Julius Von Bismarck wins first Prix Ars Electronica Collide@CERN

The first Prix Ars Electronica Collide@CERN was today awarded to the 28-year-old German artist, Julius Von Bismarck for the quality of his ideas and his ability to make playful creative collisions between the arts and science. With a growing international reputation for his diverse and experimental artistic practice, Von Bismarck was given the award by the jury for “his proposal and work which manipulates and criticises our notions of reality in unpredictable ways, often with inventive use of video, objects and public interventions”.

His works are also characterised by his fascination with complex philosophical and scientific ideas. “We’re very much looking forward to welcoming Julius Von Bismarck as our first artist in residence to CERN next year”, said CERN Director General Rolf Heuer. “This is an important step forward in our growing engagement with the arts.” “The large international participation as well as the artistic quality and inspirational power of many of the submissions are encouraging indicators that this residency program is perfectly meeting the growing interest and excitement about sciences,” said Ars Electronica Director, Gerfried Stocker.
