Pixxelpoint festival
Nov 7 2024 - Nov 17 2024 Nova Gorica, Gorizia
One of the most established and longest running Slovenian festivals of contemporary artistic practices, the 25th annual Pixxelpoint will explore the potential of fiction to reconstitute a relationship with a world ravaged beyond repair.
It will feature an international exhibition across four venues, an experimental discursive programme, an audiovisual and musical programme, a podcast series, commissioned writings, and workshops.
This edition of the festival borrows its name from the main exhibition, Speculation and Decay, curated by Maja Burja and hosted by the Nova Gorica City Gallery, Agorè Gallery, Tir Gallery and Carinarnica, featuring ten artists and artist groups from five European countries.
Some of the issues it plans to delve into include the potential of liminal forms of subjectivity, how narratives about the past, present and future can be effectively reprogrammed, whether inter-generational dialogue can prevent the past from falling into ruin and enable the present to speculate on new visions of the future, and how traditional, binary dichotomies can be effectively addressed by a cultural event?
