Villa de Riseis, Pescara, luglio 2009

During the weekend of july 9-12 Pescara will host a festival involving 30 students coming from different countries, to contribute and exchange on artistic practices as well theoretical discourse. The students are encouraged to expose their artistic productions and integrate their visions and languages in a multi-faceted Mediterranean environment, interacting with a local and global audience.

“Ark in the Part” is a Mediterranean art-camp involving students from different places to meet, develop and show their creations. It will unfold during a week of practical and theoretical exchange on themes like radio making, media design, recycling and cycling, involving art practices flowing in public spaces and social networks.

This event is co-organised with a collaboration between the cultural association “La Grotta dell’Elfo” focusing on game cultures and the foundation “dyne.org” focusing on free software and new media art. It will host a concert, a theatre representation and a role playing game tournament, while the art-camp concerning this document will be a complementary space for exchange, presentations, hands-on workshops and a laboratory for installations and performances.

The artistic installations and presentations are facilitated and selected by a committee of local practicioners, following a cooperative and inter-disciplinary approach to artistic direction: Denis J. Roio (media art), Andrea di Cesare (installation art) and Piero di Silvestro (performative art) are blended in action by the producer Elisa Petaccia.
