Electronic ink makes artists dream...

Galarno attended the first festival of books and cinema on art (FILAF) in Perpignan, and took part in the workshop that followed the conference of Bruno Rives, from Tebaldo, on breakthrough innovations and art (electronic ink, augmented reality, ambient intelligence, etc.).
The theme of this first edition, "Dreaming", brought together and rewarded the authors of films or books on art, among the bests, from many countries including France, Belgium, Spain, Germany, Switzerland and the United States, from June 30 to July 3.


Artists have been able to try a A4 tablet based on color electronic paper and we see here the sketch made ​​on the fly by Abdelkader Benchamma, visual artist participating to the festival. 

After the workshop we held in Berlin last November, we again observed how naturally the artists take ownership of this medium as a classical medium of creation.

Art Travel Notebooks in Berlin

Photo by Patricia Despagne
Whether it be a diary, travel journal, writer’s notepad, painter’s sketchpad, screenplay, film shoot . . . these media all share the way in which they instigate their dialogue with the world. They all amass traces, specimens, pictures and signs. The artist collects, compiles, interprets through different illustrative techniques, texts, audio and video . . .
As a phenomenon of fashion or society and as an object in the process of disappearance or work of public interest, the exhibition brings to the public, in practice and in findings, the notebook, a format new and familiar at the same time.
Exhibition : May 14-23, 2010 in Galerie Artport - Berlin
