On the occasion of t

On the occasion of the XIIth edition, Florence Biennale bestowed The Lorenzo il Magnifico Lifetime Achievement Award for New Media & Installation Art to Refik Anadol “in praise of his extraordinarily innovative work resulting from an experimental and creative process, through which he engages viewers in a play on perception that triggers aesthetics rethinking and dissolve the boundaries which constrain our imagination. All this by reinterpreting Leonardo da Vinci’s legacy in new ways, through art, science, and breakthrough technology”. On display at the XII Florence Biennale 2019, his work titled “Melting Memories”, an immersive installation which, by giving the illusion of shifting forms on a picture plane with algorithmically generated compositions, makes the viewer reflect on ageing, cognitive decay, and mortality while enquiring the nature of the creative process in human beings. • • • • #florencebiennale #refikanadol #digitalart #datasculpture #contemporaryart #art #artist #awards #arte #sculpture
