Abstract Project. A gallery. An emanation of Realités Nouvelles Salon

"It is a collaboration and participation driven Art Centre aiming to address esthetical, scientific or societal issues related to abstraction. This experimental art space emanating from the Réalités Nouvelles Association is open to artists, curators, critics, art historians and art students.

"It is a place of creativity, reflection and diffusion for abstract, non-figurative, non-objective art forms, whatever the form or medium. It is a space dedicated to exhibitions, exchange and confrontation. Debates, colloquia, workshop and artist in residence programs will be intercalated within the program of exhibitions. All contemporary creation projects are eligible as long as they are closely related to abstraction."

"It is managed by a committee of artists participating on two levels of responsibility: Organisation & Programming and Project Implementation & Follow-Up. Each artist contributes as much as he/she can in terms of both availability and skills in order to ensure the missions of selection, development and implementation of artistic projects and exhibitions.

"These projects are financed by the exhibiting artists and contributors themselves while the members of Abstract Project and Réalités Nouvelles contribute on a free and voluntary basis. Support funding will come from membership fees as well as support from “friends” of ABSTRACT PROJECT – An Abstract Art Space and other sponI

"It emanates from the Salon Réalités Nouvelles Association but is not only open to artists exhibiting at the Salon des Réalités Nouvelles. It is also open to other artists.

"It is developing a policy of mediation in favour of the public as part of the development of the contemporary art offer in Paris and particularly, in the 11th arrondissement.

"With the support of the Réalités Nouvelles Association, it also wishes to promote a partnership policy at both national and international level for “beyond-the-walls” projects aiming to encourage artistic networking and exchange with other structures and cultural organisations

Acevedo Victor .
- ACM/Siggraph Education Committee/The History of Computer Graphics and Digital Art.
- Presented in Frank Popper : From Technology to Virtual Art

- He says himself "The computer is crucial to the creation of the work. It is the tool or instrument utilized to build the metaphorical space-frame ‘psychic-energetic-molecular’ models in a virtual 3-space. The computer mediates in its enabling seamless compositing of purely computer generated structures with digitized photography. The flow of the creative work is ‘cyber’ in that it is man-machine interface that in effect boot-straps the artist into a dynamical interactive feed-back loop of intuition and analytical thought."

As Harold Cohen or Faure-Walker, Acevedo began his career as a traditional painter. He painted his last oil canvas in 1984 and afterwards used only the computer

So the projected dance videos not only reflect off the ball, they also “solar”-power the motor that makes it rotate – which creates zoetrope-like projections on the surrounding walls, floors, surfaces, and people. We’ll perform the ball live, adding color and light effects to the video projections that vary the amount of light to the solar cells. That changes the speed of the ball’s motor, which allows us to somewhat “choreograph” the movement of the projected visuals as they move around the...

> Hakanaï. (2013) "Hakanaï is a solo choreaographic performance that unfolds through a series of images in motion. In Japanese Hakanaï denotes that which is temporary and fragile, evanescent and transient, and in this case something set between dreams and reality. While widely associated with nature, the term is now often used to elicit an intangible aspect of the human condition and its precariousness. It encompasses two elements: that concerning the human being as well as that related to dreams. This symbolic relationship is the foundation of the dance composition in which a dancer gives life to a space somewhere between the borders of imagination and reality, through her interactions with the images she encounters. The images are on-stage animations that move in physical patterns according to the rhythm of the live sounds that they follow. The performance's outcome is the revelation of a digital installation to its audience.

> The Nibelungen Treasure (2001-2012), with Mâa Berriet and Thierry Fournier. See an extensive description , and a video captation. One of the first (if not the first) works of Art developed for a cave system. It had been designed, as for its principles, in 1997. It was for the first time staged in 2000 (ISEA 2000, at the Paris Goethe Institute), then shown at Boston Cyberart festival in 2001, and was finally installed in the Worms (Germany) Nibelungen Museum. And, alas, destroyed.
- Note on the authors.
- Technically, the work uses the VR software AAAseed, provided by Emmanuel Maa Berriet. This work helped to finance its development and was a testbench. The sound software is Max MSP. The work broke technical new grounds since nearly everything here is procedurally computed. There are very few sampled images and sound, and so much so as the major part of what is seen or heard is created on the fly, following the visitors - Unfortunately, the work has been destroyed in 2012. See the tale by Auber, along with other images of the work.

< The poietic generator (1984). an interactive device, collective and synchronous, casted on Internet since 1995. From this year, Auber has developed a theory of "anoptic perspectives".
- Comments in [Forest 2] and in [Couchot 2003, p. 234] "on the Web, works composed with multiple images which, while remaining the initiative of one only author, the upstream-author Auber, associate several participants in their creation" (our translation). In 2015, the project is still in development, and shown at Futur en Seine (see our post).
