Kim Kretser's Company Details
Experimenta is Australia's pre-eminent media arts organisation. Experimenta showcases dynamic and challenging contemporary art that intersects with digital media, science and technology, and design. Experimenta is an incubator for experimentation, challenges convention, celebrates the maverick, and encourages collaboration.\\Established in 1986 by experimental film and video makers, Experimenta has been instrumental in the development of Australian media art from an underground cultural phenomenon to a celebrated form recognised by major cultural institutions, and growing in scope and sophistication. Melbourne based, with a national and global reach, Experimenta commissions, presents and advocates for Australian artists. Through our research, education and development programs, Experimenta deepens engagement with our existing audiences and builds new audiences and markets for media art, increasing the capacity of the cultural sector.\\To date, Experimenta has presented six editions of the Experimenta International Biennial of Media Art, with 36 artists commissioned to produce new work. This exhibition is the only international biennial to tour Australia, and presents technology-driven art to diverse audiences across the country. Alongside this program, Experimenta has presented countless exhibitions, site‐specific interventions, screenings, performances, education projects, and international exchanges. Acknowledging the rapidly changing understandings of media art, and the pervasive presence of technology in our lives, Experimenta will shift to presenting a triennial exhibition and tour in 2017. This will allow us to invest more deeply in artist and creative development processes, and present projects outside of traditional gallery contexts in non-triennial years.
