old Tech new Tech

September 9 – November 1, 2015

Opening Reception: Thursday, September 17, 6-8pm

Curator: Maddy Rosenberg

Here at CENTRAL BOOKING, we have previously avoided technology exhibitions in order to concentrate on the pure sciences. But in the spirit of embracing all branches of thought and practices in the art and science realm, it seemed time to confront technology head on in various stages of its development. With this exhibition, we see the use of technology to enhance materials and media in the hands of artists, a collaboration of the technical with the aesthetic. Work that is not about technology but where technology is incorporated into the work seamlessly in a way that it becomes essential to the concept of the work. The collaborations with scientists and engineers are ones that bring a dimension to the work that is beyond the technical.
