International Festival for Arts, Sciences and Technologies
November 2007 -The ENTER festival is now both more radical and universal at the same time. Besides keeping an eye on technological developments in art and their intersections with science, the festival has become more political, sharing interest in social context as well as the history and future of humans. Still, a focus on the role of science in all these issues remains. What are the influences and their directions? Is art working for science, or science for art?

ENTER3 on the one hand introduces/presents an emerging generation of artists who are entering science labs, working and living on computer networks daily, as well as explores scientific theories and theories of artistic “avant-gardes”.
On the other hand, the festival introduces for the first time on the international level, a retrospective exhibition of Frank J. Malina, a renowned pioneer of light kinetic art, but also a rocket engineer and founder of Leonardo journal which has created one of the first communities of artists and scientists working together.
CIANT joined Leonardo, Hexagram and Pépinières européennes pour jeunes artistes in order to organise an international conference MutaMorphosis which aims to challenge arts and sciences while focusing on extreme environments.
