Aesthetic Dynamics
AESTHETIC DYNAMICS
Free entry│Call for Exhibition
Photographers are invited to submit 1 up to 3 photos addressing the theme.
Group Exhibition in Rome. January 2026
–
The aesthetic elaborations that turn their gaze towards formal dynamics have originated from the studies on the organic world. These have been being developed since the nineteenth century, thanks to scientific discoveries and technological inventions such as the microscope, x-rays, microphotography, etc., and all these are tools through which artists could also observe the natural world: in this cultural context Art Noveau develops as an artistic phenomenon characterized by a style that uses curved and sinuous lines to create fluid and dynamic shapes inspired by nature.
Stemming out of very different principles and cultural backgrounds, other important movements have later given wide space to studies on aesthetic dynamics, such as Futurism, a movement born during the technological boom that allowed a new perception of space and time, and a movement that, inspired above all else by the inventions in the field of communication, gave life to new aesthetics that represent a praise to speed.
The “Aesthetic Dynamics” call deals with a theme that inherits intellectual historical precepts from which, thanks to continuous scientific and technological development, it is still possible to provide new perceptions of reality.
This call welcomes photographic works with no limit of style and genre.
