Nanoart: first steps beyond the columns of Hercules

We are, at the beginning of an extreme fascinating and adventurous travel into the nanoartworld. What is nanotechnology? How it works? How we can use it? - and most important- How Art can use it?
In the beginning the scientific community looked at me, a contemporary art curator, like a funny thing, an original disfuction in a complex system. "Why nanotechnology are involved in art?" they ask me several times. I strictly believe that nanotechnologies like other technologies can represent a new tool and a new way to create art.
I am interested on art and on the consequences that Nanotech could apport on it.
What means created nanoartworks? How we can define Nanoart? Who are artists interested in? How they use it?
This blog aims to be a real-time reporter on nanoart and nanoartists, a space ship travelling beyond the columns of Hercules, where whispers and screams are been heard by someone.
