Digital art and its infinite possibilities

Digital art and its infinite possibilities

Digital art is certainly the most innovative discipline in the world of plastic arts. Many consider it the artistic expression of the future by the new creative possibilities with which, every day, it is able to surprise us.

The new technologies are put at the service of art interconnecting very diverse sectors that range from the image and the traditional photography to the most spectacular special effects. Digital art can be a painting in which we can almost immerse ourselves thanks to its 3D design, a video game in which we participate actively with virtual characters, a short animation, a photograph in which nothing is what it seems ... Creativity has no limits and with the current tools can reach where it is proposed.

Also the very concept of artist has changed radically. The traditional techniques of drawing, painting or sculpture, based mainly on the representation of reality, have been joined by breakthrough concepts such as the modeling of scenarios and characters, "interactive" objects, virtual environments or graphical interfaces that have True revolution. It could be said that the field of art and communication have finally joined new ways of expression, still unexplored, that take into account new supports: pcs, consoles, tablets, Iphones ...

This is undoubtedly the main reason why also the training related to the Art has changed, expanding horizons and offering new options that are not limited, only, to the Degree in Fine Arts. Novel studies such as the Degree in Design, Animation and Digital Art are a good example of how to learn to combine creativity with new technologies.

It is a degree that includes very diverse subjects: photography, modeling, 3D design, audiovisual narrative, communication, game desing and of course, History of Art a subject that can not miss as a source of inspiration for artists of the 21st century.

We must take into account that digital art is very present in our day to day (not only in a specific exhibition that you can see in a museum). Just think, for example, in the world of advertising and marketing, with ads, campaigns, banners, posters, short ... no one can deny that some pieces are really works of art. The same happens with the current video games, which are not surprising for their striking realism, for the quality in the detailed design of characters and "worlds" and for the capacity for interaction that they allow.

Digital producers, 2D and 3D animators, post production managers, special effects experts, advertising creatives, audiovisual content designers ... new professions that make a work based on technology, a real art.

Thank you very much.
