Tirana Biennale New media section, Tirana, Albania, from september 12 to oc=
tober 25 2003

"Global conscience as utopia"



Internet has defined a new kind of space based on a new concept of ti=
me: Temporality based on moment of 24h00 which are moving from second to se=
cond. This media space which fluctuates and which is moving and migrating i=
s defining a new kind of globalization. This can be compared to a kind of a=
Utopic topos.
U -Topos is the favorite place for some artists that use this media t=
o explore how our perception is evolving. They may propose a new kind of cr=
itique about human factor in technological time, or they may also focus on =
a new definition and status of art. Concepts such as "Time ready made", "ne=
en", "language art", are often used by this generation.
As an artist curator I asked these artists to produce specific pieces=
where they can bring their perception of the concept of "Global conscience=
as Utopia".

The topics U-topos choosen by the biennale is directly linked to the =
status of the country who is hosting this biennale. This event is existing =
just through the solidarity and the kindness of a community !

Biennale de Tirana Nouveaux media, Tirana, Albanie, du 12 septembre 12 au 2=
5 october 25 2003

"La conscience globale comme Utopie"

Internet a defini un nouvel espace base sur un autre type de temp=
oralite: Une temporalite basee sur des instants de 24h00 migrant de s=
econdes en secondes. Cet espace migrant et fluctuant definit une nouvelle=
globalisation qui pourrait etre comparee a un topos utopique.
U -Topos est le locus favori de quelques artistes qui utilisent les m=
edia afin de voir comment notre perception evolue. Ils peuvent proposer d=
e nouvelles critiques au sujet du facteur humain a l'age technologique,=
ou encore peuvent s'interresser aux nouvelles definitions et statut de l=
'Art. Des concepts tels que 'time ready made', "neen", "language art" sont =
tres souvent utilises par ces generations.
Comme artiste commissaire invite par la biennale de Tirana, j'ai de=
mande a ces artistes de produire des pieces specifiques valorisant =
leur perception du concept de "La conscience globale".

Le theme U-Topos choisi par la biennale renvoie au statut du pays q=
ui l'acceuille (l'Albanie). Cet evenment n'a pu avoir lieux que grace=
a la logique solidaire et benevole d'une communaute !
