The Lady with the Ermine is one of -in total- four women portraits of Leonardo DaVinci and got produced during the years of 1488 and 1490.The young woman you see is Cecilia Gallerani, mistress of the former duke of Milan. But this has never been her only role – she was well known as one of the most beautiful and talented poets of her time.

Originally, this piece of art was a remittance work, which the Duke wanted to get produced.

…But there is still the question of  what is has to do with the ermine on the woman’s arm.?! – Actually, Leonardo DaVinci clearly and specifically alludes to the duke, whose nickname was The White Ermine.

To let you face Cecilia’s smile, producer Nora Bork was using the stop-motion technique.

Stop Motion Animation is a technique used in animation to bring static objects to life on screen. This is done by moving the object in increments while filming a frame per increment. When all the frames are played in sequence it shows movement.

Nora Borks’ video is a nice example of how mediatization and technization can be used to bring us closer to artworks. In this case, it is about the creation of a new possibility to directly interact with the art piece. This new access is in addition a clever way to trigger the viewers mind and let him create stories about this mystical young woman with the Ermine on her arm.

…where the digital becomes physical. Artists of the YOUR ART BEAT MARKET

-EXHIBITION – GROUP SHOW-

…where the digital becomes physical

is not only the moving motive behind the YOUR ART BEAT MARKET, now it also becomes an active program in a non-virtual form! For the first time, YOURARTBEAT is presenting its artists offline and exhibits the works that were previously only available for viewing and buying in the online shop.

In addition to a lovingly compiled and eclectic selection of original works, as well as specially produced art pieces, also a variety of materials are demonstrated with which we not only experiment and create alternative forms of artistic manifestation, but in particular transform the digital and media arts into physical shape.

Individual media contributions by the artists themselves not only open up new perspectives or give background information, they also enable a more personal encounter with the creators.

YOURARTBEAT look forward to an inspiring interplay of the polarizing textures of the digital-virtual and the analogue-physical, to the exploration of various materials and consistencies in combination with digital art and interactive media stations, creating personal approaches, highlighting and deepening specialized backgrounds.

During the two-week show, there will also be accompanying programs of virtual reality and audiovisual design.

 

Exhibition Opening: 14 Febuary 2019 – 7 PM

Duration: 15 to 28 Febuary 2019

Opening Hours: Monday to Friday: 4 to 8 PM // Saturday: 1 to 6 PM

KUN$TW€RK – Eine Fachtagung

EMPFEHLUNG: KUN$TW€RK. Das Werk? oder sein Wert? – Eine Fachtagung

Die Tagung thematisiert die zunehmende Verschmelzung der Begriffe des KunstWERKs und KunstWERTs und hinterfragt die zunehmende Maßlosigkeit im KunstMARKT.

 

Im Rahmen dreier Themenschwerpunkte wollen wir mit Beteiligten verschiedenster Disziplinen diskutieren und versuchen zu verstehen, was die reziproke Beziehung zwischen Kunstobjekten und ihren zugeschriebenen Werten beeinflusst. In einem zunehmend konzentrierter werdenden Fokus beschäftigt sich die Tagung mit der Kommerzialisierung von Kunst, dem speziellen Fall Berlins auf dem Kunstmarkt und der Rolle von Museen beim Kauf und Verkauf von Kunstobjekten.

Um differenzierte Einblicke zu erhalten und einen dynamischen Austausch zu generieren gliedert sich das Programm in drei Blöcke mit Impulsvorträgen, Podiumsdiskussionen und offenen Diskussionen mit dem Publikum. Ziel ist es, den Teilnehmenden einen Raum für eine Sensibilisierung und kritische Auseinandersetzung mit diesem polarisierendem Thema zu bieten.

 

Hierbei wird die Berlinische Galerie den idealen Ausgangspunkt bilden, da sie sowohl KunstWERKE als auch KunstWERTE vermittelt. Bei KUN$TW€RK handelt es sich um ein Projekt der Masterstudierenden (HTW Berlin) aus dem Bereich “Museumsmanagement und -kommunikation”.

Hier findet Ihr mehr zum Programm und denReferierenden:

Dear community,

After another successful year of YOUR ART BEAT we want to inform you about the latest news, activities and results.

In addition to the revision of our website, also the online shop of YOURARTBEAT went online: the YOUR ART BEAT MARKET.

Together with the artists we have put together a great selection that can be printed on qualitative and unique materials by aid of our new professional partner GLASTRIX.

But the YOUR ART BEAT assortment will not only be shown exclusively online – after all, we are planning an exhibition for the beginning of next year, in which we want to exhibit both the works and their unique effect due to the special materiality! – But more information will follow soon.

Until then, we are pleased to welcome you online to our market on www.your-art-beat-market.myshopify.com

Furthermore, this year we produced three short videos that give newcomers a good overview of our various tools and resources. The new videos for the blog, the association and the shop can be seen on both youtube and vimeo so just click through!

In addition, we would like to draw your attention to our Xmas contest, which runs until December 23rd. Find more information here or on Facebook.

We look forward to hearing from you about new ideas and projects and hope to come together again at the exhibition next year! Until then we wish you a nice winter time and a happy new year!

Best regards, YOUR ART BEAT TEAM

Virtual/Real – Digital/Analog – Intangible/Physical

THIS ARTICLE IS ABOUT THE JUXTAPOSITION

– of VIRTUAL and REAL – of DIGITAL and ANALOG – of INTANGIBLE and PHYSICAL –

Honestly, I am not sure if this is a confrontation or a steady transformation process – Maybe both… On the one hand, the growing technologization and the general digitalization is leading us to an ongoing abstraction of our world.

For example, money: Once upon a time, people were trading with items or gold. Gold became a bundle of money, the banknote became a paper check and finally, we use PayPal and pay with bitcoin – a currency that only exists on the screen. Books are replaced by a kindle, records are transformed into an mp3 file and friendship is only defined by the connection via facebook. How desirable is that?

 

Meanwhile, I mostly see in this a polarity that is increasing in radicalism and become more and more extremeand so often I am just thinking: Hello guys! Don’t you see that your property and ownership is an illusion .?

Augmented and virtual reality is just the beginning. It really gets creepy when you are on the phone and not sure if there is a human being or a computer software at the other end of the line. For example, the google assistant – this intelligence is not only reacting to you like Siri, it laughs, it changes mood and sound of the voice, it even makes human noises in its talking breaks like „mhh“ or „aha“…

X X X

I think the phenomenon of digitalization is especially interesting in the field of the arts.

Museums and cultural institutions digitalize their collections and thereby following two goals. On the one hand, they want to create new access to arts and culture and use diverse ways to catch people. In addition to the intention of education and mediation, digitalization of artifacts and cultural heritage allows better and more sustainable preservation – works are kept for eternity and „the problem“ of transcience seems to be solved.

But does transcience not also implicates the specialty of things, the individual nature of moments – might be even beautiful?…but that is another topic, so back to art and digitality!

Of course, technology brings benefits in terms of preservation, on the other side it can also devalue arts and offer a basis to disfigure something wonderful and valuable. I don’t know how you feel, but for me, every time I see a digital image of the Mona-Lisa with a distorted or exchanged face, something dies in me.

But then it is also said that just haptic works are „real“ works. Everything that is digital has no consistency – thus no value – thus it can not be sold in the big auction houses. But creating digital art pieces also emerges out of a craft, skill or talent.

Especially in the more traditional and conventional fields, this new and modern art form is not taken seriously and the digital and media arts are clearly undervalued, although they create new potential and promote artistic expressions of individual creativity.

YOURARTBEAT has recognized the aesthetics behind digital arts and even put a focus on it.

The new YOUR ART BEAT MARKET is a brand new online shop that especially gives the Digital Arts a haptic medium and transforms the Virtual into something real: A place where the digital becomes physical. It is about finding physical media that can reflect both the dimensional depth of the image and the inner depth, its “soul”

To ensure this, YOURARTBEAT experimented with a variety of materials and made a selection that is able to meet the just mentioned aspects. In addition, they serve solutions concerning different tastes and design variations but also can address different price categories without loosing on a qualitative level. Therefore, YOURARTBEAT  is offering the digital artworks in the following materials: Glass – Aluminium – Lightboxes – and of course usual Fine Art Paper… Especially glass is an awesome material – maybe because it can imitate a similar texture as a screen.

So we see: also digital things can be transformed into something real, something analog and physical. This whole topic is really strange and can be seen from many perspectives. There are positive as well as negative aspects.

X X X

Anyway, it feels like I’ll probably have to accept that we live in a world where your reputation depends on your virtual representation on the web, where you pay food with bitcoin and Leonardo Da Vinci’s Mona Lisa has the face of Angela Merkel…

Digitization, Virtuality and, Intangibleness – Does it mean that you can’t lose things anymore Or is it implicating that you have never even owned them?

X X X

From the beginning, it was clear that this article will raise more questions than give answers…

So what do you think?

Christoph Kühl (*1960), studied free painting with Prof. Karl Oppermann at HdK Berlin.

His works are almost exclusively collages, i.e. they are made of painted paper with various techniques. Among other things, he also uses black and white copies from magazines and newspapers or weathered advertising from urban quarters.

The viewer is taken on a journey through three-dimensional spaces. Kühl’s pictures are the projection surface of these sensational sites. Found image pieces are put together to convey new impressions.

Christoph Kühl lives as a freelance artist in Berlin. Regular exhibitions and concerts at his studio in Weissensee.

Jörg Gimmler (* 1963), Master student of Georg Baselitz, combines aspects of Concrete Art and Minimal Art into large-format compositions, which are at the same time analytically precise and ecstatical. They place the viewer in front of a structure that deals with the movement of painterly abstraction itself. The artist calls this process “multiple positioning”, in which similar formal elements in oil and acrylic paint form suggestive structures that, as visual architectures, disorient rather than shelter the viewer.

Artist Statement: My art is about technology, it’s about the rise of its capabilities and its place in our life. Technology is not the subject of the art, but the process and medium. I use Technology to create colour and form which are meant to evoke positive emotions. The harmony between colour and shape is something I think that can be best created with technology. The shapes and the colours perfectly symmetrical, vibrant, even and smooth. I contrast this with faint nods to natural techniques that where traditionally made with age old processes but now can be made with technology. Spray painting and watercolour painting are used looking back at fine art and using a hint of the textures that they create to form familiarity within the picture.

I like digital art because it can go viral in its original form. Viewing it on Instagram, viewing it on your smartphone, you are looking at it in its purest state. It’s only when it is printed that it then becomes a copy of that artwork. I want everyone to see my work through technology; you don’t have to go to a gallery to access my art, and it can be viewed on the internet just seconds after I have created it. You could see a new piece of art daily right there on your phone, I feel like it is a constant source of positivity. My art is supposed to represent the good of technology.
