What is Kaspersky's job with the Antarctic Biennale?

The Antarctic Biennale is a project initiated by the artist, sailor, and philosopher Alexander Ponomarev, who has carried out several expeditions to Antarctica. Ponomarev has organized over 100 art projects, exhibitions and events. The Antarctic Biennale aims to create a cross-cultural and multi-disciplinary platform for effective performance and communication in areas with limited p, as well as social and physical limitations – points at the borders of humanity.

Ο Eugene Kaspersky, President and Chief Executive Officer Kaspersky Lab, will participate in the first Antarctic Biennale – a creative which will bring together artists, scientists and technology visionaries from around the world to explore and create a global cultural future for Antarctica.

Η Kaspersky Lab actively supports the Antarctic Biennale project, which will transfer participants to an 12 day campaign from Argentina to Antarctica and back. Each member of the mission will be an eyewitness and a contributor to the process of creating art.

Η καλλιτεχνική αποστολή  υπό την αιγίδα της UNESCO θα αρχίσει στις 16 Μαρτίου του 2017 από την Ουσουάια, τη νοτιότερη πόλη του κόσμου, όπου οι συμμετέχοντες θα επιβιβαστούν στο ερευνητικό πλοίο «Akademik Ioffe». Κατά τη διάρκεια των αφίξεων σε διάφορες περιοχές της Ανταρκτικής, οι καλλιτέχνες θα εγκαταστήσουν προσωρινά έργα τέχνης, ή θα προβούν σε περφόρμανς. Η κινητικότητα, η αναλογικότητα προς τον χώρο, η οικολογική συμβατότητα, η καλλιτεχνική εκφραστικότητα και η εννοιολογική οξύτητα θα είναι τα θέματα αυτών των αντικειμένων τέχνης. Όλες οι εγκαταστάσεις που θα δημιουργηθούν κατά τη διάρκεια της εκστρατείας θα αποσυναρμολογηθούν και θα τοποθετηθούν πίσω στο πλοίο, για να συνεχίσουν τη «ζωή» τους σε κορυφαία and art centers of the world.

"Antarctica is the last truly free space and model for the future. In addition, according to the Antarctic Treaty (1959) and the relevant international agreements, the continent is destined exclusively for creative activities and scientific research in the interest of all mankind, "says Alexander Ponomarev, project manager, artist, sailor, and philosopher. And he continued, "Antarctica is the continent that can encourage people to think about the future of humanity and culture, providing an opportunity for creating new ways of perceiving life on the planet."

Among the artists involved in the Antarctic Biennale are Tomas Saraceno, Zhang Enli, Lara Favaretto, Matthew Ritchie and Hani Rashid.

Alexander Ponomarev believes this trip will be "A revolution that changes the course of things" because it is "a unique socio-cultural phenomenon". He comments:

“Instead of the usual national pavilions, we will face the frozen and difficult Antarctic continent. Instead of pompous apartments, we will live in ascetic cabins. Instead of chaotic creative wanderings, we will experience a combination of wonderful and once of consciousness through dialogue with scientists, futurists and technology visionaries".

Commenting on his upcoming Antarctic trip to the Antarctic Biennale, Eugene Kaspersky, Kaspersky Lab's President and Chief Executive Officer, said:

"We have supported missions in Antarctica in the past, but this will be for us the biggest project on the continent. I think it will be an exciting project and I decided to support it when I saw the genuine passion of the organizers. Antarctica is unlike any other part of the world. It is a common continent without borders, which is so beautiful and fragile in its almost uninhabitable desert. I have already visited it, and I think it is a place that provides plenty of inspiration for artistic research and expression. I'm really excited about participating in the campaign, and I look forward to all the art it will produce. ”
