Masterclass Tania Candiani “Between the archive and the laboratory”

The artist has developed a collaborative methodology with scientists that transforms the encounter between art and science into a space of productive friction. In this masterclass, she explores projects that emerged from this connection to map a way of working in which conversations with researchers, their questions, and their methods become artistic material.

Project exhibition

Presente Continuo Org ends the year with the exhibition of projects from the 2026 cohort. After a year of work, the scholarship recipients will present the projects developed during the various meetings of the program.

Content

A new phase of work has begun at the Pierre Auger Observatory in Malargüe, where artists Juan Sorrentino and Céline Manz are completing the first part of their residency. The experience is fostering an unprecedented exchange between artistic practice and scientific knowledge, laying the groundwork for a long-term relationship between the two fields. Connect Argentina is part of a collaborative agreement between Arts at CERN and Pro Helvetia, along with Presente Continuo.Org (part of the Bunge y Born Foundation and the Williams Foundation), and the Pierre Auger Observatory.

The Algorithms of Art by Daniel Canogar In his masterclass at the Andreani Foundation, he will address how the digital revolution is transforming artistic creation and perception. Drawing on his recent work, developed with algorithms and generative systems, the artist will reflect on the role of art as a tool for processing and questioning the profound social and cultural changes driven by technology. The proposal invites us to consider the creative potential of artificial intelligence and to explore how algorithmic languages ​​can expand the expressive possibilities of contemporary art. Aimed at both new media artists and creators working with traditional media, this masterclass seeks to open a space for reflection on the technological reality that defines our time. Canogar is a Spanish artist whose work explores the relationship between technology, image, and collective memory. Initially trained in photography, he evolved toward light installations and sculptures with LED screens. His most recent projects include Pulsation (Nike, Oregon, 2023), Pinceladas (DeKa Bank, Frankfurt, 2022), and Scrawl (Reina Sofía Museum, Madrid, 2023). Organized by: Bunge y Born Foundation - Williams Foundation. Supported by: Andreani Foundation - CCEBA.

Juan Cortés gave the masterclass "On Plant Policies" at CCEBA. Cortés is a Colombian artist whose work intersects art, science, and nature, focusing on invisible phenomena through installations and soundscapes. He has exhibited at institutions such as MoMA and BEC, and co-founded video and sound art festivals in Bogotá. He was a resident at CERN after winning the Collide International Award and received the PRAC Fellowship from the Colombian Ministry of Culture. In 2023, he won the Golden Nica for his work on biodiversity loss in the Eastern Plains. He is currently participating in the SOIL exhibition at Somerset House, London. In his masterclass at CCEBA, the artist presented research on how botanical classification and data systems used by global agribusiness function as colonial infrastructures that standardize plant life and erase local knowledge. Through works such as Transgenic Botany and On Vegetal Politics, artistic strategies to subvert these logics will be explored, such as rewriting seed catalogs or creating sound herbariums. Soundscaping techniques that reveal ecological damage and propose new forms of critical listening will also be addressed. Organized by: Bunge y Born Foundation - Williams Foundation. Supported by: Andreani Foundation - CCEBA.
