CIFRA, a curated streaming platform for new media art, launches an open
call celebrating Marco Polo’s figure and journey. Regarded as one of the
pioneers in building bridges between East and West, we should not forget
the influence of his travels and travelogues on the state of the world we
live in, with European colonial expansion and capitalist globalization.
As part of the open call, three artists will receive the CIFRA Award of
1500 EUR for producing a new work. The CIFRA Award will include three
nominations: “Bridging East and West, North and South”, “New Ways of
Seeing”, and “(Re)thinking the Media”.
The shortlisted works will be shown during Art Night Venezia, which will
take place on 22 June 2024.
