Il corso, a cura di Valentino Catricalà, verte sul rapporto tra arte e innovazione, concentrandosi in modo particolare su come gli artisti, utilizzando i media che stanno fondamentalmente cambiando le nostre società, non solo aprono nuove riflessioni sui media stessi, ma creano anche nuove pratiche che hanno una ricaduta anche sul mondo dell’innovazione. Il punto di interesse della ricerca non è solo come il mondo dell’arte possa svilupparsi attraverso la tecnologia, ma anche come il mondo dell’innovazione possa beneficiare della relazione con gli artisti. Queste tematiche saranno sviluppate attraverso l’analisi di alcuni case studies, con un focus sugli artisti che utilizzano database e archivi, per capire come gli archivi reinterpretati dagli artisti possano essere una fonte di innovazione tecnologica.
Nella seconda lezione l’artista Donato Piccolo racconterà la poetica del suo processo creativo e il continuo dialogo tra scienza, tecnologia e arte nelle sue opere.

Art and Innovation, a new idea of Archives
The course, curated by Valentino Catricalà, focuses on the relationship between art and innovation, on how artists, using media that are changing our societies, not only open up new reflections on media but also create new practices that impact the world of innovation. Therefore, the point of interest of the research is not only how the world of art can develop through technology but also how the world of innovation can benefit from the relationship with artists. These issues will be developed through case studies with a focus on artists who use databases and archives, to understand how archives reinterpreted by artists can be a source of technological innovation.
In the second lesson, the artist Donato Piccolo will discuss the poetics of his creative process and the ongoing dialogue between science, technology, and art in his work.
Il corso si terrà in italiano / The course will be held in Italian
