2012 Theme: Heritage and Modernity

We live in the world of new images, an elusive reality and unexplored opportunities. Each day we are introduced to new phenomena in hybrid forms of art: web theatre, cyber-space cinema, tactical and interactive media. Every day we provide new ways of seeing the world and actual interpretation of reality. New technologies make work with a cultural heritage much more modern and experiment as well as contemporary art practices. It enables a completely different way to present classical artwork of painting, architecture and other arts. It designs new structure and logic of the exhibition, makes the museum interactive and interdisciplinary with the help of new media, bring it to the virtual world, etc. Museum becomes not only as a place of preservation and exhibition of some artifact, but also a place of educational and socio-cultural platform, where the main priority is to create a qualitatively different environment for the audience.
