Robots and Avatars Exhibition- Selected Projects

SELECTED PROJECTS from the Call for Development Commissions and Exhibits

We are very glad to announce that the following works and projects have been chosen by the Jury to be part of Robots and Avatars. Please see full list of projects here

The Jury has selected a number of works to make up the 3 exhibitions in the Robots and Avatars project. Linked to the differences in each venue, both in space and technical terms, the Jury has decided to present an exhibition that will differ slightly for each venue.

A selection of works will present at FACT, Liverpool (UK) for showing from late March to the end of May 2012; a few to AltArt, Cluj-Napoca (Romania) for presentation in June/July 2012 and KIBLA (Slovenia – as part of Maribor 2012, European Capital of Culture) will take a number of works into their gallery in October 2012.
