Abelardo Gil Fournier

Abelardo G. Fournier is an artist and researcher. His work addresses the materiality of the visible, tackling in particular the relation between the digital mediation and the production and ordering of everyday landscapes. His practice is based on the elaboration of platforms -installations, devices and workshops- conceived as open mechanisms, where art, knowledge and politics intersect.

Some of his work has been developed in artist residencies in El Ranchito / Matadero (Madrid), Laboral Center of Art (Gijón) and the spanish broadcast television Canal+, or as commissions of institutions such as CROMAFest in Mexico DF or the open hardware company Ultra-lab. His projects have been shown in international exhibitions and festivals and reviewed in mainstream blogs on art and digital culture.

He is currently a PhD student at the Winchester School of Art, University of Southampton, part of the AMT Archaeologies of Media and Technology Research Group and part time instructor at the European University of Madrid.
