Stasera: SLIDELUCK POTSHOW Roma!

Martedì, 22 Aprile: SLIDELUCK POTSHOW Roma
SLIDELUCK POTSHOW ROMA

Per la prima volta a Roma – Martedì 22 aprile dalle ore 18:30 presso il MakeNoise in Associazione con Gruppo Mercurio, in via Assisi 113.

Otto anni fa nasceva lo SlideLuck PotShow fondato da Casey Kelbaugh – fotografo editoriale e pubblicitario che nel cortile di casa sua a Seattle, tiene la prima edizione dell’evento. In quella occasione a prendere parte all’evento furono in 120, l’ultima serata a NYC ha superato le 1000 persone. L’obbiettivo della serata è quello di promuovere la creatività e il confronto, tutti i partecipanti hanno lo stesso spazio, dal professionista rinomato al giovane talento.

L’iniziativa consiste in una serata di proiezioni, l’evento è gratuito e chiunque è invitato a portare vino e/o cibo da condividere con gli altri, il nome della manifestazione artistica nasce infatti dall’incrocio delle due parole inglesi potluck (pasto condiviso) e slideshow (proiezione di diapositive).

La serata per la prima volta a Roma è preceduta dalla data milanese il 19 aprile. L’iniziativa famosa in tutto il mondo è sostenuta e supportata da grandi nomi del mondo della comunicazione e della fotografia e da illustri case di produzione e agenzie fotografiche. Pittori, collezionisti, designers, scultori, curatori ed editori mostrano il loro lavoro in una atmosfera rilassata e creativa per uno scambio di idee. Ogni SlideShow ha una durata massima di cinque minuti.

Lo Slideluck Potshow vanta tra i partecipanti passati: Elliott Erwitt, Chris Buck, Alec Soth, Martin Schoeller, Doug Menuez, Alex Majoli, Alistair Thain, Bruce Gilden, e Eugene Mirman, David Hurn, Robert Doisneau, Guggenheim Foundation e Magnum Foundation. Lo Slideluck e’ stato ospitato nelle passate edizioni in location del calibro dello Snap Productions Studios a Londra o del Chelsea Art Museum a New York.

Nel contesto di questo evento internazionale abbiamo il piacere di avere la presenza del World Food Programme con le Nazioni Unite, il quale illustrera’ la sua recente campagna di sensibilizzazione dal nome “Fill The Cup”, insieme ad uno slideshow delle immagini piu’ significative dei bamibini nel mondo. L’ obbiettivo e’ dare un pasto al giorno a tutti i bambini bisognosi che vanno a scuola.

I partecipanti sono incoraggiati ad intraprendere rischi creativi in termini di contenuto e presentazione. Ogni Slideshow ha una sessione con tematica ed allo stesso tempo a libera interpretazione. Gli SlideShows sono raccolti e curati in anticipo. Multimedia presentations, assieme a Slideshows con musica e commento, sono benvenute.

SLIDELUCK POTSHOW ROME

First time ever in Rome – Tuesday April 22nd starting 06.30pm
MakeNoise in Association with Gruppo Mercurio at the MakeNoise, Via Assisi 113

Slideluck Potshow was founded eight years ago by Casey Kelbaugh a renowned editorial and advertising photographer. He started for the first time in his own home garden in Seattle at that time only 120 persons participated; at his last event in New York he and Co-Director Alys Kenny, had a participation of over 1000 persons.

The objective is to promote creativity and to provide a forum for confrontation between creative minds; in fact each presenter has the same amount of time to present their work or projects. The artists range from experienced professionals to young emerging talents.

The event consists in a soiree where participants submit their work or projection on a large screen. Participants and invitees are to bring some food and drink to share; in fact this artistic event is named “Slideluck Potshow” by the combination of two words, potluck (meal for a large group, to which participants bring foods to be shared) and slideshow.
