The Centro Cultural Pablo de la Torriente Brau, with the support of the

about computer-based technologies in inventive and original ways.

The annual event, which opens on June 17, 2002, exhibits work that
represents the current field of digital art in Cuba and abroad, and
convenes a series of meetings and discussions to encourage exchange and
reflection among designers, artists, critics and scholars whose
work is related to these new forms of expression.

The exhibition has two juried components a competitive exhibition of the
work of resident Cuban artists, and an international exhibit,
where the work of non-Cuban residents will be shown. Work selected by a
jury of well-known artists and critics will be exhibited in the
Sala Majadahonda of the Centro Pablo, galleries of the Oficina del
Historiador de la Ciudad, and in the Museo Nacional de Bellas Artes.

The International Colloquium Digital Art Languages and Poetics will take
place from June 18 - June 21. In addition to discussions

critics will make presentations about the potentials and the limits
of these new forms of artist expression, addressing the following themes
