12i
2012

Voor de eerste maal in Europa stelt Marcio Ambrosio zijn speelse, interactieve installatie 12i voor. Marcio liet zich inspireren door het principe van de zoötroop – een voorloper van de cinema uit de 19de eeuw – en combineert de klassieke animatietechnieken met nieuwe technologieën. De kunstenaar leidt de deelnemers naar een magisch universum waarin ze uitgenodigd worden om hun eigen animaties op te nemen, te bekijken en te delen in een sculpturale installatie met beeld en geluid.

De preview voor professionelen vindt plaats op woensdag 2 februari, uitsluitend na reservatie.
