PRESENTATION

La BDP est une manifestation d'art favorisant une dynamique

plus contemporaines. A travers des formes d'art avancees et par
la valorisation de la production immaterielle, elle entend redonner
ainsi a Paris une place majeure sur la scene artistique
internationale. Les productions immaterielles et les formes d'art
avancees signifient des oeuvres de l'esprit inscrites dans le reel
qui generent des elements de reflexion, de conscientisation, ou
relevant de l'ordre de l'experience personnelle, collective et
sociale. Liberees de l'emprise de l'esthetique dominante, les
productions immaterielles et les formes d'art avancees se
definissent en terme de pensee libre qui s'affirme.

PROGRAMMATION

nature de leurs propositions. Les oeuvres presentees a la

presentoir contenant des documents d'informations indiquant
l'existence d'une oeuvre, d'un lieu ou d'un participant a la
biennale, un rendez-vous, des produits derivees comme un
autocollant ou une carte postale, un course a pied, une
discussion, concretement rien, un service, un concert de
musique, une degustation, une rencontre... .Personnes, structures

FW: EXHIBITION: Tangible net.art

From: Teo Spiller <Teo@stikalo.net>
Date: Wed, 17 Dec 2003 13:13:16 +0000

Subject: EXHIBITION: Tangible net.art

TANGIBLE NET.ART

We imagine net.artist as a hacker, using hectoliters of coffe to produce
days
and nights HTML code, install web servers, digitalise sounds and pictures
and
program CGI scripts. The most obvious characteristic of their art works is,
they
are not tangible.

Teo Spiller, renomed net.artist from Ljubljana, turns those stereotypes
upside
down. On the group exhibition "Ground of my studio"
(http://www.wowm.org/gradec/) in the gallery Gradec in Zagreb, he shows
"Tangible net.art". His work provocative responses to tendencies of the art
system, to put to museums everything, recognised as art.

"net.art is an intimmate experience. User touches art work with his
interfaces:
keyboard and mouse. On the screen he or she observes art works responses.
Putting such works in museums is senceless. They are there for everyone,
connected to Internet" says Spiller.

Museums reminds him on something dusty and forgotten. He asked a hipotetic
question, how will they in a far future understand fragments,
"archeologists"
will find about net.art. And how will they exhibit it in their museums.
Spiller
guess about this in his new opus

Opening of the exhibition is on 18 th of December 2003 at 7 PM.

------------------------------------------------------------------
Teo Spiller's net.art works have been exhibited on media and computer art
festivals all over the world, including UNESCO day of poetry in Milano;
Irish
museum of modern arts in Dublin; "The masters of graphic works" biennial in
Gyor; Machida city museum of graphic arts in Tokyo; Venice Biennial; Museum
of
modern arts in Ljubljana and Ljubljana Municipal Museum.

In addition, his work is in public and corporate collections, including
those of
Ljubljana Minicipal Museum, Municipal museum of art in Gyor, Hungary and
Rhizome
artbase, New York city.

About his work were writen many articles, including New York Times online,
CIAC
electronic magazine and Radio Austria 1 an TV Gajba.

He organized more group artistic events with respectable participants from
aroud
the world. Best known are "net.art trde forum", as he as one of the first
net.artists in the world sold a net.art work, and INFOS 2000 "off-line
net.art
contest".

He wrote many articles about net.art and had several lectures about it,
including a workshop for art teachers in cooperation with Ministry for
culture
of RS.

Teo Spiller was born in Ljubljana, Slovenia in 1965. He lives and works in
Ljubljana, he is married and a father of two children.
