A PRESENTATION ON CYBERFEMINISM BY KATE VASS
Cyberfeminism emerged in the early 1990s, right after the arrival of the internet. The concept isn’t easy to describe with a single definition. It represents an international group of female thinkers, coders and media artists who are all interested in theorizing, critiquing, exploring and re-making the Internet, cyberspace and new-media technologies, which are free from social constructs.

OPENING OF NOISE MEDIA ART FAIR, ISTANBUL, 17TH JANUARY
Since its establishment in 2017 in Switzerland, Kate Vass Galerie has positioned itself at the forefront of generative and new media art. The gallery has been showcasing a blend of physical and digital artworks from internationally established and emerging artists. At the NOISE Media Art Fair, the gallery presents mixed media artworks by acclaimed local and international artists like Memo Akten, Emre Meydan, David Young, Mario Klingemann, and Kevin Abosch. The exhibition features a diverse range of installations, live performances, video works, prints, and plotter drawings, created using technologies from advanced AI to traditional methods like plotter machines. This array of works offers an immersive experience where art and technology intersect, opens a dialogue on socio-political themes, ecological concerns, and the role of technology in art. Each artwork is a unique exploration of how these artists perceive and reinterpret the world through the lens of technology.
We’re happy to present that K011 will also have its own booth, presenting works by Alice Gordon, Ivona Tau and the project Post Human Cinema.
