dramas, but is part of how you live. It
is beyond words.” George’s gift for organizing and developing such a
network, which has been described as “An Attitude”, “Way of Life”, and
“An extended family”, is bigger than anything a date or label can
contain. We salute George best by continuing on this path. Ben Vautier
may have said it best, “Fluxus Never Stops!”
