        "rendered": "<p class=\"\"><strong>Carsten H\u00f6ller<\/strong>\u00a0(Brussels, 1961) is an artist known for his interactive works that explore perception, play and sensory experience, creating installations that actively engage the public.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">In 2009, he participated in the project <a href=\"https:\/\/artecontinua.org\/en\/project\/arte-pollino\/\"><b><em>Arte Pollino<\/em> <\/b><\/a>with <a href=\"https:\/\/artecontinua.org\/en\/project\/rb-ride-carsten-holler-san-severino-lucano\/\"><b><em>RB Rid<\/em><em>e<\/em><\/b><\/a>, a large, very slow-moving Ferris wheel installed in San Severino Lucano, in the Pollino National Park, a work that transformed time and the perception of space through a drawn-out and meditative experience.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">In 2015, he was one of the main figures in the second edition of the project <a href=\"https:\/\/artecontinua.org\/en\/project\/axva-ii-edizione\/\"><em>ArtexVino = Water<\/em><\/a>, creating the label for <em>Allegrini, Amarone della Valpolicella Classico D.O.C.G.<\/em>, joining their artistic language to the winemaking tradition. Also in 2015, they participated in a project for <a href=\"https:\/\/artecontinua.org\/en\/project\/rb-ride-carsten-holler-san-severino-lucano\/\"><strong>Venice Biennale<\/strong><\/a>, confirming his role as an experimenter in contemporary art.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">In 2021, they generously donated the work <em>Laboratory (Alexander Shulgin)<\/em> for the project <a href=\"https:\/\/artecontinua.org\/en\/arte-per-la-riforestazione\/\"><strong><em>Art for Reforestation<\/em><\/strong><\/a>, reaffirming his commitment to environmental and sustainability initiatives. With his visionary and playful approach, H\u00f6ller continues to challenge the boundaries between art, science, and sensory experience.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Carsten H\u00f6ller<\/strong> (Brussels, 1961) German by origin, he lives and works in Stockholm. Having established himself in the art world in the 1990s, he has exhibited in important international institutions with numerous solo and group shows. H\u00f6ller conceives of art as a cognitive tool and uses his works to transform individuals' sensory and emotional experience. He aims to disorient and provoke the viewer, altering traditional perceptual mechanisms. At first glance, the characteristic of his works is their ironic and playful aspect, but behind the innocent appearance, H\u00f6ller introduces elements of doubt and uncertainty, capable of changing the ordinary perception of things. He creates situations or experiences that invite the public to actively participate.<\/p>",
