| Primo libro sulla vita e l’opera del duo Eva e Franco Mattes, alias 0100101110101101.ORG. Pionieri del movimento Net Art attraverso il missaggio di famosi lavori d’arte digitale hanno messo in scena Life Sharing: un autoritratto digitale in tempo reale per realizzare il quale si sono sottoposti a sorveglianza satellitare per un anno intero. Tra le loro provocanti creazioni c’è la costruzione di falsi reperti architettonici e la diffusione di un virus del loro computer per la Biennale di Venezia. |

Biografia dell'artista: Eva and Franco Mattes are the Italian
artist-provocateurs behind the infamous website
0100101110101101.ORG. Since meeting in
Madrid in 1994 they have never separated, living
a nomadic life throughout Europe and the US.
Neither of them received a proper art education.
Among the pioneers of the Net Art movement,
they are renowned for their masterful subversion
of public media. They first gained notoriety by
snagging the domain name Vaticano.org (1998)
in order to undermine the Catholic Church’s official
website. They then went on a cloning spree,
copying and remixing other artists’ works,
targeting “closed” websites, and turning private
art into public art – transforming exclusive property
into common culture.
Over time the Mattes have turned from virtual to
physical space for their surreal artistic interventions.
They caught the mainstream art world with its
pants down with the invention of Darko Maver:
this reclusive, radical artist achieved cult status and
was featured in the Venice Biennale before turning
out to be pure fiction.
Their superbly off-the-wall performances – that
have caused them several lawsuits – include
affixing fake architectural heritage plaques
(An Ordinary Building, 2006), rolling out a media
campaign for a non-existent action movie (United
We Stand, 2005) and even convincing the people
of Vienna that Nike had purchased the city’s
historic Karlsplatz and was about to rename it
“Nikeplatz” (Nike Ground, 2003).
Their art has been featured at the Venice Biennale
(2001), the Walker Art Center, Minneapolis (2001),
Manifesta, Frankfurt (2002) and in various venues
worldwide, including the New Museum, New York
(2005), Collection Lambert, Avignon (2006)
and Performa, New York (2007 and 2009). |
