This original, temporary exhibition is on show at Strozzina, Florence, the Center for Contemporary Culture of Florence, in Palazzo Strozzi, from May 20 to July 17.
Virtual identities are the field of reflection of the international artists. Always being available and interacting with smart phones or sharing personal thoughts or experiences through social networks are elements common to the lives of most people today. Virtual identities enquires how digital culture is redefining the characteristics and boundaries of our identity, both personal and collective. In today’s communication society, one seems to exist only if traceable online and in the constant flow of information. Works and installations by international artists trigger a reflection on the new relationship between man and technology under the guise of the “virtual identity” with which we increasingly confront reality, at times without even realizing it.
