The effect of the development of the digital technology within the theatre, the video and the graphic art. |
Imitating the reality has been for centuries, in the field of art, the principal target of artists in all the fields of the artistic expressions. Aristotle, in the Poetic, speaks about mimesis. His influence in the field of art, of philosophy and science has set the lines guide of the western culture for many centuries. In the earliest decades of the 18th century the western artistic thought changes, it is not tied to the concept of the imitation anymore, a new conception breaks out, it is the conception of expression. Aesthetic is born.
The artwork is not created from the artist as the phenomenical reality is created from the nature, there is not anymore a relationship between the artwork and the world’s shapes, but there is a strict relationship between the artist and his own artworks.
This process still continues and involves the means that technology and science put on hand. |

Digital art |
The digital art is the last stage of technological evolution begun in the 18th century with the invention of photography. Now every source, medium, audio, video, pictures can be transformed in digital form and transposed in the computer and can be elaborated. The aim of the show "Percorsi Digitali" is to show to a public, that is not necessarily expert, the impact that the development of computer science and the digital technologies has had about arts, taking directly in consideration the fields of “theatre”, of “video” and in the field of the “images elaboration”. |

Theatre |
The use of special effects or to project a movie on a screen is not new in theatre, already Eisenstein in the beginning of the last century used in theatre the movie projection during stage playing.
The digital technology has opened the field to new possibilities and experimentations beyond the special effects and the video projections. Now it is possible a creative integration between audio, video and theatrical action to the point to create a virtual subject playing in real time on the stage with the actors. |

Video |
The impact of the digital technology has surely been stronger within cinema. Special effects, animation, virtual environments, here the use of the digital technology is the rule.
Another important effect that the digitalis has had is to reduce drastically the production costs. Moreover it has lowered the post-production costs yet. The production of video or animations of professional quality and of elevated artistic quality can be realized also without having the high budgets of the industrial productions provided that one has the artistic sensibility and the necessary skills in the use of the computer. |

Graphics |
More and more powerful computers and improvements of software for the graphical elaboration 2d (bitmap and vectorial) and 3D have opened an enormous space of possibilities for images elaboration. We can say that the development of scanners 3D and 3D printers in the field of sculpture too. A new generation of artists is born. It is the generation of "Digital Artists". The Digital Artists are those that use the computer in decisive manner to produce their works of art. |
