| | Perpetual Art Machine presents The Future Was Then [PART2] Regurgitating Histories Please join us in the SCOPE BASEL VIP Lounge to celebrate Perpetual Art Machine's first show in the elite fine art landscape of Basel Switzerland and to commemorate the video art legend Nam June Paik. Paik was credited over thirty years ago with coining the phrase “The future is now”. [PAM] asks what that means today in our rapidly changing world by re-presenting an ambitious program of five specially curated video projects originally organized for Scope New York 2008 by Jarrett Gregory, Robert Adanto, Yiannis Colakides and Helene Black, Andrew Erdos in addition to the newest incarnation of the [PAM] installation and a specially curated section by [PAM] founders Chris Borkowsky, Raphaele Shirley and Lee Wells. Special thanks to Scope Art Fairs, NeME.org, and IFAC. SCOPE Basel - June 3-8 2008 Uferstrasse 80 CH-4057 Basel Switzerland.

Video Synthesis at QCC Art Gallery |
| Video Synthesis Artists Include: Danielle Abrams, John Fekner, Darren Foster, Simon Gris, Ray Neufeld, Ryan Seslow, Monica Spier, and Lee Wells. Curated by Ryan Seslow QCC Art Gallery The City University of New York Queensborough Community College May 1 - July 31, 2008 http://videosynthesisqcc.blogspot.com Video Synthesis Blog site http://www.qcc.cuny.edu/ArtGallery/Programs/Exhibits/videoSynthesis Video Synthesis Official site on The QCC Art Gallery Web site "Video Synthesis” is an examination of the Inter-relationships of Video Art, Performance, Experimental Film, & Vanguard Documentary. The purpose of this exhibition is to survey, expose, and raise the awareness of motion related art through the medium of video. The works exhibited have all been created using a digital video camera and computer based editing software as a means of expression and communication. It was my intention to select a diverse array of artists that focus on various subjects and techniques to execute their work. The show will present fragments of traditional video art, aspects of performance based art, narrative experimental film, and vanguard documentary. The works have been placed in a chronological order to be viewed one after another. I feel that each piece will add to what synthesizes fragments of a larger whole. The chronological flow of each piece creates a perceptual module. Video Synthesis will be shown on: Wednesdays @ 1 pm - 2 pm Thursdays @ 6 pm - 7 pm Sundays @ 1 pm - 2 pm All screenings are in the Media Room at: The QCC Art Gallery Queensborough Community College The City University of New York 222-05 56th Avenue Bayside, NY 11364 | |
