The Great Battle @ NordArt.
Held in a historic iron foundry in Schleswig-Holstein. NordArt, is one of the largest annual contemporary art exhibitions in Europe.
This year it is celebrating its quarter-century anniversary with special projects, and by honouring the outstanding performances of the past – the NordArt award winners.
"„Like an invisible seismograph, art records the tremors of society with honest precision,” says the Principal Curator of NordArt, Wolfgang Gramm. “It reflects the truth and the intuitive yearnings of humanity through the curious minds of artists. They gather from across the world to piece together a dream of the future from past experiences, visualising paradise against hopelessness. What is remarkable here is that, through paradox, dialogue and empathy, the artists from very diverse backgrounds form a shared vision that pervades every piece of art.”

Beauty filters, instantly changeable avatars, cyber tribalism, new forms of stereotypes, and simulations that obscure the flaws, limitations, imperfections, and mistakes of real human beings are all the outcomes of digital reductionism and techno-capitalism.
Digital technologies were supposed to help us achieve a more egalitarian society and mobilize individuals through equal accessibility, freedom of expression, and new means of social communication and relationships. But the affordances of digital systems along with the emergence of techno-capitalism, fueled by neoliberal values and ideas, realized a radically different scenario.

Realms, After Darger, China/Cambodia, 5m x 1.2m, 2023
This image began as a tribute to Henry Darger, and has the primary goal to create something ethereal and unreal. It is based in a scene, where the upper half of the image is taken in Angkor Thom, Cambodia, using a Gigapan camara, which allows for a huge panoramic image and the lower half of the image began is another similar image taken of the Terracotta Army, in Xian, China. This scene is overlaid with hundreds of Ai generated characters. Some based on the iconography of Darger and others, are of unusual and often uncanny.
