This exhibition showcases artists and designers who engage in
abstracting realities through mapping data structures and constructing
worlds. Visual data, urban planning for remote countries and
cartographic methodologies will be exhibited. Collectively, these
artists provide insight into overlapping realities of the real and the
virtual. Curated by Kristin Trethewey + Victoria Keddie.
Artists: Robert Pietrusko, Jon Rafman, Ingo Gunther, Katja Loher, Igal Nassima
Opening: August 11, 2011: 6-8PM
Closing: August 25, 2011: 6-8PM
This event is part of the Index Festival (August 3-28, 2011)
The Index Festival will transpire in August 2011 in New York City. Our aim is to bring together individuals and groups who cognitively engage
media culture. We welcome the interdisciplinary, shared and
accessible culture we are coming to live in as a result of digital
technology. Our mission is to focus on projects that blur the
vocabulary of science and art, dissect the media that describes our
culture today, and to disseminate out from the [cultural] institution,
and further into the multi textural international landscape.
