festival-fair · 2026-04-27

The 2020 Share Festival, titled "Riots. Here We Are," takes place at Toolbox in Turin from September 17 to 20, coinciding with the Torino Maker Faire. Bruce Sterling, the artistic director, emphasizes the festival's emphasis on kinetic art, device art, net.art, software art, and AI-generated creations. The event features two main exhibitions: Share Prize XIII, which presents six international artists chosen from over 150 applicants by a jury that includes Roberta Bosco and Sterling, and Artmaker4, where artists utilize tools from an Artmaker Bag. Key participants are Apotropia and Laura Viale. Scheduled discussions include a panel on "Pussy Riots" on September 19 and an AI-focused talk on September 20. Additional highlights include a video tribute to Alessandro Amaducci and a GIF exhibition by students from Accademia Albertina.
