Flavio Scutti - comprehension http://gfxfreeerror.com/flavio-scutti.html GFX Error happens when video card starts malfunctioning and becomes unable to project the image. But does a broken image represent a fault or it's a new reality all together? Do we merely create new realities from these faults? If it's the sole truth, then what happens to those broken realities around us? Sometimes, our vision is not what it seems and it always changes when we look at visual inabilities. The Wrong is the most compelling digital art biennale today. Its mission is to create, promote and push positive forward-thinking contemporary digital art to a wider audience worldwide through a biennial event that gathers the best art selected by the best, while embraces the young international talents of today’s exciting digital art scene. http://thewrong.org/ GFX Free Error SPACE DEBRIS, The WRONG EMBASSY TURKEY @spacedebrisart Exhibition: November 21st-26th 2017 Opening Reception: November 21st, 18:30 Istanbul Time https://www.facebook.com/events/181041059112133/ Online Pavillion: November 1st, 2017 to January 31st 2018 http://gfxfreeerror.com/
