Exhibited Works: CAS_V12 Deep Frieze, CAS_15.1 Deep Frieze, CAS_15.2 Deep Frieze, CAS_15.3 Deep Frieze, CAS_12.1 Caryatid Portrait, CAS_V10 Floating Portrait
Duration: 05.02–13.05.2022
Event type: Group Show
Organizer: Zebrastraat, Liedts-Meesen Foundation
Venue: Ghent, Belgium
During the last few years, Zebrastraat Ghent has developed into a stimulating knowledge centre with a strong interest in art. Every two years we organize a biennial called update_, linked with the New Technological Art Award (NTAA) contest, which tries to fill in a gap in the mainstream art world, by paying attention to the technological developments that drive our global culture.
NTAA selects and presents creations in which the culture-forming role of technology occupies a central place. Low or high tech, intuitive or experimental, the creations always draw our attention to actual innovative trends. The exhibition of achievements of the selected winners is a compass that orients you to the relevant temporal and resilient use of technology in the artistic sector.
