But, what will change? For the last 14 years Feliciano develop a possible outcome for \u201cwhat\u2019s next\u201d, that he calls the Floraissance. He has developed concrete ideas of this shift, writing books and seeding the idea. The artist becomes an art-gardener, the museum an art-vivarium, and the contemporary art sprouts as the Floraissance. \n\nFeliciano also works as an artist doing photography and sculpture, but here he is applying as an art-gardener. The main difference is that an artist decides alone when his or her work becomes art (like when the painting becomes ready), and an art-gardener cultivates a project that only will become alive with a collective decision. \n\nFeliciano is here to propose, with concrete alternatives, an art mentality shift. He is not here to show a finish work of art, a beautiful painting or a conceptual art piece, but to seed ideas that can take years to sprout collectively. \n\nThe main goal of Feliciano\u2019s art practice is to cultivate the \u201cFloraissance\u201d \u2013 an idea that art is not only about the contemporary, but it\u2019s a long-term project to cultivate the \u201cflowers of tomorrow\u201d. If we reconnected with science and humanism in the Renaissance, we can reconnect with nature in the Floraissance! \n\nSpecifically for this proposal, Feliciano would like to recommend his projects \"Welcome to the Floraissance\" where he spread wood signs around town seeding this idea and inviting others to join in.","space":"This project usually happens in the public space, as fences, walls, street lights posts, or any other non-trespassing spots in town. But, it also could happen inside the exhibition space. This is an ongoing project - started 5 years ago and will follow for many others. For each new place this projects sprouts, its made a new text (possibly n Spanish) and format: could be a small sign, a wood structure around a tree, or even something bigger. This project keeps the Floraissance alive!","artists_proposal":null,"members":[],"lang":"en","status":"ok","video_link_password":null,"video_link":null,"audio_link_password":null,"audio_link":null,"images_link_password":null,"images_link":null,"cellphone":null,"description":null,"estimated_budget":null,"complementary_info":null,"fileCount":10,"names":"Andr\u00e9","surname":"Feliciano","email":"gardener@floraissance.org","dni_type":"Other","dni":"CPF 322.881.538\/22","address":"Rua Cuevas 365, S\u00e3o Paulo, SP, 05076-050, Brasil.","city":"S\u00e3o Paulo","nacionality":"Brazilian","country_id":"34","birthdate":"1984-05-04T03:00:00.000Z","birthdate_2":"1984-05-04T03:00:00.000Z","telephone":"+1(917)525-8931","web":"www.floraissance.org"}
