EFE - 3rd International Installation Art Festival 2018

This  year  the  3rd  Installation  Festival  EFE initiated  by E.KA.TE , shares  the  same theme  with  Larnaca  Biennale ‘'Container & Content’’ and  it  will be a parallel event.

The  Installation festival EFE is  an  idea  focusing  on the  notion  of  Site-Specific  Art and  Locational  Identity.  Referring  to  artistic  intervention  at  a  specific  location, creating  work  that  is  integrated with  its  surroundings  and  that explores  its relationship to the topography of its location, whether in or outdoors. It consists, therefore,   in   a   dialogue   between   the   artist   and   the   space.  This project encourages  the  artist  as  well  the  viewer  to  experience  an  open,  non-defined, optical/cerebral ambience.
The Installation  Art  Festival EFE aims  to  create the  opportunity  for  closer  social contacts and relationships between the broader public and the installation space as  a  visual  medium.
The  festival  aims  to  redefine familiar  spaces  and create  an enriched  viewing  experience  through  the  visual  art  propo
sal. Installation art is a complete unified   experience,  rather  than a  display of separate,  individual artworks.  The  focus  on  how  the  viewer  experiences  the  work  and  the  need  to provide a powerful experience for them is an important factor in installation art. It consists, therefore, in a dialogue between the artist and the space.
