EXPLAINING ART WITH WORDS:
A MULTILINGUAL DICTIONARY AS A DIDACTIC TOOL
ONLINE SYMPOSIUM HELD BY ABAROMA AND CURATED BY BEATRICE PERIA AND MARCO RINALDI
19th March
h 10:00
In the framework of EU4ART project will be introduced the state of work of the multilingual art dictionary on which members of ABAROMA, HUFA, HfBK and LMA are working.
The dictionary is a collection of two main terms groups, Poiesis and Praxis, separated for convenience, but intimately connected to each other in the daily didactic activity of Fine Arts Universities.
Language is a fundamental tool of understanding, learning and cultural integration: this is the reason why this tool is being realized aimed primarily at students and teachers, who will take part to mobilities among the four institutions of the project. Even if nowadays English represents the common language, the multilingual dictionary keeps domestic expressions, slangs and definitions from the four languages: Italian, Hungarian, German and Latvian.
This tool will be useful in the enhancement of cultural and linguistic differences as in the implementation of a more complete communication and mutual understanding in the art realm.
At the Symposium there will be speeches by staff members, who will present several issues linked to the dictionary, and artists who will talk about keywords of their artistic work and didactic activity.

"Exhibiting Beyond the Physical Space"
start on Nov 25, 2020 1pm
every wednesday, 1pm-3pm, Nov ‘20-Feb ‘21
Register until Nov. 18, 2020 >>> eu4art@hfbk-dresden.de
It is open for up to 6 students from each university.
As the digital appearance or reproduction of a work of art becomes more and more important due to the increasing possibilities of digital dissemination and circulation mechanisms, there is also a shift towards exhibitions that are developed for online reception. The Corona crisis showed however, how limited the common presentation formats of art are despite digitalization. The standardized (and institutionalized) physical art presentation (e.g. White Cube) is not really suitable for the digital realm, and a dry shift from physical to digital often remains lifeless. The curatorial urge should therefore be to continue to investigate the question of how to think and define the showing of art anew in the post-digital age!
The seminar develops and explores possibilities, strategies and tendencies of exhibitions and art presentation online and beyond the standardized exhibition space. The participants work together towards an online exhibition project, platform models or (online) solutions that are sustainably functional and useable. The aim is to develop ideas for artistically linking new virtual and physical presentation and production approaches and collaborative working methods. How can we work together while being geographically separated? How can art be presented virtually and beyond the white cube, and how can it endure as art in new found spaces? How do we design art’s digital processing and distribution? How can and must the 'shift' from the physical to the digital and vice versa be artistically (and poetically) thought and designed? It is precisely an artistic and creative form of art presentation, distribution and collaboration that is in demand.
Think of the seminar as online ‘class meetings’ where we will work, explore, discuss and exchange to develop a project. We will host guests during the course of the seminar – Nuno Patrício (artist, curator and founder of ofluxo.net), Michele Gabriele & Monia Ben Hamouda (artists, curators and founders of something must break) and David Quiles Guilló the founder of thewrong.org online biennale – who will speak about their practice and experience with online exhibition projects and are there for Q+As.

"Physical Rules (don't) Apply here?! Exhibiting in the Digital Space"
Nov 11, 2020, 5 pm
Registration until Nov 10, 2020 >>>
There is no limitation of participants
Karla Krey in conversation with New Scenario
We expect to see art in museums or project spaces. However, there are numerous participatory, interventionist, digital, sculptural, borderline legal artistic approaches transcending the exhibition space.
The artists Paul Barsch and Tilman Hornig work together as "New Scenario" showing artistic works in digital space not only since the corona pandemic. Together with the artist Karla Krey, they take a look at digital exhibition practice and discuss the possibilities that arise in such a practice in the first place.
about: Paul Barsch and Tilman Hornig, alumni of the HfBK Dresden, develop virtual (group) exhibitions under the name New Scenario.
In her work Karla Krey explores visual narration in a social context. She is a member of the artists group fe*male intervention.

Uldis Zariņš
Sculptor, Anatomy Lecturer and Author of two books
Uldis Zarins (Riga, Latvia, 1976)
Uldis Zarins is currently teaching anatomy at the Art Academy of Latvia
He is the author of two books:
Anatomy for Sculptors (2013)
Anatomy of Facial Expression (2017)
Originally Uldis is a sculptor with more than a 25 years of figurative sculpting experience. After graduating from the Art Academy of Latvia in 2005 he became involved in numerous figurative sculpture projects all around the world. During this time Uldis realized there was a huge deficit of good visual material that could explain the form of the human figure. In 2013 he published his first book on the subject called Anatomy for Sculptors (Understanding human form). This quickly became popular worldwide among sculptors and CG artists and until now is still one of the most recognized books in the CG industry explaining human anatomy from the standpoint of the form.
There is no point of knowing the muscles and bones
if you do not understand the form itself.
The main idea of the 1st book was to break down the complex concepts and forms into simple, easy to understand geometrical primitives and then step by step increasing complexity, guiding the reader to complete understanding. It is nothing new of course. This concept was already described in the period of European Renaissance by Luca Cambiaso (1527- 1585) who in the mid-1560s began to draw in a simplified, geometric style that may have been inspired by similar works by Albrecht Dürer (1471- 1528).
This philosophy of multi levelness was later developed by such great anatomy teachers like George B. Bridgman (1865–1943) with his dynamic analysis of the human form in the great book Constructive Anatomy published in 1973. Later came Gottfried Bammes (1920 – 2007) with his anatomical and anthropometric principles described in the famous work Der nackte Mensch.
U. Zarins in his works is following the same path of these giants but rather using modern analysis methods and the latest discoveries in anatomy, physical anthropology and biomechanics.
‘’Visual Artists are the visual thinkers’’
According to Wolff, U., & Lundberg, in (2002) research, Art academy students reported significantly more signs of dyslexia than non‐art university students. That encouraged U. Zarins to use in his books less textual material and rather focus on visuals. It seems to be one of the factors of the popularity of his method.
What can medical science offer to Art education?
In 2017 U. Zarins published his second successful book Anatomy of Facial Expression. This idea of which came in 2015 when U. Zarins was studying contemporary medical research papers and plastic surgery literature on the anatomy of the soft tissue of the face. By his surprise he realized how useful this information could be for figurative artists. In the process of creating the book he was using advanced surface data analyzing methods such as Photogrammetry scanning and volume rendering analysis of the sophisticated medical diagnostic imaging such as CT, MRI and x-ray. Revealing very detailed analysis of the facial anatomy, physiology of the facial expression and dynamic age-related morphological changes of the human face.This along with plenty of reference materials from various angles. Anatomy of Facial Expression is popular not only among the artists but also plastic surgeons and Facial augmentation specialists.
U. Zarins is very interested in the practical value of the knowledge of anatomy but this knowledge must be applicable. Currently U. Zarins is doing his PHD on Ontogenetic morphological changes of the human face as well as working on his 3rd book Form of the Headand Neck that is supposed to be released in December 2020. It will be a fundamental and practical work on the detailed analysis of the form of the human head and neck, based on the latest discoveries in the anatomy of the face.

Susana Pilar Delahante Matienzo, artist from Cuba, Peter and Irene Ludwig Guest Professor & dr. habil. Tünde Varga, associate professor of HUFA
The presentation/ lecture focuses on contemporary planetary discourses and practices of art. The core of the lecture are two works by Susana Pilar Delahante Matienzo: Lo llevamos rizo: Concurso de cabello Afro Natural , Cuba, 2015/19, and the De lo que contaba la abuela, 2017. The first is a collaborative art project that poses questions of ethnic, cultural, social construct of power and identity through residual culture in the context of contemporary Cuba. The work/ project is a hair „beauty contest”, but in the background an intricate web of cultural, social, economic structure and historical inheritance become manifest as the project reflect on the possibility of imaginative, collective forms of cultural identity. The second is an installation of Matienzo’s family archive, it takes a different approach through the research of the archive of the personal family story. It is a query to what extent identity is imagined and imaged. How historical events (embedded in political, ideological structures) unfold through personal life narratives with art in the exhibition space as narration can be both, the narration of personal and collective identity. What social and political stance narratives take in highlighting certain forms of identity politics or cultural identity.
The lecture provides the context to these two works in divergent examples of contemporary art and its discursive frameworks, as well as the detailed presentations of these two works by the artist.
