Digital prints, an interactive
sound grid, neon sculpture, kinetics, generative music. These
are the arts at the turn-of-the-millennium. Those familiar with
the Internet experience technological
media all the time, but collectors, museums, and galleries are
beginning to appreciate the growing use of technological media
in the fine arts. The Beachwood Arts Council presents Through
the Looking Glass, a survey of the creative potential within
current technological advances. The gallery show featured mixed-media
'paintings', CD-ROM installations, neon sculptures and interactive
sound environments. And with the closure of the gallery exhibition
on April 30, the online portion of the exhibiton becomes central,
located at http//www.voyd.com/ttlg where the works of over 80
of the world's most prominent gallery and Internet artists with
noted cultural theorists will be featured. In addition, the
online component includes a virtual recreation of the Beachwood
Center for the Arts gallery and "exhibits", allowing visitors
to see the layout of the physical exhibition.
Additional plans may include an
online forum to discuss issues of contemporary art practice
in technological media, contingent on response to the exhibit.
Curator Patrick Lichty is a conceptual
media artist and cultural theorist whose solo and collaborative
works have been presented at the Walker Art Center, New York
Digital Salon, ZKM Karlsruhe and the Whitney Biennial. He brings
noted artists such as Mark Amerika, Natalie Bookchin, Shu Lea
Cheang, David Crawford, Jerry Domokur, and Roman Verostko with
critics Steve Dietz, Alex Galloway, Lev Manovich, and Eugene
Thacker to the Through the Looking Glass site, making it the
first of its kind at the Beachwood gallery and the forst of
its kind in the Cleveland area.
