We can be heroes

In this era of cyberculture and collective intelligence, video games are more and more akin to be linked with artistic disciplines historically established. Video games aesthetics and their ways of reinventing reality are revealing a new “formal representation”. More and more artists are using them as a way of expression, in order to make participative plastic expolartions straying away from entertainment. In the works displayed in this exhibition, the role of the beholder remains fundamental thanks to the “participative” aesthetics. One beholds and acts at the same time. Margherita Balzerani
