VíctorPiano / Víctor Ernesto Gutiérrez Cuiza [CL] 1991, is a Composer and Multimedia Artist based in Hamburg. His instrumental compositions engage in dialogue with electroacoustic elements, light, animation, dance, theatre, programming, and generative music looking for connections between complex structures and an intimate worldview.
Different topics are targeted within his work, but a cross-cutting idea is the relationship between individuals and the broader community: whether it involves language, energies, culture, constellations, or critiques of capitalism, every reflection stems from an understanding and respect for both the individual and the society we are constructing.
Victor has studied music, programming and instrumental and multimedia composition with: Georg Hajdu, Alexander Schubert, Gordon Kampe, Andrés Maupoint, Andrés Ferrari, Jacob Sello, John MacCallum, Rama Gottfried, Jorge Pepi, Ximena Ugalde, Karina Glasinovic.
He works as a composer but also as a performer. He is a founding member of “GlitterBox collective” (DE), “Chromatic Noise Collection” (DE), “Atok” (CL), “Canto Crisol” (CL) and “YNFB” (DE).
His music has been performed in several festivals and venues (selection): Prix Annelie de Man (Amsterdam), Reimagining the Lied (Heimathafen Neukölln, Berlin), MS. ARTVILLE (Hamburg), Blurred Edges (Hamburg), Luft und Wasser (with the Berliner Symphoniker, Berlin), rC3 chaostrawler (MS. Stubniz, Hamburg), Symphony in the Elbtunnel (Hamburg), Festival de Música Contemporánea Universidad de Chile (Santiago de Chile), Prismas – primaveras latinoamericanas (Santiago de Chile and Buenos Aires).
