PERFORMANCE AND PERFORMERS
(Performance in video, video-performance, computer performance, performance
in Internet)
This section presents very heterogeneous artists referring to used media and
research results, which go from the video document to low definition analog
video, to digital elaborations, to multimedia performance, environments and
installations, performances in Internet. The common aspect is the centrality
of the body and/or of the voice, of sound and gesture aspects of the
concrete presence, even if some of the artists have realized also
not-performative works.

"Paint From Nature" - the nature as media landscape and telematic passage -
is made of 77 e-mails chosen among threehundred arrived at the Karenina.it
Redaction September 11 - 15. In a rigorous non-iconic way it describes a
tragedy, which no art image could comment.
Realized for the first time in Florence February 4, 2002, at the opening of
the visual poetry exhibition "Tribute to Marinetti" (Giubbe Rosse) and
selected for the Rhizome net-art database (NY), "Paint from Nature" is now
actuated in a new version: it contains a blank e-mail which represent all
the not-received messages from Afghanistan and from all the poor countries
tormented from war, that are condemned to the silence and to a sort of
not-existence from the absence of technology.
The choral sound of the rhizomers voices in the "copy from nature", from the
telematic "truth" - which actuates its existence in the continuous passage
from the real to the virtual and back - comes from an every-place, or from a
no-place, from a texture of contacts, which is also a "thing", space where
enter, wander, look for, reality. This space, in the performance "Paint from
nature", is copied down, or, with a metaphor, photographed,
after it was framed in the monitor, together with some questions about what
a net-performance "really" is, what a "copy from nature" and the "nature"
self, for an artist, in the net, in the media universe, is, how Internet
brings in discussion the role of the artist, his identity, and these
concepts (identity, reality, copy, nature, original, presence, performance,
role, space-time) result disintegrated but also reconstructed.
Caterina Davinio's work "Paint From Nature", made of interaction, action,
e-mail art, creation of an object/real remote installation, copy realized
with technologic
instruments which are in hands of an artist today (digital, identical with
the represented original, but that finally concretises itself in an unique
not-reproducible experience this work, made of
communic/action, and generating itself while the communication runs, do not
falls under the categories that the art and the critic put at disposal.

The net-art performance dedicated to the Twin Towers disaster will be
presented June 8 in the contest of the Poetry/Performance exhibition
organized by Akenaton at the EGLISE ANGLICANE, COURS GENERAL LECLERC,
AJACCIO (F)
"Paint From Nature" - the nature as media landscape and telematic passage -
is made of 77 e-mails chosen among threehundred arrived at the Karenina.it
Redaction September 11 - 15. In a rigorous non-iconic way it describes a
tragedy, which no art image could comment.
Realized for the first time in Florence February 4, 2002, at the opening of
the visual poetry exhibition "Tribute to Marinetti" (Giubbe Rosse) and
selected for the Rhizome net-art database (NY), "Paint from Nature" is now
actuated in a new version: it contains a blank e-mail which represent all
the not-received messages from Afghanistan and from all the poor countries
tormented from war, that are condemned to the silence and to a sort of
not-existence from the absence of technology.
The choral sound of the rhizomers voices in the "copy from nature", from the
telematic "truth" - which actuates its existence in the continuous passage
from the real to the virtual and back - comes from an every-place, or from a
no-place, from a texture of contacts, which is also a "thing", space where
enter, wander, look for, reality. This space, in the performance "Paint from
nature", is copied down, or, with a metaphor, photographed,
after it was framed in the monitor, together with some questions about what
a net-performance "really" is, what a "copy from nature" and the "nature"
self, for an artist, in the net, in the media universe, is, how Internet
brings in discussion the role of the artist, his identity, and these
concepts (identity, reality, copy, nature, original, presence, performance,
role, space-time) result disintegrated but also reconstructed.
Caterina Davinio's work "Paint From Nature", made of interaction, action,
e-mail art, creation of an object/real remote installation, copy realized
with technologic
instruments which are in hands of an artist today (digital, identical with
the represented original, but that finally concretises itself in an unique
not-reproducible experience this work, made of
communic/action, and generating itself while the communication runs, do not
falls under the categories that the art and the critic put at disposal.
