For immediate release:

Stasis_Space, the online exhibition space of Stasisfield.com, has
unveiled its premiere exhibition. "con|text : an exploration of our
changing relationship to the world of words" runs 3 June through 1
July 2002. The gallery can be found at
http://www.stasisfield.com/space/.

The artists in "con|text" have each approached the issues of language
and text from wildly individual standpoints. While common themes
emerge from this body of work, "con|text" is very much the work of
eight individual artistic voices. Featured in the exhibition are
works by Wilfried Agricola de Cologne [Germany], Glenn Bach [USA],
e.g.0 [Italy], Daniel Javed [Germany], Jessica Loseby [UK], Luigia
Cardarelli [Italy], Kenric McDowell [USA] and Josh Russell [USA].

The works range from downloadable sound pieces and Flash
presentations to free font files, manipulated digital imagery and a
documented sound walk. Chicagoan John Kannenberg (the site's founder)
curated the exhibition, designed its unique presentation interface
and wrote the catalog notes.

Stasisfield.com is a free mp3 label specializing in micro melodic
experimental music. The Stasis_Space exhibition space works in tandem
with the label, presenting works of equally challenging depth and
relationship to the current digital arts movement. For more
