Subvert the dominant paradigm (and build a better world while you're at it)

Today is the last day of The Wrong - New Digital Art Biennale Version 3 and what a buzz it has been! I am absolutely stoked to have been a small part of it, not just because it is the largest art event in world history, not just because it challenges notions of what art is and where it should be seen, not just because it is inclusive where unknowns like myself can rub shoulders with established practitioners and everyone in between, and certainly not because it is a trendy thing to do. It might be tempting to see The Wrong as simply about technology, and sure much of the art either refers to it or uses it as the preferred method of delivery, but there is an underlying humanity that pervades the Pavilions and Embassies where artists have melded science and creativity to comment on the direction of our society and the threats to our freedom of thought and expression. In doing so The Wrong is more about community, and the experience for those not only involved as participants but as audience has enabled people to reach out across a troubled world and feel like they are part of something not only special, but important. The event is also somewhat political. It hovers over the traditional power structures within the art world, not in an attempt to replace them but pointing out in some cases how anachronistic they have become, and to offer an alternative to those people who would otherwise never have had the opportunity to become engaged. The Wrong is not a pointer to the future. It is the art of NOW. To David Quiles Guillo and his crew for setting the whole thing up and Sava Zolog and his for the Prosthetic Pavilion I dips me lid. And, I can't wait for the next one!

Prosthetic Pavilion: The Wrong - New Digital Art Biennale


The Prosthetic Pavilion is a part of The Wrong - New Digital Art Biennale which launched on November 1st 2017 and runs until the end of January 2018. The Wrong is the largest and most comprehensive digital art biennale today. A global event aiming to display digital culture, open to participation, and spreading its content through online and offline locations around the world.

The Wrong’s mission is to create, promote and push positive forward-thinking contemporary digital art to a wider audience worldwide through a biennial event that gathers an extensive selection of digital artworks, while embraces via its exclusive instant radical inclusion trademark technique; the young artists and curators of today’s exciting digital art scene.

The online biennale happens in pavilions; virtual curated spaces in any online accessible media where selected artworks are exhibited. The offline biennale happens in embassies; art spaces, galleries, institutions and artist run spaces in cities around the world which feature temporary projects, featuring live performances, workshops, artist talks and exhibitions. The Wrong is free to participate and to attend, and mostly everything is one click away.

For its third edition there are +80 curators confirmed, more than +1.100 artists are to show their talent, and the attendance is expected to grow up to +12M unique visitors worldwide.
