Art & Science

The basis of the „European Digital Art and Science Network“ is a big manifold network consisting of scientific mentoring institutions (ESA, CERN, ESO and Fraunhofer MEVIS), the Ars Electronica Futurelab and seven European cultural partners (Center for the promotion of science, RS – DIG Gallery, SK – Zaragoza City of Knowledge Foundation, ES – Kapelica Gallery / Kersnikova, SI – GV Art, UK – Laboral, ES – Science Gallery, IE. The EU funded project lasted from 2014 to 2017. The Online Archive of Ars Electronica provides an overview of the individual activities of the network and also delivers information about the network itself, the residency artists and the involved project partners and the jury.

Art & Science Volume No. 1 at DIG gallery 2016
Exhibition series
Vol. 1: 01.10. – 31.10.2016 - curated by Richard Kitta, Michal Murin
Vol. 2: 01.11. – 30.11.2016 - curated by Michal Murin, Richard Kitta
Vol. 3: 01.12. – 31.12.2016 (prolonged till 31.01.2017) - curated by Richard Kitta, Matej Ivan

This Art & Science exhibition series was a kind of a challenge for the Slovak audience, because there are still not so many existing parallels within the domestic culture context.

A series of three specific international exhibitions at DIG gallery exposed the art works by eight foreign artists and five Slovak artists who oscillate between the contemporary art zone and areas of scientific research. An Art & Science topic is quite an intuitive area, even for the local artists and scientists, so we chose a co-education-like format and the exhibition also presented the goals of the the European Digital Art & Science Network.
