Discover it to learn more about the program! The festival SELF will be organized in Venice at Palazzo Ca’ Zanardi and Venice Art House, starting from the opening day of Venice Art Biennale, May 9, 2015, with a rich program of different events until November 2015. Artists, photographers, video makers and performers, will have the amazing opportunity to show their works to a huge audience, during one of the most important period for the whole art world. SELF will be composed by collective and solo shows hosted at Ca’ Zanardi and Venice Art House gallery, and it will include the experimental program of exhibitions and art residencies LIQUID ROOMS. For the first time in Venice we will give audience the possibility to have private meetings with artists, to meet them personally and share their art and experience. The festival will include 11 events of photography, painting, video art, installation/sculpture and performance art, with a strong program of video art screenings and premiers, art residencies, talks, workshops, private meetings between artists and audience, live dj set, live experimental dance and art performances. The festival SELF and the experimental section LIQUID ROOMS are organized and curated by Luca Curci (director of It’s LIQUID and International ArtExpo) and Andrea Chinellato (director of Ca’ Zanardi and Venice Art House). The festival aims to conduct a 360° investigation about the SELF. After many years of research and exhibitions about the evolution of the idea of identity, we ask artists to share their personal tales through their artworks; to create a link between their personal experience and the audience through the artworks exhibited; to share their private tales and the reason beneath their work with the public. To take part in the one or more events of SELF festival, send your works’ submissions with a CV/biography, some still images (for video-art), links of videos/performances, pictures of artworks via e-mail to lucacurci@lucacurci.com. Each event will present an exclusive selection of artworks, video screening program, intense live performances, with its own dedicated opening ceremony and PR campaign. At the end of the whole exhibition cycle there will be the publication of acatalogue. Artists interested in taking part in our shows, are free to be sponsored and supported by institutions, organizations, governments and their representers; the logos of their sponsors will be included in all the communication (digital and print) of the events. Artists are free to take part in one or more of the programmed events.
