ART EXHIBITS> ART@Hilton is a series of art exhibitions at the Hilton Molino Stucky Venice and curated by Giudecca 795 Art Gallery, which presents projects and emerging artists of great interest and whose work has a special connection to Venice. The programme includes six exhibitions that will take place during 2013, timed to invite guests arriving at the Hilton Molino Stucky to a "full immersion" in the atmosphere of today’s Venice, also in proximity to great events such as Carnival, the Art Biennale and the Venice Film Festival. These particular perspectives are those by artists who have known Venice initially as travelers, and ended up choosing the city as their place of the heart and work, and making it a focal point in their artistic and personal growth. The exhibition traces a path to an adventure through the present and in history, starting with the festive and surreal vision of Oliviero Dall'Asta, almost a Venetian travel diary laid on the canvas, the wonder of a day spent walking in the city’s long imagined calli.
Harbisson is an artist and musician, born in Belfast in 1982, whose colour blindness allows him to see only shades of gray. He is the first person ever to wear an Eyeborg (a cybernetic eye, developed in collaboration with a researcher from the University of Barcelona) that "translates" colours into sounds and vice versa. An exciting project, which Harbisson presented successfully around the world: the artist creates "sound portraits" of faces, and "Sonochromatics", corresponding to musical scores in colour. In a word, it is cyber-art, which we presented in Venice last year during the Visual Arts Biennale. Now he launches Cyber Venezia, a project whose first chapter is The Sound of Burano: that is, he began to explore the colourful houses on the island of Burano, extracting the sounds “produced” by their colors.
