[ISEA2023] Curator Statement: Micro-Folie at ISEA2023

Curator Statement

Exhibition. Forum des Images, May 16 – 17

ISEA2023 and the Cube Garges have partnered with the Micro-Folie network. In a logic of decentralization and democratization of culture, this project led by the French Ministry of Culture is open to local authorities and networks of the French Institute all over the world and offers access to a digital museum.

Thus, a Micro-Madness will be accessible to ISEA audiences throughout the Symposium, and the Cube Garges has been invited to curate a collection of digital arts, integrating artists from the ISEA2023 selection (including Mentalista, Félicie d’Estienne d’Orves, disnovation.org, XP unit, Franck Vigroux & Antoine Schmitt, as well as adrien m & claire b).

In addition, the Micro-Folie network will be a key partner in the distribution of the augmented catalog, allowing, in the long term, many audiences to discover the works selected for ISEA2023.

  • A micro–folie is a cultural space organised around 3 units: a digital museum, a café Little Folie and a fablab. And it can adapt to any local demand.
