WERC Artist Talk #3 with Pablo Valbuena

About this activity.

A series of talks with WERC’s favorite new media artists. Over the years we’ve met some inspiring, thought provoking and kind artists from all over the world. We’d love for you to meet them as well and so we’re inviting them for an Artist Talk in our studio, so we can all have a drink, talk about the current challenges and opportunities in new media art and discuss their work.

THIRD EDITION WITH PABLO VALBUENA

Born in 1978 in Spain and currently based in the south of France, Pablo Valbuena is known for art installations focused on space, time and perception. His art explores the overlap of the actual and the virtual, the creation of intellectual spaces by the observer, and the dissolution of boundaries between real and perceived. Pablo’s research examines the bonds connecting space and time and the use of light and sound as prime matter.

These ideas are developed in direct response to the perceptual qualities, physical conditions and surrounding influences of the location or space chosen to display the art piece.

Pablo Valbuena’s art installations have come to life in public and private institutions, biennials and galleries through exhibitions, site-specific commissions and large-scale public events throughout Europe, Asia and America. Pablo also frequently addresses these topics in academic contexts through artist talks and other speaking engagements.

The doors open at 20.00. The event is free but please register here.
