ARGENTINEAN ARTIST AMALIA ULMAN RECEIVED THE MAIN PRIZE OF THE 1^ST FRASE GOT TALENT PRIZE

Stefano Cozzi (Italy) and Veronica De Giovanelli (Italy) are respectively the winners of the 2^nd and 3^rd prize

The Future Ahead, a video essay firstly exhibited in the solo show The Destruction Of Experience (Evelyn Yard, London), is a faux documentary on Justin Bieber’s forehead, a pseudo medical paper that explains how expression marks and forehead lines are being appropriated from women to become a gendered trait as signifiers of experience -and therefore masculinity.

It follows the aesthetics of previous video essays such as Buyer, Walker, Rover and continues the same conversation on objects, value and trends, while adapting these topics to the physicalites of the flesh.

FRASE GOT TALENT award aims to encourage the talent of young artists who have distinguished themselves through creative originality and critical interest in the world of visual arts.

The theme of the Award on which the artists are called to express their creativity is
accelerated culture
