Abstract:
Experimenta is Australia’s leading contemporary arts organisation dedicated to commissioning, exhibiting and promoting art driven by technology. Since its inception in 1986, Experimenta has developed a worldwide reputation for fostering creativity that extends the aesthetic, conceptual and experiential potential of new art forms. Experimenta showcases dynamic contemporary artworks at the nexus of art with digital media, science and technology, and design. Melbourne based, with national and global reach, Experimenta supports Australian artists through regular touring exhibitions and major multi-artform projects. These exhibitions and projects present artists working with technology in unexpected and unconventional ways, creating artworks that are daring, ambitious, interactive and often remarkable. These artworks raise questions about the present and the past and new ways of viewing the world around us. They also provide a glimpse into possible futures. In 2020, Experimenta explores it’s most ambitious exhibition theme to date: Life Forms. Experimenta Life Forms will present more than 20 leading contemporary Australian and International artists whose work is about life as we know it, or indeed, as we don’t know it.
