The International Art + Tech Fest debuts at the Fort Mason Center, San Francisco in April of 2017: an explosion of visionary, original new work by artists and creators from around the world. Virtual reality, robotics, teleimmersion and more converge in a celebration of the imagination set spinning by possibility.
We will be accommodating 33,000 people over a long weekend, showcasing performances and exhibitions of an extraordinary nature.
In recent years, faster computing and ingenious coding have made creative work possible that is poetic and expressive, that can startle us with its ingenuity and beauty. Artists and creators making this groundbreaking new work come together for the first time, sharing with us big-energy events for the large stage, as well as work experienced “hand on” and up close. Both outdoor and indoor events include immersive experiences: imaginative, constructed realities that are magical and immediate. World class art direction and stage direction create a powerful and theatrical environment, a revelation of the fundamental wonder, strangeness, and surprise of our world. We have a grand ambition for the SF Art + Tech Fest, embracing the ecstatic capacity of human creativity.
