(2001) People Against Things (2001) up to King Kong After (2006), for the first time on display in Rome in the Manetas Room: 11 videogame art works to retrace ten years of one of the major precursors of this artistic genre, Miltos Manetas, from 1997 to 2006. Pioneer of videogame art, he explored the complex relationship between man and video game, sensing and anticipating the new contemporary aesthetic. His work also develops through more traditional means, such as painting: the joystick is painted on canvas. Manetas studies the relationship between man and his time in the information society: cables, consoles, joysticks, computer mouse, are represented as the protagonists on the scene, in workplaces or in apartments, intentionally anonymous, in which men , women, children interact with technology. In the Manetas’s room two large old-fashioned televisions will transmit images that trace the history of the canvases and tell this post-human approach, anticipated by the artist, who in his vision has been able to interpret and read contemporary society. A desk station will also allow you to interact with another work by the artist: "Jackson Pollock by Manetas". This work was defined by Time as one of the top 50 internet sites in the world. By moving the mouse, the visitor can create his personal artistic sketch, accompanied by music tracks.

The review also offers thematic insights. • Video game and food aesthetics: since their first years of life, video games have put food at the center of their imagination: sweets, slices of cake and delicacies of all kinds appear very often; there are games with a gastronomic setting and theme, such as Burger Time, Food Fight, Pierre the Chef is ... Out to Lunch and 3 Kitchen Panic. More recently, authentic cooking games have taken hold (Ore No Ryouri and Yakiniku Bogyo in the 1990s, the successful "Cooking Mama" series in the 2000s). The review focuses on the birth and articulation of the link between video games and cuisine, trying to highlight how food strongly characterizes the aesthetics of two-dimensional action games, from the 1980s to the present day. The Treccani Institute, in this section, shows Artusi Cooking time: a fun interpretation in a videogame key of the most curious and famous recipes of the Italian gastronomist par excellence, Pellegrino Artusi. • The evolution of the species told by video games from the 16-bit era to the early 2000s Regarding the relationship between video game and science, a selection of titles delves into the theme of the evolution of the species and the struggle for survival under different profiles. The retrogaming review will highlight the changing balance between Darwinist influence and the developer's free creativity, which sometimes starts from science to create fantasy or science fiction narrative systems (exemplary in this sense is the case of E.V.O .: Search For Eden). • Art and video game: the progressive development and refinement of a virtual iconography The videogame is capable of expressiveness and soon the designers realized it: Lionheart, Agony, Flink, Adventures of Lomax present a western aesthetic research, entirely based on the harmony of the forms. LSD Dream Emulator opens the doors to synaesthetic experiments and to free roaming games, ICO and Shadow of the Colossus are the videogame incarnation of the sublime aesthetic category.
