Guests will enjoy a variety of programming through January 2019 with many events that include activities in Aruba, Colombia , Spain, Italy, Dominican Republic and Venezuela, with the coordination of organizers: Andreina Fuentes, Adriana Barrios, Marcelo Llobell and Gerardo Zavarce.
Created in Miami in 2006 by the Arts Connection Foundation, the foundation of the Venezuelan artist and curator Andreína Fuentes, the MNMF is a multimedia festival that aims to activate diverse networks and communities of artistic practice, around the possibilities and uses of the video art and other media associated with technology. Since its creation, it has presented video installations, digital art pieces in 3D, live music and performances, of more than 250 artists from 15 countries, from different themes.
The curatorial proposal of the Miami New Media Festival 2018 is ‘Water, Heritage and Climate Change’, and has to do with Miami’s relationship with water, as it is a city close to the ocean, with beaches, navigation channels and bridges. Therefore, the curatorial committee of the Festival encouraged proposals for art and technology that work on a sensory and multidimensional approach to the symbolism of water and the way it is affected by pollution and toxic waste, according to the organizers.
