IMMEDIATE ART<<

Centre for Contemporary Art Laznia in Gdansk (PL)

and

curator Kasia Wozniak

are happy to present the IMMEDIATE ART project:

IMMEDIATE ART<< project concerns wide range of phenomena that deal
with the modern mutual relationships between arts and new
technologies. Our
aim is to build a panorama of these artistic phenomena and offer an
event
dealing with these issues in an integral form and wide thematic scope.

IMMEDIATE ART<< is a series of lectures given by the eminent
theoreticians. In parallel to the above mentioned lectures, the invited
artists will present their works, discuss the interconnectedness of art
and technology and will talk about their art from the point of view of
the
latest technological changes. We are deeply convinced that these two
complementary cycles will provide the public with an in-depth panorama
of the fascinating phenomena in the body of New Media Art.

We are very happy to invite You to the following lectures:
