Since 2007, the Digital Art Festival has spread the themes of Art through New Technologies in four pillars of action in Brazil (workshops, lectures, performances and art exhibition). The proposal of this presentation is to present opportunities to the community in the 2nd Digital Art Biennial (2020). The main theme is “Conditions of Existence”. The Digital Art Biennial was conceived in 2015 with the objective of celebrating in the year 2018 the 10 years of activity of FAD – the Digital Art Festival, one of the pioneering festivals about art and technology in Brazil. The Digital Art Biennial emerges how a new project platform as an international programming project in Brazil, seeking to verticalize the reflections for art in technological means and its derivations. The 2nd Digital Art Biennial 2020 is a great opportunity for all makers and thinkers present at ISEA and at the Image Festival.
