Overview FISEA Art Events
The Art Show ran parallel to the symposium in the Jaarbeurs Bernard Hall. It offered an overview of new art whereby the computer plays a role. These were selected from the competitions. Next to this, there was a special exhibition on computer art from Great Britain and new work from the Ohio State University from the United States. The work was shown as prints of computer-graphics, paintings based on computer-designs, video-documentaries of performances and other forms of electronic art, sculptures designed or produced with computer techniques, installations, computer animations on video and interactive computer programs. A call was sent out for a number of international competitions on
1. computer graphics & images processing
2. computer animation
3. video art
4. films & videos
depicting electronic art, including documentaries, concert registrations and so on,
5. the omniversum-competition and
6. the open-air event in Rotterdam.
The results of the first four competitions were admitted into the Art Show after a selection by an international jury. There were many submissions for computer graphics & image processing, computer animation and films & video’s depicting electronic art.
The different video-formats – VHS, U-matic, Betamax and video-norms – PAL, NTSC, SECAM were problematic for the selection of the submissions. The audiovisual service of the Dijkzicht Hospital (Rotterdam) converted all the video to PAL-VHS so the jury could watch more than 16 hours of video from 5 identical tapes.
UK Exhibition Art & Computers
An exhibition called Art & Computers, held in Augustusw-September 1988 in Middlesbrough, UK, organised by the Cleveland County Museum Service and Cleveland Arts, was brought over to FISEA. It is not clear whether the complete exhibition was shown at FISEA88 in Utrecht or only parts of it. See Catalogue_Art_&_Computers. For the Essays in the Catalogue see the FISEA Presentations page
