This year Soros Center for Contemporary Art (Moscow) opened its site
(www.sccamoscow.ru), where the Center has placed its database on Russian
contemporary art. Starting from September, 1, 1997 Soros Center for
Contemporary Art will open one more address in Internet
(www.da-da-net.ru), this will help to organize the Festival of Russian
Art Resources. The Festival "Da-da-net" will take place in
November-December 1997. The aim of this competition is to reveal
creative possibilities of Russian users. We also would like to invite
the users from the Community of Independant States-former Soviet
Republics - as subjects of the cultural space, which had been
indivisible not so long ago.
Taking into account that Russian Internet art-association only starts
its work nowadays, the range of artists involved is not so wide, the
notion of Internet art-projects is not so broadly-spread, we would like
to draw to the projects the attention of various participants, not only
professional artists.
This project is a logical continuation of Moscow New Media Art
Laboratory, which was organised by Soros Center for Contemporary Art
(Moscow) in 1994, in the frame of which were held "NewMediaLogia"
symposium and "NewMediaTopia" exhibition.
We would like to invite you to participate in this competition as an
international jury. Nominations of the festival are not limited by
solely art web projects, but also include Russian informational
resources (cultural) and educational resources as well.
To get more detailed information about this project, please contact
festival's supervisors Ms Olga Shishko (newart@aha.ru) and Ms Tatiana
Mogilevskaya (tanusha@aha.ru).
We wish you all the best.
We hope for your cooperation and help in our projects.

Olga Shishko
Tatiana Mogilevskaya


P.S. Would you please send us your biography and reference for your work
in Internet.
We would like to present you our catalogue
"NewMediaLogia/NewMediaTopia", but we need your home address.
