The Moving Image: Scan to Screen, Pixel to Projection
Apr 12, 2009 - Sep 26, 2009
This exhibition of work from the Museum's permanent collection traces experiments with electronic media art from the late 1960s to the present day. It begins with a gallery of pioneering early single-channel video work from the 1970s that evolved from sculpture, and body-oriented performances. Subsequent galleries have room-sized video installations that first emerged with the advent of new projection technologies in the 1980s and also more recent work in digital media from the past decade.
The Moving Image: Scan to Screen, Pixel to Projection features an international roster of artists including: Eija-Liisa Ahtila, Cory Arcangel, Jeremy Blake, Kota Ezawa, Chris Burden, John Baldessari, Isaac Julien, Christian Marclay, Frankie Martin, Rodney McMillian, Kelly Nipper, Yoshua Okon, John Oswald, Tony Oursler, Nam June Paik, Alan Rath, Robin Rhode, Pipilotti Rist, Shirley Shor, George Stone, Tim Sullivan, Diana Thater, Hank Willis Thomas, Kambui Olujumi, Mungo Thomson, Kerry Tribe, Bill Viola, and William Wegman.
