*Is it even possible to have art shows in such widely separated venues all at once? Looks like the death of globalization has been oversold.
Yes I own all the Carla Gannis work on SeditionArt. So, sue me
As you may have read in our recent news post, throughout August Carla Gannis’ artwork Portraits in Landscape is on display in New York’s Times Square. Inspired by the work of Giuseppe Arcimboldo, the digital video features two animated figures made from emojis, moving through emoji-fied landscapes, and is “a continuation of [Gannis’] focus on combining eccentric art-historical references with visual smartphone language.”
Midnight Moment is one stop in a packed summer schedule of exhibitions for Gannis, who has two concurrent exhibitions in New York alone, plus group exhibitions in Berlin, Dusseldorf, Saskatchewan, Santa Fe, Hull and Ljubljana.
As well as showing in Times Square, Portraits in Landscape is on show in both single-channel and three-channel formats in a group exhibition at HARVESTWORKS at Governors Island, New York until 21 October. The TEAM Lab: Artworks and Experiences 2018 is presented by TECHNE_Lab and The Streaming Museum and features the work of the TECHNE lab of the university of Colorado, Michael Theodore, Ryan Wurst, Laura Kim, Michael Lee and Amerika. A further opportunity to see Gannis’ work on the big screen can be found in Berlin, where works by Gannis, Driessens & Verstappen and Manuel Roßner are featured on the vast LED screen at Potsdamer Platz in a display curated by DAM Gallery.
Until 19 August Gannis is part of Art and Artificial Intelligence Today at Pendoran Vinci, NRW-Forum, Dusseldorf, Germany alongside Nora Al-Badri & Jan Nikolai Nelles, Jonas Blume, Justine Emard, Sofian Audry and Erin Gee, Liat Grayver, Faith Holland, Tuomas A. Laitinen, and William Latham. The exhibition is curated by Tina Sauerlaender and Peggy Schoenegge of peertospace and features Gannis’ Non-Facial Recognition Project.
Also until 19 August is STOP AND GO at MGLC – International Centre of Graphic Arts in Ljubljana, Slovenia. This exhibition focuses on the GIF, bringing together gif artworks by 9 artists: Gannis, Bill Domonkos, Zack Dougherty, Roberto Fassone, Nika Ham, Lorna Mills, Okkult Motion Pictures, Chiara Passa and James Kerr (Scorpion Dagger). Carla Gannis shows her project The Garden of Emoji Delights, work from which is also available as a digital edition on Sedition.
Until 17 September at the Dunlop Art Gallery in Regina, Saskatchewan... (((etc etc)))
