NIL YALTER, DAVID APIKIAN & NICOLE CROISET: PIXELISMUS




PIXELISMUS Interactive CD-ROM: David Apikian, Nil Yalter and Nicole Croiset. This works takes its inspiration in the composition of mosaïcs in a byzantine church which shows many correspondances (interesting correspondance) to the esthetic notion of "pixel". Then it (accompagnies you) takes you in a journey through the works of Malevitch as well as his theories about artistic creation.

"La beauté de l'animation en 3D..." (Le Monde)

"[Pixelismus illustre] des recherches graphiques croisant les théories sprématistes de Malevitch et les mosaïques byzantines d'une église d'Istambul, qui débouchent sur un menu constructiviste et des compositions en relief." (ArtPress)
