Version>06 Parallel Cities

Posted April 28, 2006 by in Political Art

Version fest held annually in Chicago focuses on emerging discourses and practices evolving between art, technology, social critique and activism. Version Fest examines local systems and external networks that use visual and conceptual art strategies, innovative social practices, creative uses of new technologies, effective organizing structures, emerging activist/artist initiatives, campaigns, public interventions and DIY projects. This year Version Fest runs from April 20th through May 7th.

The Version Festival presents a diverse program of activities featuring an experimental art exposition, artistic disturbances, exhibitions, networked urban events, screenings, interactive applications, performances, street art, presentations, talks, workshops, an art rendezvous and action. Alternative spaces will be open for staging actions. Public spaces and corporate places will be terrains of intervention. Version is a seventeen-day open laboratory to activate our communities and amplify ideas and practices.
