[艺术家介绍]
“在Nicolai的作品中,音乐和视觉艺术都不是对方的副产品,而是一种相互依托、由此及彼的关系。” —— Rob Young,现代画家,2006
柏林视觉/电子艺术家Carsten Nicolai以noto和alva noto为艺名,进行表演并发行唱片。Nicolai的现场演出具有超强的听觉、视觉震撼力,结合了Minimal电子声音与实时视觉艺术装置,被称为“最美妙的金属机器音乐” 。Nicolai作品的迷人之处就在于它们的优雅与简单,和对技术主义的完美呈现。
Carsten Nicolai在世界上最富盛名的音乐厅、博物馆和俱乐部做现场表演,并多次参加国内外美术馆、博物馆及公共收藏的个展或群展。他的音乐与艺术作品为他带来了许多极具影响力的艺术或电子音乐的奖项与奖金, 如罗马Villa Massimo奖(2007)、苏黎世奖(2007)、洛杉矶Villa Aurora奖(2007)、林茨电子艺术大奖金尼卡奖(2001/2002)、德累斯顿F6-Phillip Morris视觉艺术奖。他在与池田亮司、Mika Vainio、阪本龙一等音乐人的合作中,以及与Olaf Bender、Frank Bretschneider建立的先锋组合Singal的实践中,进一步探索了声音的身体性。作为一位著名的视觉艺术家,Carsten还创作绘画,物件及装置。
Carsten Nicolai于1965年出生于原东德的卡尔马克思市,现工作生活于柏林。1984他完成了园艺学课程,成为了一名园艺师。1985至1990年,他在德累斯顿学习环境设计。1992年在开姆尼茨创立VOXXX文化传播公司。1994年,他创立了noton.archiv für ton und nichtton,并在1999年与raster music合并,成为了最有地位的厂牌——raster-noton。
