CYFEST 14 Mesa, Arizona: PERFORMANCE
"Symphony for bicycles" by Alexey Grachev, Alexander Bochkov, and Sergey Komarov

November 19 at 6:30 pm (MST)
ASU MIX Center, 50 North Centennial Way, Mesa, Arizona, USA

The artists on the bikes regulate the sound and rhythm by their pedaling, and together create the final work. How the “symphony” is performed depends on the motion of both cyclists. The intentions and aspirations of the participant acquire sonic expression. They may become synchronized, and try to turn the pedals in the same rhythm, to be in harmony. Or they may intentionally disturb this and cause harmonic fluctuations, creating complex combinations of sounds that arise when movements are not synchronized.

Coming soon: CYFEST-14 New York
"Ferment: Metamorphoses and Reflections"

December 6, 2022 – January 3, 2023
The National Arts Club, 15 Gramercy Park South, New York, NY 10003 (Mon–Sun: 10 AM – 5 PM) -> https://www.cyfest.art/ferment-metamorphoses-and-reflections

Titled "Ferment", the 14th edition of CYFEST features an interdisciplinary group of artists and collectives whose works reflect the biological process of fermentation as an entry point in seeking new approaches to rediscover ways of perceiving and relating to the world. The works in the program demonstrate a wide range of cultural, scientific, ethical and aesthetic concepts of fermentation as a process of change for the living and the dead, human and non-human, color and smell, sounds and impressions.

"Ferment: Metamorphoses and Reflections" at the National Art Club in New York is the latest in a series of thematic exhibitions organized as part of the CYFEST 14 International Media Art Festival. It features artists working in the fields of painting, drawing, printmaking, installation, film and video, photography and new media, with a selection of nonconformist and contemporary works. The exhibition offers a vision of fermentation as a metaphor for the transformative potential of vulnerable social and cultural environments and historical contexts. Through an experimental and transdisciplinary methodology, participating artists create hybrid forms that interweave multiple fields of study and philosophies of aesthetics. Understanding fermentation as an imaginary concept in which scientific precision and artistic imagination intersect and inform one another, this exhibition creates new myths capable of motivating better forms of transdisciplinary solidarity.

The list of artists includes Alexandra Dementieva, Carla Gannis, Anna Frants, Ivan Govorkov, Elena Gubanova, Masbedo (Nicolò Massazza, Iacopo Bedogni), Anne Spalter, Katran, Natalya Nesterova, Joan Snyder, Valeriy Gerlovin, Rimma Gerlovina, Ilya Kabakov, Valentina Povarova, Alexey Titarenko, Arsen Savadov, Petr Belenok, Chakaia Booker, David Datuna, Dasha Skorubsky-Kandinsky, Lydia Masterkova, Natalia Sitnikova, Katherine Liberovskaya, Phill Niblock, Ernst Neizvestny, Dimitry Gerrman, Vasilii Bakanov, Andrew Strokov and Ivan Karpov.

*The exhibition is organized by CYLAND Media Art Lab in collaboration with the Kolodzei Art Foundation.
