Art Show Overview:
Synaesthesia, the SIGGRAPH 2004 Art Gallery, exhibits work by visionary artists that stimulate the?senses. This year, more than 150 art pieces encourage the viewers to see, hear, and touch the art.?These include 2D, 3D, interactive works, installations, multimedia, telecommunications, computer?animation, screen- and sound-based work.
This year’s theme, Synaesthesia, demonstrates how artists can excite the senses using technology.?The techniques involved range from low-tech digital plotters to high-end computer graphics and?animation. It also features work from both well-established and younger contemporary artists. The?works all seek to question our notions of perception and creativity.
In addition to the works of art, the SIGGRAPH 2004 Art Gallery also presents six critical papers?and round-table discussions around the theme of Synaesthesia. The presenters are internationally?renowned theorists and artists whose work is being displayed in the gallery.
The prestigious Ars Electronica 2003 (Linz, Austria) have chosen the SIGGRAPH 2004 Art Gallery?to celebrate 25 years of their existence by presenting a chronicle of their history. The Gallery also?includes the work of artists who were prize-winners and exhibitors at Ars Electronica in 2003. It is?a truly international show, with artists from around the globe.
The SIGGRAPH 2004 Art Gallery also collaborated with the Computer Animation Festival, Emerging?Technologies, Sketches, and Web Graphics to give artists a wider forum to speak and exhibit?their work.
